No doubt. John Beatty has had a contest for HW pros with a tire flip medley. One of them weighed 1300, and I think at least Ostlund did it.

Russian? RUSSIAN? Are you serious? I'm much closer to Thor than Omega Red. My beard and my blood are red, not my politics.

If someone has the same question as mine, about Big Ben's real name, I have an answer that I recently found out. His real name is Ben Ryan, and he's a new actor so there isn't much info about him...
Nope, no world record. A heavy tire, yes but the video doesn't even make sense. He grips it in the middle (which you do NOT do on a tire flip), then magically, he's underneath it. A fine promo shot featuring a guy who is probably very strong, but it's neither a world record nor is it even showing a valid flip.
Regardless, it's about freakin' time to get a guy who is solidly built in the role of an action film again. Enough with padded suits and all that crap.

1) I've done a heavier tire, and I'm not even all that good.
2) Ironman = running, swimming and biking. Strongman = picking up heavy stuff. Learn the difference.
Fat Veg is exactly right - there is no way he would've been able to make the transition from his full extension (at which point the bottom of the tire was maybe 6" off the ground) to getting under the tire. Anyone who's actually flipped a heavy tire (key word: heavy) can confirm this.
