Greatest Lifting/Striking Strength feats?

So I know that Strength in the SWU isn't as...what's the word. Prevalent? In the SWU, by this I mean as far as Hand to Hand goes because in a Universe where there's blasters, lightsabers and Vibro weapons, strength isn't going to be noted all that much.

Like you won't see strength powerhouses like in the 100 ton range or anything like that.

But I'm curious, if anyone knows the best lifting and striking feats from characters?

Force User and Non-Force User?

Savage Opress Bench pressing 700 lb for 10 reps.

Really? Though I wouldn't call it the greatest lifting feat, since generic Enforcers can lift 1 ton. Still that's pretty neato.

That Prince Xizor guy seems pretty ripped too. I heard he can curl 120 lb for 18 reps in Shadow of the Empire.

Kurk..serious question, why must you treat this as a joke?

Adas lifting something that an entire race of Force Sensitive sith couldn't lift.

Didn't Luke crush diamond in the palm of his hands before?

Lifting and Striking D. Although that is pretty interesting.

Baras getting his fat ass out of bed every morning.

A Sith Alchemical axe.

He was able to hold two and fight with them with ease. Most of the ENTIRE Sith Race had to carry one with two hands.

Didn't Vader lift something that 12 storm troopers couldn't?

Yeah but lifting the axes aren't impossible to lift they just had to use both hands, it's great he lifted two with one hand each, but you said previously that he lifted something impossible.

When did I say that?

I should have said "Most".

But yeah, its pretty hard to do when most of the entire sith population couldn't lift two of them.

He supported the weight of 12 men.

Was 12 Storms as I recall? That all piled on him?

I guess Storms are all 6'0 given Leia's commentary about Luke being short.

A weight for a man that size, being medium frame 157-170 lbs(abit I'd hazard that Storms are more at the end of the weight)

So...157 X 12= 1,884

or

170 X 12= 2,084

Of course this isn't accounting for their armor or E-11s which add 22 lbs each(armor) and 9 lbs(E-11)

22 X 12= 264

9 X 12= 108

1,884 + 264 + 108= 2,256

2,084 + 264 + 108= 2,456

So Vader would be supporting a little over 1 ton.

Lifting strength: Durge lifting the upper half of an AT-TE.

Striking strength: I dunno, there's tons of'em that are pretty good.

He didn't actually lift them:

The energy beams didn't slow him down, though. Eppon picked up another trooper as though he weighed nothing, and hurled the armored soldier at the rest of the troop. The stormtroopers stumbled backward in a clatter of armor, crashing into Vader. The weight of a dozen men was not enough to move the Dark Lord, but the confusion caused by the troopers gave Gog an opening.
