It was the first I'd ever seen the feat and I've never seen it since. I was working with a very crappy system back then, so forgive the poor quality. I reference this feat in my Card Tearing eBook.

Author: JeddJohnson Added: Wed, 24 Jun 2009 17:33:03 -0800 Duration: 0Following the Woodall Grip Challenge on June 20, 2009, several athletes tried closing a couple of the easier #4 grippers that were on hand. Some #4 grippers ended up coming out much lighter than the rest of the #4 product line and are actually quite closable. In this video, Steve Gardener closes 2 separate #4 grippers. I came fairly close, as did Aaron Corcorran as well. He has closed this gripper previously, but not after just completing a full grip strength competition.

The Two Hands Pinch is two 6 mm steel plates with rubber inserts between them. The inserts are 6mm and 10mm and can be used to vary the thickness of the implement to allow the competitors to use widths that compliment the size of their hands. There is a hole inside of the plates and inserts to allow for extra weight to be added on. The object is to grab the implement with both hands in a picnh grip and lift the implement high enough for the pipe to touch the cross bar 16.5 inches off the ground. Here, I pinch 230, 240, and 245 pounds at the Woodall Annual Grip Challenge on June 20, 2009.

The handle is thick and tries to rotate out of your hand in a ripping effect, just like the inch dumbbell. I use this device for swings, similar to the basic movement trained with kettlebells. I get a great thick bar workout for my hands and a great swing workout for the posterior chain. My best set of 3 swings was with 180 lbs on a loading pin connected the Nightmare. http://www.CardTearing.com

I used a strong cord to attach the weights, but it kept sliding off, so I had to finally duct tape. It really does come in handy!

Currently there is a major push in the grip community to lift as much weighted added to the blob as possible. The current top lift is about 75 total pounds. My best ever is blob plus 20 but I haven't done it for about a year. Just this past weekend I worked up to 20 lbs added again and was able to hold it easy at the top.
