450 body weight X 2.5 is 1125
I'm twice his age 148# X 2.5 is 370. I pull 360, NO STRAPS, NO BELT, NO SUIT in a conventional DL.
So, excuse me for saying, I ain't impressed. You’re right.. 360 vs 1125 is most unimpressive.

Wonder how much Andre The Giant could have lifted if he would have weight trained
I got banned on another web site for a debate that happened on this site. That's a first

Pretty sure he suffered from giantism so it is likely his system wouldn't have handled the strain. Give that thor bloke his due, he has a robust system and a good bone structure.

Crazy power
I was hoping he’d take a 4th attempt at 510-520. Maybe when the Rona is gone and everything is open he will go to a comp and hit 510-520.
When I die I hope I don't start voting democrat.

How'd you like to be a 5' 9" English man at arms and see something like that step off the Viking ship...
Gunnery, gunnery, gunnery. Hit the target, all else is twaddle!

The real question is how that guy didn't split that girlfriend in two. One of the side effects of steroid use would lead me to think she wood not get split in two. I work out seriously 4x per week and am in the company of many guys just like Thor. I wouldn’t take steroids for all the tea in ?China. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XjiIirDgHzI

I wouldn't mess with him. Be a handy guy to have around for changing a motor out.

An other worldly amount of training and genetics to achieve that, no matter how many roids your pumping.
Good for him. Hope he lives a long and happy life.
Doubtful any human has ever lived, yes even a Viking, that was ever that big and strong.

Don't blame me. I voted for Trump.
Democrats would burn this country to the ground, if they could rule over the ashes.

Walked past him at the WSM in Florida last year. I’m not a small guy, but he’s a fuggin monster of a human. One of my friends and ex football teammates is 6’-7” and about 315. Thor made him look average.
