Mexican strongman Raúl “Tayzon” Flores has set a new deadlift world record after successfully lifting 511kg (1,127 lb) at the 2026 World Deadlift Championships during the Giants Live Strongman Open.

The 26-year-old surpassed Hafþór Júlíus Björnsson’s previous 510kg record, becoming one of only three men to have officially lifted more than 500kg in the deadlift, alongside Björnsson and Eddie Hall.

Flores’ record-breaking lift came after previous attempts at 515kg and 511kg earlier this year. The successful 511kg pull now puts his name at the top of the sport’s deadlift record books.

Björnsson and Hall both congratulated Flores on the historic achievement.

A British-Nigerian businessman died following cosmetic complications at a Bangkok clinic, a United Kingdom coroner's inquest ruled recently.

Igho “Tiny” Ubiribo, 43, suffered a fatal pulmonary embolism after receiving injections of hyaluronic acid and lidocaine. The coroner's report stated that cellular filler material entered Ubiribo's bloodstream during the $9,000 procedure, directly blocking blood flow to his lungs.

The medical emergency began shortly after the treatment while Ubiribo visited a local massage business with his wife, fashion designer Danielle Simba Allen. Ubiribo complained of severe chest pains and collapsed twice before emergency services transported him to Sukhumvit Hospital.

Medical staff at the Bangkok facility administered CPR for over 100 minutes before declaring him dead in the early hours of March 6. The postmortem examination conducted upon his repatriation to the United Kingdom confirmed the presence of the cosmetic filler inside his lung tissue.
