What’s the heaviest weight a person can lift?

The world was in awe when British strongman Eddie Hall deadlifted 1,102 pounds (500 kilograms) at the World Deadlift Championships in 2016. Hall was the first person to break the half-ton barrier — and then, in 2020, Icelandic strongman Hafþór Júlíus Björnsson took it up a notch by deadlifting 1,104.5 pounds (501 kg).

Meanwhile, the record for heaviest weight ever lifted by a human belongs to Canadian strongman Gregg Ernst, who in 1993 backlifted two cars with drivers that together totalled 5,340 pounds (2,422 kg).
