In February earlier this year at RUM VII, Paul Nguyen established himself as one of the best deadlifters in the world by breaking the existing world record deadlift of 716 held by the undisputed king of the 165ers Vashon Perryman. Perryman used to being so far ahead, had some thunder taken from him when Paul pulled a 717 lb lift! Today at ths SPF Brute Strength Halloween Howl Paul proved it was no fluke! Just missing weight at 167 pounds Paul pulled 650, 720 and finally a 740 pound lift that by formula currently is the best raw deadlift on the planet! Paul took it easy in the squat (injury) and still made a 500 lb squat. He benched 325 just missing 350 before he began his pulls.
