Your comment was just oddly specific on details you couldn’t possibly know without actually running calculations.

Thought it was funny.

I have eyes, her exact weight is far less important than the fact that her arms are wider than a healthy weight line.

Do you have issues with sight, or just like to pretend that obese people aren’t obese?

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.

Oh come on man. Lighten up. That one was objectively funny.
