What would yall say Batmans benchpress was in Batman Begins? He was able to pull up a 170-190 lb man with one arm hanging off a cliff, which would say its probably alot. Not to mention, he ripped a sword to pieces with his arm blades. I'd say its def over 300 lbs. then. But in this Bat-novel I read, Dead White it said his max benchpress was around 300 which didnt seem like alot or is that about right..? Surely the movie version of Batman couldnt be stronger than the novel version.
i think that batman's strength is equivalent to olympic athletes sylvester stallone coudl bench 400lbs summin , batman is 6ft2 and he's decently ripped in comics so i woudl say about 500lbs max
^Yeah, for the comics I know its like alot more though, I think I read 725 lbs on one website, but for the movie version, yeah, 400 sounds about right. It just disappointed me seeing he could only do 300 on his last sets in the novel (although he did have 8 sets, so he wouldve of course gotten tired- Id say when hes rested and not worn out, he could do about 350 max- so thats almost even).
Batman supposedly weighs about 220 pounds. As a top-notch athlete, he should be able to benchpress about double his bodyweight. So I'm gonna say he's good for about 450.
I would guess he should be able to military-press about 300.

In Batman Begins, if it were in real life, I'd say that Mindship has a good estimate of him being able to lift about 450 lbs (in weights). In the comics, it should be even more than that.

Yeah, I've heard about that plenty of times. He may be EVEN STRONGER than that. You never know.

I can press 325. Obviously not for several reps, nor for several sets, but I can push it up. I certainly feel that batman should be (quite) a bit stronger than I am.
Not in the movie though, probably about 600 lbs if that.

Meh, a kid at my old high school could clear five hundred.
A friend I had at my old Uni could clear the same. And I'm CERTAIN someone at my current school could do it, just because where I am is so friggin huge, even though I don't actually KNOW anyone here that can.
Just saying - it's not THAT rare.
Anyways; back on topic, twice your body weight is a damned good ratio, and it's one that's VERY hard to surpass. And I thought I recalled Bale weighing 220 for Begins, hence, no more than 450, in my opinion.
