Shane Hamman (born June 20, 1972) is an American Olympic weightlifter and powerlifter.
Hamman grew strong lifting large pallets of produce for his father's fruit market.
He trained as a powerlifter after high school, but after seeing the 1996 Summer Olympics, he decided to switch his career to Olympic-style weightlifting.
Despite his 350 pounds (160 kilograms) frame, he can hit a golf ball 350 yards (320 m), do a standing back flip, and leap vertically three feet (0.9 m).
Hamman also visits high schools to promote "Rachel's Challenge", a program for which he is a spokesperson.
