Super Impresive.
I think he hit like 800 x 8 in training too? Thats almost as impressive as the big pull!
Does bolton have the all-time total today? I think he must be getting close.

It would look even more impressive if he had used 20 regular gym plates.  |

Is it me or does it look like he didn't fully lock it out? He also seemed like he looked at the judges to see if he was red-lighted, but they approved it. I think they got caught up in the moment Oh well it passed and that's all that matters now, a 4-digit pull is one hell of a feat. |

Light weight, Chuck Norris can deadlift more using his index finger. Only his right one though, as he broke his left one attempting a 3000 pounds deadlift.
