Not natural? Don't care. I'm sure Ronnie in his prime could've done it, too. Now he's a cripple.

I'll take a 350lb fat man with raw power over a 275lb juicer who's dead in 5 years.

I am sure he is very strong but gym lifts are meaningless. The powerlifting competition ones are the only ones I'd believe. I remember all the feats of strength written about the legendary Paul Anderson, out of competition. Most were shown later to be  wildly inflated or outright fabrications.

Larry wheels is just about the last person who would ever need to use fake weights, especially on any sort of pressing movement. The guys has benched 600+ in legit power lifting meets.

fake-ass weights as well

Agreed. They don't move and the bar doesn't respond like one would expect. I lost faith when Kaz told us he believes the plates Platz used in the high rep squat demo he is famous for were fake.            and Kaz was spotting him.

Strange Kaz would say this about that event
Wasn’t it a lift off between Tom & Fred Hatfield
Poundage for reps - Platz Won
Max poundage 1 rep - Fred Won

Were all the lifts that day fake weights then.

Yep. You got it correct. It was a promo bit for the new WBF. I know Tom. I think it’s 50/50 if it was real or not. Certainly in his prime (biggest/most gassed) I believe he was capable of such reps with such a poundage. But ... SO much smaller and less “fueled”? As said, he did have a squat suit on, but ... I don’t know.

But I gotta call bullshit on Kaz, too. In that seminar he claims he’d do three sets of 15 high-bar/ narrow stance squats with 300 kilograms before deadlifting to “flush” his quads. That’s 660 pounds.

No. Fucking. Way.

And keep in mind Kaz is my all-time favourite strength athlete and I’ve hung with him.

But 660x15x3? Olympic style?

Bullshit.

Bullshit.

I’m impressed that you can count both Tom & Kaz as friends /  acquaintances
Both are Greats & legends of the lifting world.

If Tom's squat reps were dubious then so must be Fred’s
Likewise the max poundages.

Neither Tom or Fred were at there best & most gassed at that event.

As for Kaz - I know & Run a business with Geof Capes and He would
Say Kaz was the All Time Strongest Man.
Though that was up to early 2000’s - I’ll have to ask him his opinion
Again with the likes of Zydrunas / Shaw / Thor / Eddie.

There's another look at it in real time, not slowed up, you can see bounce in the bar. There was definitely some weight on it. Kazmaier can be catty sometimes, I wonder if he just dropped that out there to be a dick.
