The human limit has become 548 kg because of this, but thats not right. Oleksii was wearing a lifting belt, which helps a lot in deadlift, and, technically, is not his natural human strength.
Also, if you deadlift a 100 kg bar doesn't mean that your strength is only 100 kg, it means that you can lift 100 kg up to a certain distance. The greater the distance the more force and energy is distributed and expended.
For exemple, Eddie almost died lifting 500 kg, but he can later lift 536 kg without too much difficulty. Does this mean that Eddie has magically become stronger? No. Eddie lifting 500 kilograms was an incredibly higher distance, and therefore more difficult to lift.
The longer the distance, the less weight you lift. So, technically speaking, the moment you put the most force into something is when you can't move it.
But is there a device that doesnt move and is able to calculate how many newtons your body is capable of exerting? Yes (Eddie scored 750 kg). But I can't exactly find the highest value calculated, except the one that is on the link.
Basically, lets upgrade human limit to at least 750 kg for now
