Looked a lot better than his original 500, but the lockout is so hard to judge with this level of bench press

I was at the meet and I’m not sure he locked his left elbow (right on the video). It seemed close, but this video angle doesn’t show it conclusively. It was an incredible lift to see in person, though.
He’s also a very nice person.

The stupid gold plates lol. Reminds me of NASA meets. Such incredible strength though, seriously unreal.

They use the Golds at this meet because it’s at the York Barbell hall of fame. Those weights are historic

Those plates have to be at least 30 years old.

He also took a shot at 1200. Human body limits are clearly a joke to this man.
The longevity alone is fucking bonkers.
His first world record was eight years ago, and he already qualified as a masters lifter at that point after like 17 years of competing.
The 1200 was much, much closer than I thought it would be. He just couldn’t lock it out.
Unreal.
