Check out what Major Shawn Baker, or orthopedic surgeon assigned to Kirtland Air Force Base, can do:

We’re watching as 6-foot-5-inch, 260-pound Maj. (Dr.) Shawn Baker lifts and does “shrugs” with free weights totaling 765 pounds. He could have lifted more, and has, but, “I don’t think the bar would take any more weight, and I’d need 100-pound plates, because I would run out of room on the bar using these (45-pound) plates,” he said….At the last competition in November, he beat the 1996 deadlift record of 705 pounds by lifting 711 pounds.

This is a guy who can break your bones and then fix them! Read the rest of the story here!
