I’ll just leave this here. Suffice it to say that he’s got a Kung-Fu grip and a will to live!

My son is a college wrestler and does a ton of pull-ups during his workouts. We went to some amusement park and he did this game where you had to hold onto a bar off the ground for 2 minutes to get a prize. He held on for a little less than 1 min ! Granted it wasn't life or death, but what that guy did is one hell of a lot harder than it looks.

The guy didn’t strap him in, lol whoever didn’t do their job should get fired. They’re lucky guy held on and didn’t fall to his death.

he must work that arm out a lot in front of the computer to hold on for that long at speed. Need to pump up my numbers in case I'm ever in that situation

Yeah, that was discussed elsewhere. Everyone who isn't fat and claims they are sort of in shape, wants to claim they could hit the 1 minute mark but most can't. I guess there's been some public events like fitness expos, where for $5 or $10, you can try to dead hang 1 minute to win $100. I watched a clip and very few made it. Some were saying those contests are slightly rigged as the bar is thicker than most people would want to hang from and the bar has bearings thus it can rotate
