Quick hit: The heaviest verifiably-documented rack-pull anyone’s put on camera is Eric Kim’s mind-bending 552 kilograms / 1 217 pounds at knee height (10 July 2025)—a lift that leap-frogged every strongman partial pull on record by a cool 41 kg and instantly became the new benchmark for “gym-only” feats of pulling power.  Everything heavier that circulates online either happens from much higher pin settings, on car-tire rigs, or with sketchy plate counts. Below you’ll find the full leaderboard, how it compares to other partial deadlifts, and why Kim’s pull is such a seismic moment for strength culture.

What Counts as a “Rack Pull”? Rack pulls start with the bar resting on safety pins or blocks inside a power rack, typically at knee height or slightly below. Because you skip …
