Eric Kim — new rack pull PR/claim

• 926 kg (2,041 lb) high‑pin rack pull — posted Jan 13, 2026
  Context: self-organized / non‑competition (“no judges”), described as a high‑pin rack pull / extreme overload and a +44 lb jump over the prior milestone.  

His recent progression (for the timeline)

• 905.8 kg (~1,997 lb) high rack pull — Jan 1, 2026, self‑organized, non‑sanctioned (and explicitly noted as not an official federation record).  
• 723.5 kg (~1,595 lb) mid‑thigh rack pull — Oct 2025, described as an independent “world‑record attempt (verification pending).”  
• 602 kg (~1,327 lb) rack pull — July 2025.  

Quick reality check on “all‑time” wording

Rack pulls aren’t standardized (pin height, ROM, bars, straps, judging, weigh‑ins), so there’s no single universally recognized official “world record” the way there is for sanctioned events. Even the 905.8 kg writeup explicitly notes it has no official standing with strength sport orgs. 

If you mean the heaviest 

standardized competition

 partial deadlift

That crown is still the 18” Silver Dollar Deadlift world record:

• Rauno Heinla — 580 kg (1,278.7 lb) (Silver Dollar Deadlift, June 2022).  

If you want, I can rewrite the full “heaviest rack pulls / partials” leaderboard with two columns (open‑class gym rack pulls vs. sanctioned 18” event records) so it’s crystal clear what’s being compared.
