Just cuz of this movie. I want dat superhuman strength.
I know he does 500 lbs in a deleted scene but 350 lbs seems like a goal I could actually reach.
"The plastic tips at the end of shoelaces are called aglets. Their true purpose is sinister."
Get a trainer and be careful
My friend did it the wrong way and ended up having back surgery
Dunn approved.
I can sorta relate. The scene is rather inspiring. Powers, baby!
Nothing superhuman about 350. That's what's so nice about the scene - it keeps the question open. It's a lot of weight but nothing extraordinary.
shareBenching 350 is extraordinary. In all my years at the gym I would rarely see people benching 315.
shareYeah. To someone like myself, who maxes out at 170, Dunn being able to bench that much is for sure eye-catching.
And let's not forget that David Dunn is a middle-aged everyman, just working his job and raising his kid and getting some reps in down in the basement, and not a dedicated powerlifter in the prime of his life. While it's certainly not humanly impossible for someone in that position to bench 350, it's also certainly very uncommon. The fact that he can do it does signify something rather remarkable.
