Hafthor Björnsson and Daniel Bell, two of the strongest men in the world, showcased their remarkable pulling strength once again. Björnsson, a strongman, and Bell, a powerlifter, exhibited their unique power at the 2023 Arnold Sports Festival (ASF) Expo.
On March 4, 2023, Björnsson achieved a 395-kilogram (870.8-pound) raw deadlift from a conventional stance with a mixed grip. In a friendly deadlift competition later on, Bell matched Björnsson by pulling 395 kilograms (870.8 pounds) raw with a mixed grip from a narrow stance. Both athletes only used a lifting belt to assist with their feats.
