Gonna look at this race as just that; What can Link or Link at 3/4 strength and clawed hands do.
@Moo/DP- Not really. The number from the increase [from gorons size to Dangoro's] is would be how much the volume is increased by, from multiplying Gorons weight by that number would show what a goron of Dangoros size would weight. He only resembles a sphere.
It is when that Biped is a giant super strong rock, who's been made more giant and moar super strong.
Kain is not sitting on 3/4 of Link's strength, even this early on. To put it bluntly, the boots together weigh more than Kain could lift over his head with his entire body. (Around 70 tons, if we discount that they can shift the entire platform in the Dangoro fight as well.) For him to actually lift a single foot with more than half what his entire body can lift seems implausible to me.
Also, the magnetic floor on that platform has insane grip. The strength required to lift a foot would be atleast doubled, since the magnets are strogn enough to pull Link to the ceiling with the boots on. Link walks on these floors with the same easy he walks around normally. (Read, I have my doubts how much trouble the boots actually cause Link.)
If Dangoro weighed sixty tons, a neat comprimise, and Link threw him about 10 m/s, Link's strength that early in the game was atleast: 2 721 554 joules. Compared to Kain.
2 721 554
...200 000
Yeah. 😐 Let's go ahead and use your 50 tons.
2 267 961
...200 000
Nope, still way stronger. Using that number, Link's overhead lifting strength when he throws Dangoro is: 555.5 short tons... Yeah.
