I'm 6'4" and the only one of these that seems possible at all for me is a 3xBW deadlift. I can do 2xBW without too much work on it. I've been squatting 3x per week for the last year and a half to get to 325lb ATG. No way will I ever get to 600lb+. Some short stubby guys make it seem easy to squat 2.5xBW or bench 2xBW.
True 36" standing vert is very rare.

There are entire NCAA D1 secondaries where no starter or regular has under a 36 inch vert. I'm sure anyone at the Olympic trials for high jump can match this in addition to a decent number of volleyball and basketball players or any other vertical leap sports.
The raw 3x dead is probably more rare than a dude with a 36 inch vert.

meh, most of those vert numbers are BS. Its like 40 yard dash times, EVERYONE is running the 40 in 4.3 or whatever, but in reality almost none of them are. A true vert jump is flat flooted straight up in the air, and 36" is out of reach for the average person, regardless of the amount of training. Now maybe the same is true for a 3x deadlift, but I think given the way people age, The window to achieve a strength feat is much bigger than the window to achieve one based on explosive power.
