  • A video of Paul Anderson doing squat partials and people are arguing about evolution and race.

    Gotta love youtube.

  • @Henzzman Yep that is another problem I have with todays lifters. They are assisted so who knows how much they can lift. I want to see just a 1000 pound raw squat let alone 1200. Paul was a great man of God. I really respect him and what he did with his boys home.

see all

  • for everyone who doesn;t know but  Paul Anderson could hold almoust 2 tons about 19 people ,,nobody will be able to achive his recorrd

  • f.y.i. panjabiwarrior completely denies that paul anderson even existed,let alone gold in the olympics.hes a discrace to the weightlifting community as a whole.

  • 5ft 9 inches,@330lbs-360lbs,36inch thighs.627 bench,1206 squat,820lb deadlift-pulled 1000lbs with metal hooks,clean and jerk-480lbs[unofficial],push press-600lbs,1 arm press-380lbs,backlift-6270lbs[­guiness world record],squat-9oox10[witnessed by john grimek],squat 800x 10 for 2 sets-witnessed by pat casey,olympic strict press-425x3,400x7-1957,best olympic press-575lbs.

  • in pauls own words he squatted 1200.his biography,best lifts with witnesses,and a letter written to explain why he said he never had a coach is all there.he still holds the world record in the OLYMPIC PRESS @565lbs.1800lb quarter squat etc.there all in writing,on the internet available anytime.take a good look.

  • wasn't really a squat but i know this guy is jacked and its insane he can lift that up in the first place

  • @89orangejuice Check out the book by Dr. Randy Strosson about Paul "The Mightiest Minister" Randy's web site is called IronMind. His mag is Milo

  • @Alexostev i meant ton's not tones lol.

    1 metric ton.

    i also re calculated his back lift which is 2.85 metric ton's. sorry for any confussion.

  • right i did a wiki check on how heavy one gallon of concrete weighs! it weighs 17.91 pounds.

    so 2 55 gallon drums = 110 gallons.

    110 x 17.91 =1970.1 pounds

    1970.1 divide by 2.2 = 895.5 kilograms of weight.

    that's not including the weight of the steal barrels or the Bar he's using.

    i reckon he actualy lifted there abwt 1 metric tone.

    if u don't believe it then ask urself this wer in the world did he get the strength to do a 6200+ back lift which is 2.87 metric tones!!!!!!!!!! have fun

  • @phirephaxL

    only guys with bad technique pull more than they can squat. It is way harder to start in the low position because you can't utilize the stretch reflex. that's why it's much harder to bench with a pause.

    this is no legal squat of course but still fucking impressive. anderson squatted 1000 and also won a gold medal at the olympics. greatest strength athlete of all time.

  • how heavy are those barrels?
