Most I ever tried was 4 plates plus a 25 a side.  Thought I was going to die.  I believe if my math is correct that it's 455.  I know some jackasses that put 5 plates a side on a hammer strength and claim a 500 bench not realizing you don't add 45 for a bar that's not there and it's not the same.  I could do 6 plates a side on a hammer but no fucking way could I lift the same weight on a barbell flat bench.

BigBadWolfe (Mike Wolfe) and liquid_c (Ryan Dewitt) are probably the two strongest benchers here. A few others have benched in around 500lbs like OTH and Adrain.

SMM claimed a +600lb bench press. :D
