What do you think of this forgotten Goku lifting feat?

This is from Dragon Ball GT episode 6. The team are hunting for a Dragon Ball on a distant planet where everything is gigantic.

The crew were only the size of small bugs on this planet, while everything else including this giant guy was proportionately bigger. The giant seemed to have strength proportionate to his size because he was seen casually doing human things, like hunting giant animals and using giant sticks to make a fire to roast a giant fish.

I would say he was as big as a skyscraper.

I'd prefer to forget the early parts of GT.

Funny how he & Vegeta needed SSJ4 to hold up an actual skyscraper when fighting Yi Xing Long...

Who said they NEEDED it?
You expected them to turn back to base, hold it and then turn SSJ4 again?

They seemed to be having some trouble holding it in SSJ4. I imagine that if they went to base then the building would've came tumbling down.

If they didnt need it, they wouldn't have been visibly struggling to do it in SSJ4. It's just yet another hilariously dumb scene in GT's vast collection of dumb scenes.

Where did they struggle again? The only thing i recall is Vegeta saying he is "a little busy" so he can't do the fusion dance now and was shown holding a building with no room to move without letting it fall or blasting it that would alarm Omega in instant.
Goku wasn't even holding it. He was just lying there under entire building on him. Goku said to Omega that they didn't fuse then because there was no room and since they were trying to buy time, letting it fall and appearing in front of him wouldn't let them fuse. So even if we assume anyone was struggling it would ONLY be Vegeta anyway. So bringing this scene here is completely pointless when no matter what you can't say that Goku was struggling with anything.
