Abe Lincoln was said to have performed lots of crazy feats of strength in his day, and to have only very rarely lost a wrestling match.
"In 1998 the University of Illinois Press published "Herndon's Informants", edited by Douglas L. Wilson and Rodney O. Davis. On page 7 is a May 28, 1865 letter to William H. Herndon from his cousin, J. Rowan Herndon. An excerpt, as written, follows: "... he was By fare the stoutest man that i ever took hold of i was a mear Child in his hands and i considered my self as good a man as there was in the Cuntry untill he Come about i saw him lift Betwen 1000 and 1300 lbs of Rock waid in a Boxx ..."
Continuing Herndon's account: "There is no fiction either, as suggested by some of his biographers, in the story that he lifted a barrel of whisky from the ground and drank from the bung; but in performing this later almost incredible feat he did not stand erect and elevate the barrel, but squatted down and lifted it to his knees ...""

1300lbs has to be exaggerated but I belive he was insanely strong. There is also a story of a couple of dudes telling him to skip town when he was like 15 that ends in him whooping the entire town's ass
I thought Reagan might have been fit but I looked it up and he looked dyel when he was young. Disappointed tbqh.

I've read it was done via a pulley and harness apparatus, so it may very well be legit, since it's not as though he just hoisted it like an atlas stone
