Finally, someone with some common sense. Ever notice when someone says how easy it is to do something, they never do it. Like I said, the world record for an hour was just over 200. Some absolute monster came along and did 500. No one else in the world has ever come close. So you think he could rest a bit, take a piss and crack out another 2800 of them? You're beyond deluded if you think so.
You've just proven a point as to why most haven't done it and to why many Americans don't have the physique that they want. Because people don't think that they can achieve it. People are beaten in the mind first. Period. It is excellent that dude did this, but he made up his mind to do it, seems to me that you are saying a person is beyond deluded for thinking he could match him, but what do you think of the people who said he couldn't have done it. They said the same thing. Same type of logic you are using. Do you get it now.
Take a look at CalisthesticKingz vids on YouTube, could you do that stuff right off the box? No you couldn't, but that's not to say you wouldn't be able to.
I swear the lack of faith, here is depressing, many of you got stuck in your heads a sense of mediocrity and status quo, hoisting up others as "special" and "I can't touch that" instead of using that as motivation to do better and if not to surpass that.
Aerian, I have not done it, because I have never had the yearning to do it. I don't see the reason nor want to do it because I could be doing something else with my time. But I think that you and others if you put your mind to it, could do it.
When I saw the guy in colllege doing 250 diamond push ups, it inspired me to do it, so I worked up to doing it, I eventually met my goal and then I started doing 100 with 50 pounds of weights in backpack. I set a goal and I met it. If I chose to set a record, I no doubt think I could, but my reasoning wasn't to do that.
SgtSpr, the game, the fight, the quest, is won and lost in the mind. If one's head is not into the fight, chances are great you are gonna lose. The man who did 3300+ pullups should be applauded, not because of his physical achievement, but because of having the mental fortitude to continue on with task at hand and stick thru it, which is possibly something you may lack, which is why one may hold this man up as "untouchable"...
