PERTHPOWER Posted October 12, 2007 Share Posted October 12, 2007 (edited) http://bhsasec.proboards75.com/index.cgi?a...0218&page=1 Who's it going to be? Who will set the NEW Rolling Thunder Record? Will it be Mark? Will it be Steve? or will Laine keep it in his grasp? Edited October 12, 2007 by PERTHPOWER Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
viper Posted October 12, 2007 Author Share Posted October 12, 2007 pictures an what you see on tv doesn't get the message across about just how big felix hands actually are, dudes sorta like a muscled up praying mantus with those things, you could put him in a comic book! as far as handing him a gripper - he cant do much with em, there not made for hands his size, though i have told both him and his wife about hg400/500, supposed to be looking into it so maybe he will go for the 500, i would have had mine with me when i met him had i have known he was gonna be there Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It looked like a standard handle in his hands. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gather Posted October 14, 2007 Share Posted October 14, 2007 The most impressive thing is its a bramd new handle, slick as hell, anyway about 300lb im sure i read a story on ironmind.com bout some guy lifting 300 on rollin thunder but he dropped it on the way down so it didnt count, it might have been mark henry.

gumpster Posted October 14, 2007 Share Posted October 14, 2007 I just noticed another picture of Mark Felix on the next page from the one posted earlier. It's from a strongman competition and Mark is walking next to another guy who is most respects is almost identical in height/size/weight. The one thing that caught my eye was the size of his hands compared to the other guy, specifically his thumb and finger size. The other guy has what would probably be normal sized hands for a guy of his frame, but Mark's are definitely on the order of freakish. Here's link to the pic...hope it works.

twig Posted October 14, 2007 Share Posted October 14, 2007 That's Kevin Nee, isn't it? He must be stood a fair bit closer to the camera than Mark. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JS27 Posted October 14, 2007 Share Posted October 14, 2007 That is Kevin Nee. He looks like he is a step or two ahead of Felix. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alawadhi Posted October 29, 2007 Share Posted October 29, 2007 (edited) 292 pounds is HUGE. He will get the 300 pounds and maybe more if he wants to. He just started to "play" with the RT. Edited October 29, 2007 by Alawadhi Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

amaury Posted October 29, 2007 Share Posted October 29, 2007 This is ridiculous! In a good way of course. What after the RTWR? Millenium C&J ? Now that would be a nice challenge Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gather Posted November 27, 2007 Share Posted November 27, 2007 This is about felix's 300 lift on RT. I messaged the guy who posted it on youtube about the questions everyone has regarding the authenticity and this was his reply-"if & when there is a competition we will see what he can lift....4 x 25's, 1x15, 1x10,1x5, 1x2.5 & the pin & handle ....this is just for fun...he didnt hold it because this was his 3rd rep...."

mobsterone Posted November 27, 2007 Share Posted November 27, 2007 I think the 'guy' is his wife. But cheers for that - it's exactly what I said. IM have recently taken to releasing several 'news' items based on gym lifts and worse conjecture. No offense to Mark or his better half but IM have in the past been quite strict with how a claim is made and although the word 'unofficial' has been used they've then plugged it again and again.
