That's not me in that picture but rather a guy on that forum showing what he used to do he is doing a lockout deadlift (lifting the bar a few inches off elevated support bars) with what he is suggesting is 1008lbs or 458kg which IS impressive.

As part of my maximal hip strength and grip training I used to do similar movements as part of my strongman training but with significantly more weight...but we wont tell him that
