I don't recall seeing those before. Regaurdless, thanks for the post. It's always great to see those guys lift.

I was away from the forum for a few months, except for checking on things a couple of times, so I missed a lot of what's been posted.

Wild stuff. His form looks really bad to pull that kind of massive weight. Head down, back rounded. Can't argue the number though. Seems like with the 940-970's popping up that 1K is only a matter of time to fall. I'd pull the 1,000 but it's been such a busy week :twisted:

Doc, I saved the Bolton vs. Magnusson video to a .flv file then converted it to a .avi. I used an eval version of Total Video Converter to convert it, so they put their info in the top left-hand corner of the video.

The files are available from this link:

If someone wants to reconvert the FLV file, then download the one with the .txt extension, rename it to .flv, and then convert it. I guess for security reasons the web server generates an error if you click on the .flv file because it doesn't recognize the file type, and I dont have time right now to modify the server's config.

Mods - I don't intend to be a permanent host for the video, I'm just trying to give you an easy way to save it somewhere, but I can keep it for a while. Is this forum able to host video files?

Love that vid of Doc squatting. I still think it's funny (and amazing) that he did the squat without cinching his belt.

it should be noted that Magnusson did token squat and b.pr. attempts at below 50 % of his max (!!!!!) while Bolton maxed on the squats and b.pr.s with monster weights before attacking the deadlift.... A universe of difference. Bolton freshly apparoaching the bar like Magnusson would yield an extra 50-100 lbs at that monster level. Bolton is 1 class stronger in the deadlift imho.
