Yeah... I've definitely been surprised by people picking shit up. But this kid... He's 32... 5'11 180 and tubby. Man boobs... And avoids physical labor at every cost. I could tell he lying by the way he said 350... Or 375.
Because he was like
"Yeah I can squat... 3 (seconds of silence) hundred (More silence) and (more silence) 70... 5 pounds. I could literally watch the pain come across his face as he pulled that number from his ass


.
And I'm the bull at work. Any time something needs to be lifted or moved, I'm the guy who is called.
3 weeks ago we were cleaning up a area to make it more appealing. Right in the middle there's a 200-250 boulder. My boss has been talking about moving it for weeks. Now that we're working on the area... It's time. So I tell him let's just move the damn thing onto the Workman and finish making it look pretty.
He huffs and puffs saying it's too heavy and we'll have to get the tractor and find chains... Ect. I said it's only 250lbs we can just pick it up and move it. He misunderstood what I said, and thought I said "I can just pick it up and move it" he said there's no way in hell I can pick it up and move it. I said "tell you what, if I can pick it up by myself and put it on the back of the Workman... We all get to leave 2hrs early.
He took a second and then agreed with a big smile, then said if I can't... He gets to call me a pussy for the rest of the week.
I'll let the pictures speak for themselves.
And while I don't know the actual weight... I'm willing to bet anything my guess of between 200-250 is pretty good.
But 250 on a barbell and 250 on a rock... 2 totally different things.
But as far as your log lift... That's fucking nuts bro!
I've tried the cable toss a few times in my younger days... That's a stupid amount of weight brother. I think you got lucky with that one
