Phuck me if that’s legit.
Theres an old out of print book called ‘The Superathletes’. It is research of strongman and stories of strong men during the beginning of existence. He has a chapter where he relates accounts he’s found in literature from ancient people like Milo, to old time european warlords and kinds nobody has heard of, into old time strongmen and other guys up to the 1970s.
Its a very interesting book and hard to find in conventional retailers because it has been out of print since the 70s or so. You can find copies here if anybody is interested:

It’s legit. That’s Hermann Goerner.
One of the greatest strongmen in history - and likely the best deadlifter.
No drugs, no suits, no straps, not even a belt.
not to mention he lost an eye in WWI.
I verified the sources from wikipedia, that’s absolutely fucking nuts.
Who cares
Are all these amazing feats verified the same way Bruce Lee’s were???
I’m more impressed with that moustache at 17 than his physique at that age…but 700+ 1 handed deadlift…some people are really strong
