Nope the record is 49 reps and it was done this year a couple weeks ago. A defensive end 6'-1" 310 and he almost got 50 just couldn't lock it out. Just saying.. I'm 265 and can get it only 10-12x....
Combine started on the 24th of Feb and ends today (March 1). Kid broke the old record by one.

Wow 40+ times for your own body weight is amazing. Back in high school when I was at my strongest I was bench pressing twice my weight and I only did my own weight like 20 times. Someone doing their own weight 40 times must have some super strength!
The vid was cool. At about 20, someone can be heard saying "We've got a live one!" He pumped out maybe 40 without pause, then made it up to 49. Not a huge guy, NFL-wise, though. I would not have guessed him for 49 if I saw him in the gym.
Of course, I just tried it again this weekend. Let's just say I wasn't quite in his league and leave it at that.

Alright, this is getting fucking retarded...
NFL stars are strong as fuck, and benching 225 for anything over a few reps..hell even for one rep is better than the majority of people can do...anyone in this bracket pat yourself on the back.
If you can bench more than your bodyweight for one or more reps pat yourself on the back. It's an accomplishment.
Other than that, who gives a fuck. Lift for yourself. Make yourself proud.

160lb a lot!
Nobody will ever take you seriously on here until you post a vid. Just saying. You can still spew all you want. You'll probably say "I don't care". That's fine. Just remember. You are currently the biggest joke on this board. You are the next jungle juice.
i agree with this post 100% and i think the poster knows alot about anything bbing so my best now with 6 months off ,and bw of 245 is, and, 2nd cycle around lifting is 16. my pr in bench is at 305lb bweight is lower 500s with a shirt.
Found this:
The record for bench press at the NFL combine is 51 reps of 225lbs, set by Justin Ernest, (DT), of Eastern Kentucky in 1999.

so i had a test to study for last week which has delayed my post but dont worry about it, i was in the gym today and i loaded 180 on the bench and guess what, yeah i did it 25 times, so no worries im posting that shit tomorrow.
In theory, you are right on. But most of us are competitive in nature, and I think we well wonder how well we match up with others. I am vain enough to get a chuckle when I lift in Thailand, and 99% of the guys here lift far less than me. (I think I have only seen three guys lift more than me in the last three years.)
On the other hand, I get my hubris commeupance when I get back to the US and lift in a Marine Corps gym. Heck I even went to a gym in Spartanburg SC in November and watched a big guy bench 205 10 times with what looked to be effort, and I patted myself on the shoulder for "beating" him...until he loaded up 335 and did another 10.
SOmeone else is always going to be stronger, and while you should lift for yourself, it is always interesting to me to see what others can do and gauge myself. (Although I frankly don't believe some of the claims here.)
As far as vids, I haven't claimed nor can I lift any huge amount, so I never took a vid. I have a photo of my PR 300 pounds done in January, and I could take a vid of my bw of 185 X 23, but I don't think anyone is overly impressed with that.
I understand your sentiment (and agree with it), but as I am a so-so lifter amongst gym rats, nothing I have lifted is exemplary enough to need proof.
For some of the claims here, though, I would want a vid before I believed them.
I did 275 10 times tonight. Wasn't really planning on it, just burning some out at the end of my work. saw this thread and figured I'd throw it in there. I'm 258 right now and cutting. Coming off of a decently carbed weekend. The next two weeks will be weakening though.
im the same.I cant really bench anymore due to shoulder injuries. but i used to do 35 reps @225 15-18 reps @ 275lb 12-15reps @ 315lb 3-6 reps @ 365lb 1-2 reps @ 405lb when i weighed around 210lb a few years ago. that prob 1 of the reasons why i have shoulder problems.
