Thanks. You guys are awesome! I always wondered, what does the giglio weigh and how many lifters carry it? I’d like to figure out how much weight each person carries.
@@toddcamnycthe Giglio weighs about 7000 pounds give or take(3.5 tons) including the band. It’s about 112 men under there at one time at MOST. So roughly 60-75 lbs per man, but some definitely shoulder more of the weight than others. If everyone was equally lifting the same, it would feel much lighter. It feels different for everyone depending upon your height and where you’re lifting due to the curvature of the streets, since they’ve been ripped up and paved over so many times.
Our favorite coverage!
