Giant’s Live director Colin Bryce said that after Terry Hollands posted his 440-kg strongman-style deadlift on YouTube, Brian Shaw was anything but cowed.
If you can deadlift a car for reps, among other feats of strength, you, too, can be like Terry Hollands and wear pink socks if you’d like—nobody’s likely to get too lippy. IronMind® | Randall J. Strossen photo.
“. . . I just texted Brian Shaw to ask how he feels about Terry Hollands’ 440-kg deadlift on YouTube last week,” Bryce reported. “He felt he was up for a 450! CAN YOU BELIEVE IT . . . .“
So, while the final number remains uncertain, what is all but a done deal is that strongman history is going to be made at Giants Live–London when they light up the Excel Centre.
Incidentally, both Terry Hollands and Brian Shaw will be competing at the Los Angeles FitExpo this weekend, as well, so here’s your chance to see them on both sides of the pond early this year.
