It's Pat
Have you seen the story about Pat Robertson being able to leg press 2000 pounds? This guy doesn't buy it.
Believe it or not some other people are skeptical.
Me? Well, I think that if Jesus Christ is your lifting partner you're going to try a little harder. When the Son of God is leaning over you, holy sweat dripping from his temple, chalk running up his hands and arms, and screaming in your face, "give me one more ... you're so pathetic!" I'll bet you reach a little deeper and try a little harder.
Even as you feel that hernia getting ready to pop Alien-like, you're going to go for it. Even if it means you end up crapping your pants. Even if you've been taking Dual Action Cleanse for weeks and you know your BM is going to set some world records of its own.
How could we possibly doubt anything Pat Roberstson says?
And really, maybe I'm being hard on the man. I don't watch a lot of The 700 Club. Do you get a good look at his thighs during the show? Is he sitting behind a big desk so you can see him only from the waist up? Maybe he's sitting there in a really nice suit jacket, shirt and tie but he's got no pants on. Maybe he's wearing shorts ... something that lets his quads breathe and flex as needed.
Maybe.

Robertson thinks small (In more ways than one). If JC is helping you, why 2000? Why not lift the Empire State Building or the Golden Gate Bridge?

Based on some other reading I've done -- though I haven't seen the video mentioned -- Pat's range of motion may be pretty limited in the leg press. It wouldn't be only the Russian judge that gave Pat a 2 for his attempt.
And, it looks like this might be part of a marketing thing he's got going on to sell his Super Duper Shake -- I think you get nine servings for about $22.00 at GNC.

Ahhh, but will those GNC shakes guarantee passage to heaven?
