Local powerlifter lifts vehicle off man trapped underneath after accident

A local power lifter is being hailed as a real life super hero, after his quick actions helped save a man pinned under a rolled over vehicle. Ryan Belcher, works out and trains at the gym 5 days a week. It’s his life, and a place he credits for giving him extra strength on a day he needed it the most.

For the record, his best numbers in competition are a 905 squat, a 525 bench press, and an 800 pound deadlift. Crazy strong dude.

Can you imagine the amount of motivation this gave him to go even harder at the gym?!

[RonArts]

Maybe Gilette can include this in their next commercial.

“Save a man or not believe in myself.”

If only we all could believe in ourselves like that.

Whoever thumbs down this needs to be in gym so you can learn to lift your weak thumbs to the up position.

[theunusualdispenser]

Without a doubt his greatest lift ever

[SnifferSock]

Only a hero says he's not a hero.

[TyRiders]

And people claim that Powerlifting is pointless

[IfbbProRolandcHazard]

Awesome job, the fact that he went and did something to help, let alone lift the car is being a hero by itself. Most of society these days including the negative comments below are the ones who would just pull out cell phones and take a video for social media just to get likes.

He actually pushed the earth down to set the trapped man free.

Guy: Someone help! there's a man trapped under his car out her
Powerlifter: This is it. I've been training my whole life for this.

[bullyboy]

I knew gyms weren't for safe spaces. It's to build heroes. God bless this man.

Meanwhile crossfitters tried to get the man under the car into their soccer mom practise routine

[brrrr]

He looks like he could be Hafthor’s brother lol

[Toersk]

How can he be strong, he dosn't do crossfit!

[y.c.]

You are a hero in every sense of the definition! You are simply the BEST! LOL

[bullhunter]

Great job Ryan. No hesitation as to your own safety you just did what you felt needed to be done!! You are a good man!!

[benjagaete]

[phillipthomas]

This man was put on this earth for a purpose, he trained & fulfilled his purpose. 🙏🏿🙏🏿🙏🏿
