Durianders is terrible. He's lean as hell. Scaringly so.

Scrawny guys who dont lift normally, trying to lift?
I'm not vegan, but I don't get why the video points out these guys are vegan. I can go to the local gym and find guys who eat proper macros, but can't life their body weight?
e: I'm a firm believer that even if you are just at the gym, you don't deserve to be made fun of. You're not sitting on your ass doing nothing.

I eat meat and those vegans were lifting way more than I can. Good for them.

How much fructose would you get from an only fruit diet? I'll imagine that in things like Bananas, there must be a lot. Holy cow!
Except for those guys that go to the gym, plug those earphones in and commence to do nothing. Even worse, they do nothing in the squat rack.

I don't care how impressive the second dude is in regards to weight benched, when your ass leaves the bench surface you've gone off the rails.
This is amazing. I don't lift for a few reasons, and this is the sum total of those reasons. 'Cause I'm too thin, and I lack protein, and I don't have a colossal ego. Maybe.
... Even so, I do have more definition than that guy. Dude isn't even ripped.
What does ego size have to go with lifting weights?

What does this have to do with veganism? (honest question from a meat-eater)

Well, those Vegans clearly bit off more than they could chew, which was down to ego, one way or another. They seriously thought that they were doing things properly. That's kinda why I have no plans to lift weights any time soon. Another billion uninteresting push-ups for me.
No, we are picking on people who say they are "repping out" a weight that they aren't even lifting. That first guy doesn't even get a single rep, every single one is assisted. Second guy might have got that first rep himself, even if it was ugly, but the rest didn't belong to him.
Rest
All these years later I still chuckle at what a fucking moron that guy is.
Fruitarianism.
And with that said, this reminds me of some show I was watching that followed som "Freegan Fruitarians" around for a couple days. The introduced them, and the showed a headshot of the man. He was a crossdresser with long hair, and I though to myself "is that the man, or is that the woman?" Then they showed the woman, they had her framed the same way, she was wearing the same outfit, she had the same hair cut and she had a
mustache,
I'm a vegetarian and I never mock or condemn people's dietary choices, but eating nothing but fruit is insanity. Enjoy that diabetes, I guess.

How do expect to lift half a car from eating pears? FUCK THAT
Yep. That should have been the end right there; any further is risking injury.
Second dude was no doubt pretty strong, all things considered. First guy had no business trying to lift that amount, especially for reps. When I was just starting lifting, I didn't go near my bodyweight on the bench for some time.
Bananas are awesome though

I didn't know you could have a diet of ONLY fruit. seems very hard on the body. that's a lot of sugar.

People who only eat fruits aren't vegans, they're fruitarians. I mean there's some overlap sure, but vegan =/= fruitarian and vice versa.

This looks like worlds weakest prison yard. I prescribe protein shakes to all of them. Getting that two fiddy wasn't bad but you know that was that adrenaline courage one time lift. Eat a mixed diet people. We're omnivores.

I remember that, I think it was on some show called "Taboo" or something.

That second guy getting an almost 2x bodyweight bench is damn impressive, even if the form was awful. I've been lifting for a few months and still can't do 1x my bodyweight (220ish), and I barely go 12 hours without putting a dead animal inside me.
Anybody can do stupid lifts when they contort their body like that...it's impressive how stupid it is TBH.

Those are some small ass dudes, vegan or not theyre going to struggle. Second dude did push 250.

No. It's dangerous due to complete lack of macronutrients (protein and fat). Essentially, eating only Big Macs is infinitely healthier than eating only fruit.

Yes
Anyway: what is vid? Two people making a fool of themselves or making fun of lifting weights?

No it's not. That's just taking the piss of their lifestyle choice.
This thread is in pretty poor taste. IMHO.

Just what in the fuck is that second guy doing?

So these people don't take nutrients in forms of capsules and stuff to supplement their diet?
It's not healthy to just live off fruit, doing pretty bad harm to your body. The vegans I know IRL take some sort of supplement for balance of nutrients.

Hey now, "Mango" is the name of a character I created, not my name.
Seriously though, there is a difference, as fruitarianism is about only eating things produced from the plant and not the plant itself, likewise some actually eat some things like Honey which is not vegan.
so...
Vegetarianism: no meat (this includes fish) and nothing that involves harming the animal directly. Milk, honey, and eggs are ok, but if it's for an ethical reason then typical those eggs, the milk, and the honey are all free range, farm-raised, and fair traded. Likewise, some by-products are avoided as they're harvested from the animal, like rennet.
Veganism: nothing that comes from an animal, so no meat (this includes fish), milk, eggs, honey, or derivatives of those like by-products like shellac.
Fruitarianism: mostly a diet consisting of fruit, seeds, and nuts, basically whatever is harvested from a plant, while avoiding eating that actual plant.

Oh yeah? Awesome! brb, benching 500 pounds.
Lifting your butt a few inches doesn't magically double your bench press; when you're under a weight that's too heavy for you, wiggling around will only get you so far. Obviously he'd get three red lights in competition (and he should never have gone for a second or third), but he still got that motherfucker up there. Even if he could only get 230/240 with perfect form, that's a totally respectable lift for a sub-130lb guy.
