Even with them facing towards you the majority of the work can be done by the lats.

Also the wider your hands are, the faster and wider your back will grow.

Err, no, I have to disagree. Get a comfortable width. But if you go unnaturally wide you'll damage your shoulders.

Short answer: yes. Many swear by them. Along with deadlifts and bent rows, include them and you'll have a thick, wide back.

I didn't mean go to the point of injury, but the wider your hands are spaced out the more stress is put on your lats, so they will grow quicker since they have to do more of the work, but I am in agreence that you don't want your hands so wide that you are causing more harm then good.

Weighted pull ups on a wide grip is a killer deal for back width.

weighted pull ups and dead lifts are the number one exercise for back mass
