British strongmen break the two-man world deadlift record…twice

Pick-up artists...

Breaking one world record is pretty impressive, but doing it twice in a day is just showing off…

And British strongmen Eddie Hall and Mark Felix are the biggest show-offs in town…literally.

These two giants pulled off not one, but two world record lifts in the two-man deadlift at the World’s Strongest Team competition

Team Saxon, as they are collectively known, beat the 755kg record by 12kg – but then smashed it again with a monstrous lift of 775kg.

Just watch that bar bend.

Not even Thor Bjornsson, of Game of Thrones fame, and his Team Viking could challenge them.

Here’s Eddie breaking the one-man deadlift world record earlier this year.

Well, if we ever need anything heavy lifting, we will probably be calling in these two…
