Have you ever been stopped for being overweight? Recently, an Australian trucker exceeded his weight limit by almost 3 million pounds. However, 70-year-old John Atkinson didn't get in trouble.

Atkinson won top honors by hitching his Mack Titan up to 113 loaded trailers and pulling them just longer than the length of a football field. The total weight was 2,865,980 pounds
