Hope you guys understand that wasn't my intention. I don't have time during my day to stay up with the comings and goings of the top lifters so when I stumble on things like this I post it.

I know a lot of guys here don't follow powerlifting either.

I dont think people on this site would take it this way, but I promise there will be 10 different threads on other sites ripping him. It doesnt help that he isnt real liked by most. Never personally met him though, but you hear all kinds of bad stories about him.

Missed lift or not, his strength is impressive and I believe a lot of you guys are missing the point. The man is damn close to locking out the lift.

Everyone will hate on those they cannot compete with. If you can't lift as much as him, your negative opinion doesn't matter and that's all there is to it.

After a while you just get tired of clicking on youtube videos to watch him bomb out of meets, or nearly kill himself dumping a weight. I'd rather watch Dave Hoff nearly bench a grand in a full meet than a 1,050 lb belly dump any day of the week. Catch my drift...
