This... these dudes going crazy with the science talk, lol.. I'm sure if I follow the link I posted I'll get too the 100 max..

Exactly, these dudes probably do 20 push ups, wait 5 mins and do another 20.  I can do about 60 push up's IN ONE SET and about 20 pull up's IN ONE SET.  And i was at about 40 in one set then started putting a 25 pound plate in a back pack and started doing sets of 20-25, now I can do about 60 in a row.

I can do around 50ish if you put me on the spot and I do them slowly, but I normally stick to sets of 40.

Pull ups (as a first set doing max) I can do about 20, but normally I'll do sets of 12.

100 push-ups is more realistic than 20 pull-ups. All the way down and chin over bar.

Yea right!!!! Tagged video or BS. BS - I guarantee it
  
Neither are that far-fetched. I only do calisthenics and body-weight exercises, and I can do 20-25 chin-ups or pull-ups rather easily. 100 push-ups (if you're actually controlling your weight) is definitely harder.

Dudes get too caught up in #'s. Focus on your breathing and actually controlling your weight. Let go of that ego.
Exactly, its all about form, proper breathing, and holding if possible.....numbers do not mean anything.

...and I will not record another video. I had to record a vid cause someone didn't believe I could bench 135lbs 40 times and I posted it the next day.

I haven't done pull ups in 2 months and I am sure I could do 20 (if it is the first thing I do to start my workout). Normally I'll do sets of 12-15 depending on how I feel. I've been messing with sets of 6-8 corn cob pull ups recently.

Real talk, I got timed for 52 pushups in one minute, which is really not impressive, I can do between 12 and 15 palms facing away pullups, that sucks as well. I can do between 18-20 canted dips.
