Incredible amount of weight. I've always been curious, why such a wide grip on the bar?

I have to take a wide grip because of bulk. I can't get my hands back on a narrow grip. I would imagine Dave has the same issue.

Makes sense. Mine has to be wider than a lot of the instructional videos because of the same issue, but not to that extent yet.

I developed issues with this about 2009. I had a perpetual strain from trying to grip normally. One of the reasons I squat exclusively with a buffalo bar now. For some it's a flexibility issue, but for bigger guys it can just be that they become so bulky that it's physically impossible to use a narrow grip.

I actually use a wide grip too, with my fingertips of the plates. I started using it when a powerlifter taught me the low-bar hold, and I still feel like it lets me put the bar in a much more comfortable place. I would prefer to have them a few more inches inward so that I could squeeze the bar, but the power rack I have access to has the J-hooks in that location.
Anyways, I can easily get my hands in much closer, but it's not as easy to get the hold I want, and for some reason I also have trouble hitting depth.

Awesome strength and to answer the question about wide hand position my guess would be lack of shoulder flexibility combined with a low bar position. If he stays healthy Hoff will beat Donnie's WR total soon but then so could Henry Thomason...

Hoff broke the record with this squat didn't he? A 2960 total at 308. According to the westside official facebook at least and he posted on powerlifting watch too.
Some insane weight moved! *EDIT - Just seen Donnie Thompsons 3000lbs total
