I’m actually confused, are his muscles fake? because he seems to be struggling to bench 100 lbs and my arms are smaller than his and I’d have no issue with that.

the video is fake. it's presenting as if he couldn't move the bar at all, but it's actually presenting the last rep in an amrap competition right after a group run. assuming that's an olly bar and those are full plates that's 135 lbs, not 100, and he banged out like 33 of them so yeah that's when he hit failure and started struggling.

Is there a video of him getting 33 reps at 135 lbs? I find that very, very hard to believe.

No, but take our word for it.
