I find some of those numbers VERY hard to believe.
Shaq - haha no way with those long arms does he bench even near that much
Will Smith - 385lbs eh i doubt that also, he was big in I robot but not 385lb BP big lol
Jack Lemmon - 300lbs/ Nah i don't believe that either.
Those are just the ones that poped out at me."Everyday your not training, someone else is training to be better then YOU" Only the strong survive!

I don't find it very hard to beleive, because he's an actor. He was probably on some hardcore steroids for a movie role, they don't test for movies, lol. Imagine if you had millions of dollars to buy any supplements you wanted all the food(nutritious) you could eat, and you had one of the best personal trainers and nutrition specialists working with you.

I certainly don't know if he actually benches that much or not, but long arms aren't necessarily an immediate hindrance to a big bench. It's a hindrance IF you have very narrow shoulders, but if you have very broad shoulders(and any picture of Shaq I've ever seen makes him look like a giant of a man), then PROPORTIONALLY, you're like anyone else. So, in fact, your potential is probably MUCH higher.
How does one destroy darkness? The answer dawned upon my mind, blinding in it's brilliance. To destroy darkness, one must simply expose it to the light.

Nothing in the world can take the place of persistence.
Talent will not; nothing is more common than unsuccessful men with talent.
Genius will not; unrewarded genius is almost a proverb.
Education alone will not; the world is full of educated derelicts.
Persistence and determination alone are omnipotent.

Beyond novice, 5 3 1 or see above:)
Unless it is obvious to anyone who isn't blind that you lift weights, you might still benefit from a little more attention to big basic barbell exercises for enough reps:).
