Indeed. Tall, skinny, gangly, and very big hands & fingers with incredible power. Imagine doing 10 sets of reps of pulls-ups but hanging on with only one finger at a time to get an idea. As if one-arm pull-ups weren't hard enough, pinky pull-ups are on a whole different level.
- mistermann 9y agoTen pull ups with one finger on only one arm?
- DoubleCribble 9y agoI can't find the video I want right now, but this has some nice visuals. Check out this climber planking around 0:39. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=igYhX5xyprw https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=igYhX5xyprw
- jojoo 9y agomaybe it was a video from magnus mitboe? https://youtu.be/BEc5uVsM6bE?t=1m33s https://youtu.be/BEc5uVsM6bE?t=1m33s or the 80ies oldschool classic; wolfgang guellich in a german gameshow: https://youtu.be/rugoETlUAVI?t=22m47s https://youtu.be/rugoETlUAVI?t=22m47s
- kinkrtyavimoodh 9y agoI won't call him gangly. He isn't even skinny in the sense most people assume (no muscle, stick figure). He seems to have a lot of lean muscle (http://media.npr.org/assets/img/2017/06/05/ap_17155772401614_custom-af740fc64b5b1082e8ee60ca2b865fe655c3ee4f-s1500-c85.jpg http://media.npr.org/assets/img/2017/06/05/ap_17155772401614...)
- DoubleCribble 9y agoNo? He looks gangly to me. gangly, adj., \ˈgaŋ-glē\ : long and thin [1] [1] https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/gangly https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/gangly
- CamperBob2 9y agoWatch the '60 Minutes' interview with him that somebody else linked to in the thread. His fingers are the size of household water pipes. It would be rude to call him a mutant, but that's pretty much what he is, for better or worse.
