You can see that she gets him in a headlock and yanks him up. He clearly had no choice and was only saved by the intervention of her friends.

A few weeks ago I decided to buy bark chippings for the flower beds in my garden. I went to the garden centre and saw they had very large bags on special offer. I paid for 3 bags and got a flat trolley to take them back to my truck. I tried to lift one from the stack and found it was extremely heavy so I pulled it down on to the trolley. I decided to take one at a time and went back to my truck. I bent down to pick it up and found there was no way I would be able to lift it on my own.
While I pondered my options (get help or ask for a refund), a fit looking lady wearing a garden centre outfit approached me and said it looked like I needed a hand. I gladly accepted and bent down take one side of the bag, expecting her take the other side. She said she would manage herself and lifted the bag on to the truck. I thanked her and she started to walk away. I was embarrassed to tell her I had 2 more bags to collect. She said it was no problem. She took the trolley, collected the other bags and loaded them on to my truck.
As I thanked her again she said that this batch of chippings were soaking wet making the bags very heavy and she had to help several other customers load them in to their vehicles.

This might be the best one I've read. Do you have a guess on what her approximate height, weight and age are, and how those compare to your stats? I feel like it's unusual for women to just outwardly display their strength around men, especially if they're flat out stronger so wondering if perhaps you're older or on the smaller side which is why she didn't want your help with picking it up

Two years ago me and a couple of friends had an open air party with a generator to power the music PA. At some point the generator was out of gas and we had to refill it. To restart it, you had to pull on a cord with quite some force. I tried a couple of times with all my strength, but for some reason it did not start. Then two or three other guys tried as well for many times - also without success. After a while we kinda gave up thinking there must be some other problem. Maybe we flooded the engine? Then a girl asked if she could try. She wasn't muscular or big, just pretty average in body type and kinda pretty. I said, sure give it a go!
So she grabbed the cord and pulled it forcefully just once. The generator immediately started on her first try. It was both unexpected and impressive, since we all had failed miserably.
Everybody cheered, since the music could go on. Nobody was embarrassed. I don't really think she was actually stronger than all the guys, even though her pull definitely was quite powerful. It's even possible that it was just pure luck. However, she did make it work after several bigger guys were unable to do it. It was pretty cool in that moment.
