Original Note:
Since the weight is on the end of a lever connected to a pivot point, it takes a certain amount of torque. The shorter the distance between the point the force is being applied and the pivot point, an exponentially greater abound of force is needed to lift the weight https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Moment_(physics) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Force
