I wish they would give some information such as how much weight he was pushing. I suppose it's sort of irrelevant since it could have just been added to after the fact, however.

Not to imply it never happens, but I don't think I've ever met a 61 year old that bench presses while home alone.

That's exactly what I was thinking.

How does anyone that age lift weights without a spotter?

I've met some pretty badass people in their sixties. Generally you don't live that many years being a pile of shit.

True, but it's not smart to bench press without a spotter no matter how old you are. I mean to say youd think someone that age would know better.

This is why I was hoping for more information on how much weight was there. It seems like an older guy that has been lifting weights for a long time probably wouldn't be doing anything crazy. 61 isn't really all that old if you take good care of yourself. The age thing almost makes it more suspicious. You get more cautious as you get older and tend to understand your limits better.
