He’s long pursued Mark Felix’s world record on the Rolling Thunder, and now it’s official: Alexsey Tyukalov owns the mark, with a 150.5 kg success at the grip strength contest held in conjunction with the A1 Armwrestling Tournament in Moscow.

The materials submitted were reviewed by a panel IronMind uses as backup to the local referee’s call and determined it was a good lift, making Alexey Tyukalov the man to beat on one of the most prestigious  challenges in the grip strength world.

Congratulations, Alexey: take a look at the Rolling Thunder Rules and World Records page and give yourself a well-earned pat on the back.
