It is the average genetics defeating gravity through years and years of hard work, shitload of food, enormous amounts of squats, and an iron will:
I present to you - Einar Gilberg - IPF lifter, here doing 300kg (the limit of shame) for the first time, wearing only a belt and knee sleeves (those do not help).
I salut the king of squat, this is the mother of all squat, it is the Einar squat! Essz!
– stallion
Being a person who has used knee sleeves, it is ignorant to say they don’t help.
This guy is still a badass, your comment about knee sleeves was just silly.
And why is 300kg the ‘limit of shame?’ Serious question, I’ve never heard that before.

Carry over to what?
I have two different ‘stiffnesses’ of knee sleeves, and I get carry over from both of them. Anything that makes it harder for your knee to bend is going to help.
Again, I’m not taking anything away from this guys lift, its still a great raw lift.

Einar Gilberg is wearing rehband knee sleeves. They are made of neoprene…not very stiff.
A man works his ass of for decenniums for a tremendous moment that last for a few seconds. He did this without ever being weak-minded and resorting to performance enhancing drugs.
Those who are unable to see this, respect it and give credit were credit are deserved, are small people in every meaning of the word.
Some people achive great things, while the sheep-people moan and bitch about anything at the slightest opportunity.
Let the debate rage, exhaust your fingers on your keyboard, I’ll go and squat with a smile on my face.

You’re weird kid.
I already made it clear that I was taking nothing away from his lift.
I already made it clear that I was taking away from your post about the knee sleeves. You could have posted any video you’d like, and if you had posted that ignorant comment, my question would have been the same.

How do you know that he doesn’t take “performance enhancers” and how would taking them make someone weak minded?
meh…
Stallion, this is very doable for you in a few years! arent you at like 260 kilo right now?

What the F. !!
thats some serious shit ! ive got bigger legs than that guy but i only squat half that !!!
im sad now…
Stallion, please fill us in on how taking “performan enhancers” are for the weak minded… Is Ryan Kenelly who gets under a bar with a 1,000lbs weak minded?
Don’t feed the trolls guys.
Let Stallion here have his little party/IPF circle-jerk and he’ll calm down and be reasonable for a few months before he does it again.

I have no idea, and if you know the crew personally then of course I’ll take your word for it.
Otherwise, all I’m saying is I see a green (50kg), a red (25kg), 3 dark blues (20kg each) and a yellow (15kg). If all the blues are 25kg, then it’s 350, if they arent it’s 320. I don’t understand why they would depart from the convention for colours, plus I’m a suspicious bastard, so I’m saying it looks like 320.
If I saw a bench with 5 blues that was claimed as a 700lb bench, I’d say it looked like 500.
It’s not a personal attack on the lifter (who I always assume isn’t the poster of video), or you. It’s an observation, and like I said if you know the crew personally then I will quite happily withdraw it.
Haha, as long as we’re doing Internet detective work, check out the bar in the stand in front of him, smokotime.
It has a red plate with black rubber, and the plate facing it has red rubber, too. Therefore we can deduce that they have black-rubbered 25 kilo plates in that gym, too. So I assume we can say it is most likely 350 kg squat.
I know I wouldn’t feel the need to add anything to a 320 kg squat if I posted a video of it 
He ate some proper food at the begining of the clip
stallion can outsquat all of you pussies
