The Correct answer to the best of my knowledge is PAUL EDWARD ANDERSON, who lifted more than 6,270 in the year 1957 according to Guinness World Records. You can hear his story as a radio dramatization by "Unshackled!" Radio Ministries. Program Number 2521. They also have a comic booklet about him for like fifty cents or something. -T.G.

Yeah, Louis Cyr sounds right (one of those old time strongmen). But that poundage... I donno....
