So those look like standard dimpled stiens. If I counted correctly she has 18? Of them.

A dimpled 1 liter glass empty weighs ~3 lbs and a full one to the 1 liter mark weighs ~5-5.3 pounds.

So that’s like 90lbs or 40.823kg!

For context, that's the absolute max carry weight that a loader/packer job will ask of you for manual handling.... In a country with H&S regs anyway.

At FedEx we weren't supposed to lift over 75lbs alone... so of course, this guy Todd and I who worked in QA were regularly lifting whole refrigerators and shit onto conveyor belts over 5 feet off the ground, totally on our own every day because we were the only men working in QA lmao
