It did look very easy, and he held the bar forever after the down signal.

That is the greatest single feat of strength I have ever seen. Easy pull and he
stands up grinning. He says 1100 is his goal. Great job Benni.

A friend of mine said "ya but look at the bar bend,doesn't look like a regulation bar."
As I rained down blows upon him,I knew there
had to be a better way!
"Its 1015,any bar on earth would bend" I yelled!
All I can say is jaw on the floor awesome!

Well, to be honest, a lot of bars wouldn't bend.  They'd snap.

Word is that he went for 1010 but due to the plate configuration, the collars didn't have much to bite on so they asked he if would go to 1015 so they could use 35s on the end and the collars would fit. Benni said "ok." Obviously had no problem with that extra 5 pounds.

I'm a little late to the party...just got back from vacation...BUT, oh my freakin' God! How easy was that pull?! Look at the speed of the bar leaving the floor...simply incredible.

Who was the guy psyching him up in the background?! and how often do you see him "in the background" at these events?! Wonder if they had an IHOP out there for Stefan to visit?!

Remarkable.  The thing that amazes me the most about this is not how strong his legs/back must be, but the grip strength that he has to be able to hold on and get that weight off of the ground.

I've heard numerous stories from former IFSA strongmen that Zydrunas Savickas and Vidas Blekaitis would sit facing each other and rub each others ears before
events. Awkward.

So...at the Celtic, do we allow extra time for "ear rubbing"?
