Scaring Public Gym With 905LB Bench Press as Michael Myers!

Video summary

Press to jump

0:42The trio enters the crowded Chicago gym in matching Michael Myers masks and jumpsuits.
2:40Ridenour and Dishman increase the bench weight as spectators begin gathering.
6:23Dishman presses 500 pounds raw, with Ridenour comparing it to his own deadlift.
14:54Dishman prepares for heavier assisted lifting while the group discusses recruiting more spotters.
17:40Preparations for a nine-plate attempt include fetching resistance bands to secure the plates.

How much is the masked lifter planning to bench? Logan Dishman's answer is a casual "Uh, 900."

That exchange captures the joke in Tyson Ridenour's gym visit: the costumes are conspicuous, but the weights are what really stop people. Ridenour, Dishman and Blake Went enter a VASA Fitness in Chicago wearing matching jumpsuits and Michael Myers masks, then begin loading the bar.

The video reached about 33,000 views in eight hours, already well beyond Ridenour's usual full first day. Public-gym surprises are familiar territory for his channel: his most-watched regular upload also features Dishman arriving for an enormous bench session. Here, the matching horror costumes add another layer to the spectacle.

As the warm-up progresses, spectators gather around the bench and phones come out. Ridenour supplies the running commentary: "Bro is benching my deadlift right now, and we are still warming up."

The equipment matters, too. Later heavy sets use a bench-press slingshot, an elastic assistance device worn around the upper arms. The trio discusses bringing in extra spotters, and resistance bands are fetched to secure the loaded plates.

Viewers are picking out the mismatch between Dishman's matter-of-fact answer and the gymgoer's uncertainty about whether he is serious. Ridenour eventually offers his own way of handling all those eyes: "Imagine no one's here. What would you do?"

Thats insane, when people ask him how much do you bench and he says about 10 plates, no one would think he's serious.
