it's actually 394lbs if he adds it up correctly. Yes, I'm that bored. Got to give him credit, he is thorough. |

398 is what I came up with. I'mma just do the right thing here and round it up the two pounds and call it what it is ... a 400 pound bench at (if you read the comments he just turned 16) 16 years of age. Infuckingsane ...
If this kid does MMA he'll get a shot from Dana White for the UFC tittle in a few weeks  |

I have a few problems with the video.
1. Why would he do a max lift and video tape it all by himself? 2. I've seen people that can bench 500lbs not able to move a bar with 350lbs. around as easily as he was able to slide 400 around when it was racked. 3. His form was poor. I noticed his elbows flaring pretty badly, not only that but he looked like he had a few reps left in him. 4. There appeared to be minimal tension on the bar when he racked it. Even 315lbs makes the bar flex a bit. This is bullshit. Sorry guys. |

I find it hilarious that he did it in jeans and canvas shoes. Regardless, ridiculous...

I don't know if it is fake or not. But I do know that if you look at his other posts, he had a video where he did 300 for 4 reps. That would put him around a 330-340lb bench press, and that was done 4 weeks prior to the 370. So he basically increased his bench by 30-40lbs in that time?

Not sure what to think.....I have no reason to think its fake. Seems kind of un-real to a degree, but that could be my jealousy that this kid doesn't have a drivers license and can bench more than me.

I also think I agree with #4, I would have expected to see some kind of flex in the bar, or plates bouncing around more. Who knows if it is real or not, it just *looked* suspicious, that's all. If it was real, then damn, he is super strong and we will hear the name Toby cook in powerlifting circles in the coming years, that will be the big point, cause, I don't know how many 15 year olds bench 370, shit it took me till 32 to hit 365, so we'll see if we hear from him in the future |

I know that plates aren't ever perfectly weighted, but how does it work that he has pairs of plates each at a different weight? 46 is only one pound more than 45, but 53 is way too big of a difference. Likewise, the 35lbers were identical.
I think that this was too much of a coincidence for the weight to be real. I don't doubt that the kid is strong, but I have my doubts as to how real it is. He spins the bar really easily too. |
