Munich's annual Oktoberfest is a gala of lederhosen, pretzels, bratwurst, and - of course - many steins of beer.

Now, during this vibrant festival, a waitress has achieved viral fame after showcasing an extraordinary feat; carrying 13 massive steins of beer simultaneously!

The city of Munich teems with thousands of beer aficionados every year, all congregating to revel in the beer-laden festivity that is Oktoberfest. While attendees are busy indulging in the amber delight, waiters and waitresses are the unsung heroes ensuring that the frothy bevs reach the hands of eager merrymakers.

This year, one waitress has reached what could only be described as the zenith of bar work. A video circulated on TikTok by user @verenaangermeier depicted her astonishing ability to carry 13 steins in one go. To add perspective to this feat, a stein holds two pints, meaning she maneuvered through the bustling crowd bearing the weight of 26 pints!

The viral clip has captivated TikTok users, amassing 3.3 million likes. The platform was abuzz with thousands of comments expressing sheer astonishment at her impeccable balance, skill, and strength. The comments were a mix of admiration for her skills and playful banter about the world-renowned festival. Check out the impressive video below:

It wasn't long before the video was flooded with comments praising the server for her impressive skills, with one person writing: "What in the actual Oktoberfest is this feat of super human strength!!!?"

A second added: "What in the... I can’t even carry my coffee mug from the kitchen to the couch without a major malfunction!!!"

"I keep watching these and think of her back. She is amazing though. I definitely couldn't do it. I have no hand strength," a third added.

However, others couldn't help but point out the rather large frothy head on the beers, with one person commenting: "Most are only half full so I would only pay for half a beer."

"Gotta love being served half a mug of beer of full price. Head is nice but never that much on expensive beers," another critic wrote. "That's the bar scam that gets normalized."

Nevertheless, as impressive as her balancing act was, she still has quite a journey if she aspires to surpass the current world record held by Oliver Strümpfel. Strümpfel achieved a staggering record by carrying 29 steins over a 40-meter distance back in 2017.

This equates to carrying around 69kg! Strümpfel revealed that rigorous training involving hitting the gym “three or four times a week” had been part of his preparation leading up to his world record attempt.
