I love how there is NO ego by both, but especially by someone (Eddie) who is considered to be the strongest man in the world ( or one of them, not to insult others) and being comfortable enough to show on camera his limitations and weaknesses. This is actually inspiring.
Vor MonatBaldr 🏴
@Nick O Even if there’s “a bit of an ego” that’s still being super humble. He’s still downplaying himself. For example, a legendary guitarist isn’t gonna go around saying “I suck at guitar, I’m the worst” to seem humble. Because obviously that’s not true. They’ll downplay it, casually talk about how great others are and how much better the others may be in certain areas. There’s a difference between being egotistical vs having confidence in your skill set. You should have confidence if you’re amazing at something, doesn’t make you not humble. Being egotistical is acting as though you’re better at everything and closing your mind off to new things you may learn from. Which obviously he doesn’t do.
Vor 12 Tagethe_vm
If you watched Eddie competing, he would always push himself to the limit. He often passes out right on camera, and it's normal to him. When you wanna be the best, that's a small price to pay. Well, that, and a permanent lack of hydration. (lol)

@Nick O My friend, they are on the top of "their" world. Especially Eddie. Even if there is a little bit like you say, it's totally understandable. I mean, if I compare him with Dwayne Johnson, Eddie is as humble as a monk... assuming the monk is doing his job right... lol

@Batalha i am far from naive mr, i am one of my countrys hardest opponents towards doping.... The point is that testing in MA sports is significantly less than many other sports
Vor 3 TageBatalha
@MrKveite1 Stop being naive, there is no such thing as a doping free sport, even in the ones with testing in the Olympics. Testing can in fact make things worse when there is corruption, since some might be on and get a pass while others don't, this has happened with Olympic weightlifting for decades... I don't know why it's so hard for you to respect the champion strongmen when they have outperformed others that were also on steroids dude, maybe on even crazier dosages than themselves... You are acting like it's just the winners who use it, the others do too, leveling the playing field, the determining factor becomes work ethic, quality of the training, natural gift, working around injuries...
Vor 3 TageMrKveite1
@Kbells Let me put it this way, if the strongmen where doping free i would be impressed but they are not so i am not. When those guys are tested regularly and the odds are they are actually clean we can come back to the theme....

@MrKveite1 Being considered as the world's strongest man isn't amazing for you? Man, you must be really hard to impress. You have to be holding yourself to such a high standard, if you think that what Eddie achieved isn't amazing. You must be achieving things you would consider yourself as normal and amazing by most. But if you're not, you must consider yourself mediocre, otherwise you would be delusional. I wonder how hard it would be for you to be happy for yourself if that's the case.

I didn't even mention bodybuilders in the first place, but I know the difference between strongmen, powerlifters and bodybuilders. I don't think you do though, which is ok if you don't, but then you need to be careful when trying to school others on the subject to avoid making a fool of yourself.
Vor MonatBelal Abu Sultan
@Apotekare Nossnotna I think you are mixing power lifting with body-building, which is a fair mistake, practioners of both sports go to the same gym and use the same equipment, but one focus on getting stronger (power lifters), while the other focus on making their muscles look big and nice (body builders). as a mattrt of fact, most power lifters don't even have abs, and have a big belly instead.
Vor MonatApotekare Nossnotna
@Belal Abu Sultan That's not true. Larger muscles does not equal a harder punch. If that was the case, then all boxers would be built like strongmen or powerlifters. Bigger muscles actually slow you down.

Hey Magnus, just wanted to thank you for doing content like this showing people outside the normal climbing body type having fun climbing. I started watching you 8 months back and because of you started climbing 7 months ago. Your videos around that time with Isaac really got me hooked as I've always been very underweight. Climbing is the first time in my life I feel like I am working hard at getting good at a sport and improve my body for me, and not just doing typical gym to bulk up for everyone else. It's also the first time in my life I've been able to bulk real mass over a consistent time and am now about 20 lbs heavier than I've ever been before. Any day I am not too sore to train you can find me sitting in front of the Kilter board at my local gym, and I'm loving every second of it. So thanks again, and I hope one day I can run into you at a climbing gym and shake your hand in person.

Man, this has to be my favourite episode ever. They have such good chemistry. You can sense that Magnus is a bit on his guard around a big star like Eddie, but they seem to have hit it right off. And Eddie is such a good sport to Magnus' encouragement and very subtle teasing. Despite being simply intimidating physically, he's likeable to the degree of being cute. In a bigmouthed, bighearted, french bulldog kind of way. Remember, a bulldog that still could involuntarily crush you without noticing it. I was actually scared Magnus might get pancaked by Eddie simply rolling over at 17:35, forgetting he has invited a giant to the gym. Also I'm surprised that Eddie knows virtually nothing about climbing and has never tried it before. And even more surprised how well he does given that and his weight. You can tell he is absolutely up for any challenge. What a great match. So, now for the rest of the video.

@Mark Hickman I don't think you understand the comment or the context. In rock climbing you are encouraged to use your skeleton more than your muscles, someone had commented about Eddie keeping his arms straight and attributed this to him having a natural sense to do so. I was commenting that at his weight even if he wanted to engage his muscles instead of using a skeleton he would not be able to, he was keeping his arm straight because it would be absolutely ridiculous for him to try to muscle his way up more than one or two holds at his body weight. Make sense?

@Robert Long What do you mean by "with that much muscle, he doesn't move very well"? "That much" muscle is what is keeping him from "moving well". Even at a low 5 % body fat, the guy would still be weighing over 140 kg. He has built his body on the premise of moving heavy weight for a short duration of time. You don't get to be built like that from "moving well" in areas like calisthenics. How do you expect someone with that much muscle mass to "move well"?

I had so much fun watching Eddie! He's so good it's insane! I totally didn't expecting him to do so well. When he got so far in the blue first try I was impressed, and Magnus was so excited too. The guy is really friendly as well, his constant swearing is too funny

I remember doing rock climbing with rope in highschool. Watching Magnus do this makes me want to do it again, I really did enjoy doing it back then.

This guy is great, love his personality! And I also love that, as great as Magnus is, he doesn’t look down on anyone’s climbing level at all

Eddie is a phenomenal athlete. A man his weight and size making some of these climbs is just amazing. Much respect.

His size he shouldnt really be jumping from heights He is vulnerable to disc injuries. Dudes like him doesnt have the strongest cores? He weighs so much. His body isnt built for it I recently injured mine. And it is paintful to see him doing it I wonder how rock climbers dont have back issues by jumping from heights. Our bodies arent made for it we are not monkeys either lol

Honestly, big props to Eddie for doing so well. That's a whole lot of human going against gravity 😅

I never was an Eddie fan until I watched the Strongest Men, or Man, on History channel. I loved that series and even watched it twice. Those guys are so endearing and real. Now I'm a huge fan of all four.

His focus and familiarity with his own body really shows by advancing so quickly on his first day.

Magnus, I want to Thank You for this video. You are the second person to give me the confidence to learn climbing by having someone like Eddie on your channel. I've been losing weight and he's about 45 kg or 100 pounds more than I am. And Thank You as well Eddie. You are definitely a beast!

As a long time climber, and fan of Magnus and this channel I just wanted to say that I miss the climber's climbing videos. Don't get me wrong, I still enjoy all the newer content - especially as it has certainly given public reach to the accessibility and awesomeness of climbing. Its just that as a climber, I would love to see a return of some strict hard bouldering videos. Personally I'd love to see a collaboration with Eric Karlsson bouldering for a crazy difficult set by Nikken - but I would also just love to watch a solid 30 minutes of strenuous bouldering, outdoor, in a gym, or even on a kilter board. Well here's my hope for that to come true! Thanks for all the good climbing content over the years!

Eddy Hall did amazing. The best video I saw of Eddy was when he picked his son up from school in an armoured personal carrier. Eddy made his day and had a great afternoon out with his boy.
Vor MonatRelaxation Channel
Wow, he did so well on that first attempt for blue! Imagine how strong he would have to be to do that at 170 KGs!

Haven't even finished watching yet, but I'm having so much fun watching Eddie doubt, swear, try anyway, and succeed. Life lessons from elite athletes of all shapes and sizes. Good one, Magnus!
