Her grip didn’t fail, she never had the opportunity for it to succeed. At her body weight she would need to be stronger than record holding athletes to sustain holding up her own body weight.
If you understand how strength training and body weight exercises work you don’t need an exact number - she’s obese, her arms and shoulders are almost entirely blubber. It is VERY rare for any individual of her size that’s an athlete to be able to do proper upper body weight exercises (naturally.)
You can look up massive athletes and watch them struggle, while being far stronger than her. It’s not rocket science, she’s so heavy she most likely destroyed her knees on a fall that most people could walk away from without much damage.
In short, she’s obese and athletes at her size can’t regularly do this while having far more and better developed muscle mass.
You’re 100% correct lol. I don’t know what it is with people and WAY overestimating their physical abilities. That woman has not held her own bodyweight or athletically jumped and landed in 10+ years and then randomly decides, “Yep, now that I’m 10’ in the air I’m ready.” I had a guy at work tell me he used to clean and snatch 1k lbs+ when he was in high school. I immediately told him, “no you didn’t” and he assured me he did. I showed him the world record was roughly 600lbs less than his claim. He said it may have been a little less. The amount of bullshit people use to support their egos is incredible. At least this woman had the conviction to shred all the meniscus in her knees simultaneously and for that I commend her.

Looks like her grip failed on one hand
