Additionally, in a display of sheer strength, Hause initiated his performance with an astounding 409-kilogram (901.7-pound) squat. Furthermore, unfazed by the weight, he proceeded to increase the challenge with a 25-kilogram (55.1-pound) jump for his second attempt, already surpassing existing records. Moreover, not one to settle, Hause aimed higher for his third attempt, obliterating the U140KG All-Time World Record with an awe-inspiring 440-kilogram (970-pound) lift.
Remarkably, Hause opted for minimal equipment, donning only a lifting belt and knee sleeves, both permissible in the raw division. Moreover, as he positioned himself beneath the barbell, a rivulet of blood adorned his forehead, a testament to the intensity of the lift. Furthermore, noteworthy was the use of a monolift, a specialized rack that retracts upon lifting the barbell, eliminating the need for backward steps and conserving energy. Also, with calculated precision, Hause descended and ascended with remarkable speed, claiming the U140KG All-Time Raw Squat World Record previously held by Shane Haller at 420 kilograms (925.9 pounds), achieved in the 2022 WRPF Ghost Clash.
