Very very poor call. That had more depth to it than the lift that currently holds the world record. This is bullshit...
-
@asborisov1 - Did you notice the part that this was red lighted for depth?
-
WHAT A FUCKING J0KE. N0 LIFT IN THE IPF.

can someone ask donnie where he got his custom foam cube that he sits on?

@pisswizzard exactly! I'm no hero in the sport but i will do more than my best to improve under my circumstances.

@pisswizzard haha well it sums up most peoples jealous attitude I think. I am an olympic lifter, but I completely respect all forms of strength, like this, very impressive however you look at it, and overall it is fair when you consider everyone is doing the same thing, So respect from me. haha yea, I must admit I thought it was low enough, if anything the problem with powerlifting is inconsistant judging. But as a sport it is just as worthy as any other

@mikeyburger1 Thank you for a considered and well put reply! It beats the usual 'suits suck l33t' or 'high skwat' etc nonsense that usually gets posted on these things.
PS - the lady filming it put it best....are you fuckin kidding me? That looked as parallel as any attempt he's done.....DT is gonna get it soon.

In his other video he does 1300
Well I'm an olympic lifter, so I am harsh on depth - perhaps, But I think anybody who does that with 1260 lbs deserves the UPMOST respect, raw or Not raw! And I agree, this is FAR deeper than Mike millers squat and is probably the deepest squat I have seen with anything over 1220 odd lbs, and tbh its very difficult to judge depth unless the camera angle is absolutely spot on, and in any case, what a tremendous feat of human strength!!!!!!

@mikeyburger1 Couldn't agree more man. I cannot conceive holding 300+lb over my head and holding it there! We are all training for strength and getting our dynamic / maximal / repetitive effort workout on will eventually make us what we want..............better than average.
And lets be honest, thats our cause. We'd rather be the best than average and give whatever it takes than be the norm......... Mike, appreciate your honesty and your sport. Lets give it to the norm, eh?!
