I have no world records, but I have some GOLD MEDALS.

Nah. There should be a lot of 3D benching too.

I heard Kingpin was aiming for a 4way record or something.

@massman, I would say that according to the pic, Dino looks more like being ready to Fist ... but that's maybe another conversation

Looks to be a cool idea from G.Skill. Maybe some epic and legendary moment coming up there, looking forward for results.
May the best bins win
