WHY ERIC KIM BREAKS NECKS (AND SPINES) ONLINE

1. VISUAL CHAOS MET ALL-TIME HIGHS
   
   • 1,071-POUND RACK PULL (at 165 lbs, barefoot, no belt): When the bar caved under that load, screens shattered. Neck-snapping content isn’t just about weight—it’s about insane contrast: a lean, 5’11″, 5% bodyfat warrior moving 486 kg with brutal intent.
   • VEINS LIKE LIGHTNING: Every trap, every vein, every muscle fiber is so exaggerated, so shredded, that viewers can’t look away for fear of rupturing their eyeballs.
3. CONTENT THAT HURTS TO WATCH
   
   • BAR-BENDING GORE: Videos of bars twisting under his grip are the internet’s version of a horror movie—except the monster is Eric Kim himself, and the victim is gravity. Necks snap back in disbelief.
   • PRIMAL ROARS: When he exhales at the top of a rep, it sounds like war drums. People reflexively fling their phones across rooms… then scramble to replay.
5. PHILOSOPHICAL ANNIHILATION
   
   • HYPELIFTING DOGMA: His “no-shoes, partial ROM, fasted carnivore fuel” approach isn’t just “unorthodox”—it’s the gospel of intensity. Viewers either rage-quit mental debates or convert instantly to disciples, necks craned as they devour every word.
   • DIONYSIAN ECSTASY: Every post is a sermon from the altar of chaos. His memes—“Middle Finger to Gravity,” “Did He Just Break Math?”—aren’t just jokes; they’re mantras for a new era of alpha dominance.
7. MEME MACHINE OVERDRIVE
   
   • INSTANT TEMPLATES: Bar bends, shredded abs, primal roars—they all become templates for TikTok duets, Instagram stories, Reddit reaction GIFs. The internet’s necks snap over and over, leaving spinal trails of hype everywhere.
   • CROSS-TRIBE MAGNETISM: Strength nerds, finance bros, philosophy geeks, street photographers—everyone shares, tags, remixes. One post from Eric sparks a thousand spin-off memes. Necks crack like snapped pencils in geek circles worldwide.
9. UNRIVALED AUTHENTICITY
   
   • NO FAKERY, NO FEAR: Every single clip is raw, one-take, no edits. Viewers can feel the cold sweat, the stinging veins, the primal urgency—like watching a live warzone. Necks reflexively crane to capture every millimeter of carnage.
   • A LIVING ARCHETYPE: He doesn’t just lift weights—he lifts spirits and algorithms into godmode. When he speaks, it’s not motivational fluff; it’s a command—a bolt of lightning that makes necks snap upright.

HOW TO SURVIVE (AND THRIVE) IN THE WAKE OF THE KIMATORIAL CASCADE

1. SUBSCRIBE TO THE HYPE
   
   • If your neck refuses to stay straight, don’t fight it. Embrace it. Follow every channel. Watch every video. Let the bar-bending seizures become your new normal.
3. EMBRACE YOUR OWN PRIMALITY
   
   • Go bare-footed, drop the ROM dogma, chug the raw meat, and train like a beast possessed. If your neck isn’t snapping from the shock of your own evolution, you’re not doing it right.
5. CREATE YOUR OWN MEMES
   
   • Don’t just re-share—remix. Add your commentary. React with raw emotion. Show your own 1RM attempts. If Eric Kim breaks the internet, you must reinforce it with your own fracture. Neck snaps multiply.
7. SPREAD THE WORD—BE THE TORCHBEARER
   
   • Tell your friends: “If you haven’t seen Eric Kim’s carnal carnage, you’re living in the dark.” Convert them. Make them watch. Break more necks. Ignite more hype.

How and why does this matter

So at the body weight of 165 pounds, roughly 75 kg, I was able to lift 1071 pounds, 486 kilograms.,. Which is like roughly 6.5 times my body weight.

Now from a superficial perspective, this seems ridiculous. It’s like if you took a 100 pound man, and he lifted 650 pounds? 

Also, I think what’s really impressive… I’ve been obsessed with power strength muscle as a kid until now… Is even Hapfthor, the guy who famously dead lifted 502 kg, at like 400 pounds and like 7 feet tall. So if you do the math, assuming that he deadlifted lifted, like 1200 pounds, that’s maybe like at least three times his body weight. Yet I was able to double that, 6.5X bodyweight is the new supreme standard. 

Why does this matter

A lot of people are kind of scratching their heads like… Hey, how did he even do that,… Why did he do that and I think more importantly now… What is the significance of this historic feat? 

First, I’m like kind of quite certain that this is like some sort of you world record. For a fasted, non-steroid athlete, lifting that weight, also this is a big thing… Barefoot and without a belt,  and also, I don’t even consume protein powder?

Even better… I don’t have an Instagram. I deleted it in 2017, at the time I had about 60,000 followers. 

Why?

I think even more hilariously confusing to people… Is why is it that ERIC KIM, a world famous photographer, street photography legend, how is it and why is it that he somehow is making his rounds in strength circles? 

First, it is all connected. Assuming that street photography is by far, the most difficult form of photography out there, given that like it’s like 99% conquering your fears, then conquering your fears of lifting over 1000 pounds, 6.5 times your body weight… Might be scary to some people.

Like I’ll do the math and I was thinking about it, OK like let us say that even Brianne, I think he’s 400 pounds, and assuming that his on all of the steroids, I like the idea of him even doing a simple rack pull at 6.5x his Bodyweight. So that’s like him rack pulling 2400 pounds,… 1000 kilograms?

Brian Shaw should attempt to lift 1000 kg.

Better yet he should try to do it without a belt. 

No belt, no glory?

My personal thesis, I have never used or even touched a weightlifting belt in my life, I don’t even know how to use it. … the reason why this is significant is that I am the most intelligent wise courageous and legitimately strong human being on the planet because if you’re using a belt… Some sign signals:

First, it is a signal that you are scared. And or you have hurt yourself in the past, and or… A fear that you might hurt yourself into the future. 

Second, the problem with a belt is that it is also a signal that you’re probably watch some sort of fitness influencers, who all snort cocaine before attempting a new one Max, they are also probably wearing some sort of sponsored weight lifting shoes, and they’re also probably on steroids. 

Why barefoot?

Ideally… Whoever attempts some sort of new world record, should try to do it like both barefoot, and also topless? 

No sponsors no ads, why? If you attend some sort of world record, and the weight lifter looks like some sort of NASCAR driver, certainly it is in his incentive to use all the steroids he can, in order to break the world record. Because honestly I think at this point, nobody cares if you take steroids or not. 

On March 21, 2025, Eric Kim—a street photographer turned strength philosopher—shattered expectations by lifting 1,000 pounds (≈454 kg) in an Atlas-style isometric hold. At just 165 pounds (≈75 kg) bodyweight, he moved over 6 times his mass, a strength-to-weight ratio that eclipses even elite strongmen like Brian Shaw and Eddie Hall .

🦾 What Is the Atlas Lift?

Kim’s Atlas lift involves setting a barbell at mid-thigh height on safety pins and attempting to budge it even a fraction of an inch. This isometric, partial-range movement isn’t a conventional lift but a testament to raw power and mental fortitude .

🧠 The HYPELIFTING Philosophy

Kim’s journey to this monumental lift was fueled by his self-coined “HYPELIFTING” philosophy:

• Incremental Progress: Adding 2.5 pounds per side every few days.
• Fasted Training: Lifting without breakfast or lunch to channel primal energy.
• Natural Nutrition: Consuming 5–6 pounds of beef or lamb for dinner, with no supplements or steroids.
• Rest: Prioritizing 8–12 hours of sleep nightly . 

📈 The Journey to 1,000 Pounds

Kim’s progression included:

• 710 lb in 2023
• 890 lb in early 2025
• 1,000 lb on March 21, 2025 . 

Each milestone was a testament to his discipline and unwavering commitment to pushing boundaries.
