Briefly News spoke to Blake Louwrens, u105kg World record deadlift holder 415kg, SA and Africa’s strongest man 16/17/18/21 and SA and Africa log and axle record holder 165/160kgs, to find out what it takes to do this.

"No easy. But he has a vehicle hooked up to the back of the van, so the weight is actually pushing to the back, so the van is actually lifting. He's just basically touching it. Not ogin to say it is easy, but I am not going to say it is very hard. All I am saying is that if the back of the van wasn't towed to another vehicle, he wouldn't pick the front up."

Mzansi people share their views on the man's perceived impressive strength
