460kg - BigArnie's Attempt at the IPF SHW Squat Record

I attempted to break the IPF's long-standing 125kg+ division squat record of 457.5kg by taking 460kg at the 2008 South African Powerlifting Championships in Durban on 14 June 2008. The lift was failed but I did get one white light.

General concensus among people that saw the lift was that it was very close (less than half an inch) from being a pass lift. Some guys say that the lift was good. Personally I would prefer not to have any controversy surrounding a world record that I broke so I'd rather prepare for another attempt at the record and make sure that I go even deeper next time.

Thank you so much, Dresendezz. That's most kind. If all goes well I'll take another crack at that record later this year.

Thanks a lot for the kind comments, Gentlemen. Much appreciated.

im sorry but the fact you might have been half an inch too high is ridiculas when you compare your squat to some of the other "world records" here on youtube. your attitude and modesty earn you ten times the respect of other lifters! good luck breaking this record in the near future

My friend, you just walked back 1012Lbs and squatted it w/ a normal stance(maybe a tad wider) but none the less. That was how you squat. The squat looked good to me! Plus, as I said, you walked it back. NO monolift or OVER WIDE SUMO stance! Great job!

If everybody would squat ass to grass there would be no depth questions anymore. Just like olympic weightlifters. Those are the only ones who knows real meaning of word a squat.
