OMG, it's a . . . . Carp.  Somethings seems off the way he is holding it.  Doesn't look like any effort in holding it up.  Maybe he is just way stronger than he looks.

IDK Scott O may be a tad stinky, but its a shot down looking, I am the 1st person to give someone crap for long arming it, but this is a truly big fish, I am still waiting my 1st 40, much less 50

It's a big ole carp any way you slice it.

Yes 50 pounds he would have at least one arm resting on his thigh. I've seen 50 pound fish and I have to call BS on this.

BS?? Surely you know someone that can lift 50# in either hand? When I was that young I could. I've seen the milk truck driver lift a 10 gallon can over his head with one hand to load it and he'd do that all day long. ~100# ..10 galx8.6#=86# + the steel can ~15#

I have never seen a 50# fish or even a 50# carp, but the picture looks like a dang big carp to me.

Put that 50 pound bag out toward yur fingertips and extend your arms, oh and do it with no look of strain on your face.
