Nice!!

That was a F*****n lift. Nice to see weight moved like that...

 

[Shelby]

That guy is unbelievably strong. He just did a BBing show a couple months ago too!

[leegee38]

Five freakin' times his bodyweight?!?!?! And made it look easy!

I am definitely not worthy ...

That right there is a world record that i do not think will be touched for a VEERRYYY long time. That is 5x+ his bodyweight!

 

[Chrysler]

Only one word can be used to describe that: Weaksauce!


Seriously, I wonder if I could even stand there with that kind of weight on my back, or would my body just crumple.

he'll beat it again...he's only 24 now i think.

That is just soooo far out there, I don't even really know what to say. Huge congratulations! I don't think the weight moved... I think he pushed the Earth away.

Awesome...

That is INSANE!! Over half a ton at a BW under 200lbs.......that is just crazy assed strong. Great job BB. Awesome job!!

 

[bigtwig]

That's incredible!

Just curious though, is it hard to stay balanced with your feet that far apart? You look very solid doing it, but I couldn't imagine squatting with that wide of a stance (I'm somewhat clumsy).

I apologize for my honesty

I have the utmost respect and admiration for Big Byrd and it was an extremely impressive display of squating power to say the least. I must have watched that video 30 times and if I am allowed to offer constructive feedback I think it was just at parallel and not below. It is possible if you had 2 of the 3 judges that were sticklers for depth it may not have passed. I have no doubt at all he could have made that lift just as easily if he had taken it down another inch. Sorry for my honest observation.
