See you try to make it like I bullshit yet NO WHERE on here did I ever say "EVERYONE" benches 500. But since you obviously live where SquadFatter lives and don't train in a REAL gym, before you look as stupid as SquadFatter, try visiting a real gym. Honestly you guys who post shit like no one benches 315 or you have never seen someone bench 500 you either are full of shit pretending to even workout or you live in a fucking hole.
Come on now, obviously I was exaggerating about everyone being that strong in your gym. We are talking about most gym around the world and how these poundages are not common in most gyms. I have trained in gyms where there are a lot of bb competitors, even some pros, competitive powerlifters, etc. And seeing 500lb+ raw benches is still a pretty rare sight. Look in this thread, guys naming gyms with lots of big dudes and good powerlifters and saying how rare these lifts still are.
I remember reading in Flex mag how the Wheeler/Cormier crew was the strongest in Gold's Venice and Wheeler was putting up like 420 on incline and Cormier doing 495 for a single. These feats were worthy of writing articles about. Cormier was said to be the strongest incliner there. Look at what Coleman was doing in his video on the bench. Johnnie Jackson does a few sloppy reps with 4 plates and he is also thought of as one of the strongest pros. Yet your gym has tons of skinny guys with no muscle doing the same or better.
