Yeah, someone who knows him mentions him doing it, and you can see him doing it in other videos during his psyche up. Here's the guy's video channel, not every lift is perfect, but he's still strong as an ox -

At first I thought he was smoking a cig before the lift but realized it was smelling salts. Would've been hilarious.

very impressive benching for a buck 65 bodyweight, even if he was in his 30's not 60's

2 good and long clean pauses right there

Strong guy but he looks 20 years older.

I hope he starts cleaning out his house before he gets even older. It won't get any easier.

Very polite of Mr Burch to say thank you in the end of his videos.

Doesn't look very healthy. Apparently he wants to show off himself to the world, but why?

His post workout meal consists of a pack of Marlboro Blacks and a fifth of Wild Turkey.

Those loaded bars don't move right, especially the "330" on the curl bar. Not feeling it.

Also, I imagine Funk51 looking and talking like this guy.

no spot, 320 bench, 65 years old.   God damn that could have ended badly, and kinda hard to believe.  That's insane

Here's why I am not buying it: Cyplenkov doing less weight with less form.



That old dude would have to be from Krypton for that to be a legit 330. NFW.

I thought Fred Sanford's living room.  Nonetheless pretty cool looking.

The lifting is indeed odd, especially the curls. That being said, some of the others seem somewhat plausible, for instance, all of the deadlifts are off boxes, which brings them 2/3 up the shin or so, so they are really partial lifts, and his best recorded squat was a high #500 in jeans and wraps -

.

So, there is a weird sort of WTF factor to that channel.

Zero bounce on that bar as he walks out, and finishes the rep. Looks very light.

Some of the plates have the "rubber coated bumper" look to them.
Possibly 10's...
