It's the early days of really crap camera film that needed about a minute of exposure time. She probably could lift three men at once - if she found three horse jockeys, that might be less than 120 kg - but couldn't hold the pose completely motionless for the time needed to take the picture. Hence the 'carefully staged' photo.
