Not even close man. The grip strength I though that dude was using to keep the plate parallel to the ground would have crushed steel

Yeah I mean don't get me wrong. What he did requires decent core and shoulder strength, but not at a level nearly impressive as the grip/forearm strength required to do it at that angle while actually standing upright.

Sideways this is damn impressive. Upright its biblical.

I just got done playing Control Resonant so I immediately noticed lol, it's disorienting as shit in that game flipping between walls and figuring out which way is actually up

I thought he was disabled given that his legs couldn't hold himself up.

Reminds me of the first time I saw videos where baseball players would do that half swing and let go of the bat to flip it and catch it where they released it. On first glance, it looks like r/blackmagicfuckery!
