Ray Williams squats 1005lbs

At 2016 USAPL Raw Nationals on Oct 16, 2016,  Ray Williams set the all time raw squat record and BURIED 1005 lbs!

Ray Williams pulled off the first-ever 1,000-plus-pound raw squat lift in history, putting up 456 kilograms (exactly 1,005.3 pounds) at the USA Powerlifting Raw Nationals in Atlanta, Georgia.

Williams performed the lift under the "raw" standards of the International Powerlifting Federation, meaning no "squat suit" and no knee wraps—just a standard weightlifting belt and knee sleeves. It's the first time an athlete has squatted more than 1,000 pounds raw in a drug-tested competition.

He also had a 240kg (529 lb) bench and an 383kg (844 lb) deadlift, which means he set the world record for heaviest drug-tested raw super heavyweight powerlifting total - 1079kg, or 2,378.7 lbs.
