Gant's 5.17% over body weight should tell you the answer to this. All the lifts here were World lifts and surely recognized as some of the best lifts in history. Congrates to all that performed them.

The answer is subjective. "Impressive" to one may not be as impressive to another. For instance, I voted for Kutcher's 793 because he truly put his all into it - a real grinder. His determination impressed me.

I voted for Gant's pull for two reasons. 1: He was a lifetime drug-free lifter. 2: His pull wasn't done with a deadlift bar.

I voted for Coan with out checking any stats or formulas because so few people have done 900 and at his weight is just awesome. Plus it was just 3 Lbs under the world record of 904 Lbs by Dan Woleber at the time and attempted I think a 920 DL that he couldn't quite lockout. That would be like 1012 & 1031 today. Jeff Hackett.
