Yep, mainland Australia got TV in 1995 just in time for the trial. Before that we had to ride our kangaroos down to the local post office to get the news headlines via telegraph.
hahahahahaha, fair enough. i just didn't think anyone outside the states cared about OJ simpson. shows my provincialism, i suppose.
i watched the white ford bronco chase live. came on during a basketball game. i was at my grandparents' house and remember being kind of pissed that the game was being interrupted but also being glued to the tv and vaguely understanding that something very important and strange was happening. that whole episode was bananas. espn did a good documentary about it a couple years ago: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8l3qXxBaB_o.

i wasn't talking about your form, i was talking about how it's unsafe to do jump squats with that much weight on your back. doing them with lighter weight can have a strong potentiation effect, in addition to helping build power, but doing them with that much weight is a terrible idea.

too much weight. dangerous for back, low benefit. less weight, more jump.

what acole said. one thing: if there's no jump pit, or it's covered over (the one at the track where i go is always covered) then just do the jumps anyway. you won't go quite as far at the end but that's okay.
