Holy shit. Until I watched that I thought you were one of the youtube crazies who had crossed over to the nation.

Well played.

I saw a lot of people do that same weight at the Arnold for multiple reps. I have a very weak bench, so I didn’t even attempt it. However, I asked several people about it after they were done and most said it felt like around 225lbs. You also have to realize that there was only one guy spotting. With so many people trying it, someone would eventually have been injured.

The guy at the booth told me it was around 250. Watching that video, I doubt it was even that much.

You guys arent really having a serious discussion about this? They were fake plates, period. They do this frequently at the expo booths for fun.

Eh, why were there so many plates on the bar then? Was it advertised as an ego trip or a serious event?

Haha I saw that booth at the Arnolds and was wondering what was going on at it.

I was at the Arnold and talked to the guy at the booth. It weighs 235 lbs… It was pretty funny watching the people react to it though.

I seriously doubt the guy in the video puts 235 up 22 times… I’d bet it was closer to 100lbs.

It’s strange that you are using a picture of another T-Nation member as your avatar… It creeps me out for some reason.

AMAZING!

That of all the comments on youtube, not one of them realizes it’s fake. I truly am amazed at the stupidity of people.

I’m not sure if this was already posted but that was a booth at the Arnold Classic this year. I did the same event. It’s 250lbs worth of plates. They say 45lbs on it but they’re fake. I got done doing it and a guy was like “Omg, nice lifts man, how much!?”

They video taped it and sent it to your email with a bunch of spam basically.

Kids a fag too, he has to approve the comments so no one will be able to trash him and say it’s fake.

The kids posting on the comments are convinced that it’s just pretty impressive.

Hellooooo if he can rep 585 like that, he would be benching a grand easssssssssy

I dont know about that B.S. guy but I just watched the Ryan Kennely tape and I just want to know how I might be able to be 3 quarters as strong as him one day, or if its even possible for an average guy like me.
