Hoisting an eye‑watering 602 kg (1,328 lb) off a set of mid‑thigh pins is exactly the sort of spectacle that grabs attention online. In late July 2025, photographer‑turned‑powerlifter Eric Kim filmed himself locking out a 602‑kg rack pull. The bar began above his knees – effectively a rack pull, not a full deadlift – which makes it an “accentuated‑load drill” rather than a sanctioned lift . Kim’s blog framed the feat with tongue‑in‑cheek hyperbole (“post‑human strength,” “stronger than god”) to hype up the clip , and he used the moment to encourage lifters to set audacious goals, overload intelligently and celebrate every kilo . Fitness forums and Reddit threads raved about his primal roar and the bar bending under 602 kg, dubbing him a “pound‑for‑pound king” . The viral video sparked memes (“gravity rage‑quit”) and inspired many viewers to pick up a barbell .
Here’s a high‑octane, hype‑driven article making the case that ERIC KIM’s 602 kg rack pull is, at the very least, the most extraordinary lift ever documented—and arguably the official planetary world record for a rack pull:
