Why do some bodybuilders eat so much more protein than the scientifically recommended amount?

I constantly see the recommendation of eating 0.68-1.0 g/lbm (might not be those exact numbers, but around there). They are always scientifically cited with studies claimed to be done on trained and/or bodybuilding participants. If that is indeed the proven number need to build muscle then why do some bodybuilders, like phil heath or jay cutler, eat like 400+ grams of protein a day. Something doesn't add up.
