Russia&#8217;s Mikhail Shivlyakov currently holds the official Master&#8217;s World Record thanks to a pull of 436 kilograms (962 pounds) from the 2020 World&#8217;s Ultimate Strongman (WUS) &#8220;Feats of Strength&#8221; series.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"heinlas-deadlift-journey\">Heinla&#8217;s Deadlift Journey<\/h2>\n<p>It&#8217;s been an eventful past few months for Heinla around the strongman sphere. After a decade-plus-long absence (2011) according to <a href=\"https:\/\/strongmanarchives.com\/viewAthlete.php?id=265\" data-lasso-id=\"119717\"><em>Strongman Archives<\/em><\/a>, the Estonian athlete was set to compete in the <a href=\"https:\/\/breakingmuscle.com\/tom-stoltman-wins-2022-worlds-strongest-man\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" data-lasso-id=\"119479\">2022 World&#8217;s Strongest Man (WSM)<\/a>. Unfortunately, after an undisclosed injury following a Silver Dollar deadlift attempt, Heinla eventually <a href=\"https:\/\/breakingmuscle.com\/strongman-rauno-heinla-withdraws-2022-worlds-strongest-man\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" data-lasso-id=\"119718\">withdrew from his return<\/a> to strongman&#8217;s most prestigious competition.<\/p>\n<p>Approximately a month later, while apparently recovered from his injury, Heinla&#8217;s persistence paid off. In June 2022, he broke <a href=\"https:\/\/breakingmuscle.com\/sean-hayes-silver-dollar-deadlift-world-record-1235-pounds\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" data-lasso-id=\"119481\">Sean Hayes&#8217;<\/a> previous Silver Dollar deadlift World Record with a pull of <a href=\"https:\/\/breakingmuscle.com\/strongman-rauno-heinla-silver-dollar-deadlift-world-record-1278-pounds\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" data-lasso-id=\"119482\">579.7 kilograms (1,278 pounds)<\/a>. A couple of weeks later, Heinla smashed a 420-kilogram (926-pound) traditional deadlift for <a href=\"https:\/\/breakingmuscle.com\/strongman-rauno-heinla-deadlift-926-pounds-4-reps\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" data-lasso-id=\"119719\">four reps in training<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>The Silver Dollar World Record is merely another significant pulling feat for Heinla. He previously set the current all-time 400-kilogram (881.8-pound) deadlift for reps World Record with six at the 2020 WUS &#8220;Feats of Strength&#8221; series. The Estonian strongman is also one of the few people to have ever deadlifted at least 453.6 kilograms (1,000 pounds).
