Looks legit. Size isn't necessarily related to strength.  Look at those skinny chinese olympic weightlifters front squating like 4-500. 

Here's a 150lbs lifter front squatting 440lbs for 5 reps. All legs.

And onlyme in your world of magic and fantasy a 5 plate a side squat by a sub 200lb man may not be good but in the real world there arent many men sub 200 that can squat 5 a side raw, believe me

Yea well fantasy world and magic appears to be a lot more real than your world.  I never said there are lot of guys who can do it nor did I say it was easy to do.  I have seen MANY sub 200 guys squat 500 and over 700.  There are guys i the gym who can squat 500 under 200 who have never competed.  That video is not fake plain and simple.

I think you're an alright guy, onlyme, but the vid is fake, deal with it.

He re-racks it too easily, even a texas bar bends and flexes with 495lbs on it when you squat.

A good bar will have little to no bend at 500lbs.  EliteFTS sells an 8 foot squat bar that has very little flex when loaded to 1200lbs.

That bar doesn't bend at all, and when he re-racks it he almost misses on the right side....he just kind of shrugs the bar up with little effort.



Also watch at the 14 second mark, he slides the bar across the pins like it was nothing...

looks like a pretty shitty gym . . . why would they have pretty authentic-looking fake plates?

also, the dude has some crazy hops . . . so i wouldn't be surprised if he could do it.

Powerlifting isn't just about strength but its also about technique.  Most lifters could squat more weight if they used proper technique

Assuming you knew anything about lifting, technique or strength.....

Never said the plates were fake, I've said the 495lb squat was fake, I think those plates are only 10kilos or so.

as much as it burns my ass to say it, I think the weights are real.  I think theres a pretty good chance they are the bumpers SF was alluding to earlier, but its not a Weider 5lb special.  Still pretty pathetic for a dude that shoots more juice than a top tier IFBB pro though.

but bumpers don't clang . . . that shit sounded like church bells.  maybe in romania they have metal plates that are the size of 45s, but weigh less?

also, did you see his jumping video? dude's pretty damn explosive.

not "fake" plates but there are some 15 and 25 pound bumper plates that are the same size as typical 45 pound plates.


at my old school, the plates were all the same size - 25, 35, and 45's.

they all were the same size as standard 45's except that they had a different color stripe in the middle.

25's were yellow, 35's were blue, and 45's were red.

unless you were up close and knew to look for it, you'd think they were all 45's.

This guy is fake and he already admitted...
He said the gym was used fro photoshoots for Flex Magazine Romania.

http://www.getbig.com/boards/index.php?topic=177050.0

But either way you can easily see that the lifts is fake just look how it takes out the bar i mean its 500Pd's there seams like he was running backwords with 500Pd's on is shoulders.

Some examples:
