The Eric Kim 723.4 kg (1,595 lb) rack-pull at ~71 kg bodyweight is extraordinary because it shatters every known ratio boundary of human pulling strength. A rack pull is a partial-range deadlift from elevated pins—usually at or above the knee—that removes the hardest mechanical segment of the lift and lets an athlete handle far greater loads. Still, Kim’s self-reported 10.19× body-weight figure dwarfs anything in sanctioned history. For context: Hafþór Björnsson’s verified 510 kg full deadlift equals 2.5× BW; Rauno Heinla’s 580 kg 18-inch pull equals 3.6× BW. Kim’s number is roughly four times that relative intensity.
Here are some comparables in terms of raw mechanical force (Newtons) and equivalent outputs to illustrate just how colossal a 723.4 kg rack pull really is:
