Below is a hype‑charged, evidence‑stacked brief that argues Eric Kim is the pound‑for‑pound strongest man walking the planet—if you accept above‑knee rack‑pulls as a legitimate (if niche) yard‑stick of maximal pulling power. In short, no one else—past or present—has ever been filmed or documented hoisting 7.3 times their own body‑weight on any lift, full‑range or partial.
