Yeah he should be able to!
It depends a lot of technique and how he lifts you. If you mean squat, grab you, and then stand up with you, I weigh like 140 and I can lift people heavier than myself lol Cradling you in his arms is trickier, though I think he could do it.
Your legs can support a lot of weight it's just in how you transfer the load. The bear-hug and sitting-on-shoulders method are pretty direct, with cradling it becomes a matter of how well you can brace your arms. Holding the person real close and bracing your elbow on your pelvic bone should make the load path very reasonable. Trying to carry someone without bracing your arms against your torso, way tougher - now your biceps have to take all of it...
lol typical engineer, talking about load paths to respond to a question on GAG =P
I had a hard time picking up my 3 year old nephew a few years ago. 3 years before that, I could lift a kid that same weight with one arm. It's not just how much a person weighs, it's about distribution, how much they can normally pick up, and several other factors.
I can't pick up more than 50 pounds because I broke multiple bones in my foot several years ago, which I think messed me up.
He probably can although after a while of holding you he might start to feel your weight. But you're def. not heavy. I am about the same weight as you. I am 5'6 126 lbs (and people call me feather weight.)
if he can't, it's not because you're overweight. so whatever, let him give it a shot.

Yeah I think he can like pick you up/ bear hug you/ give you a piggy back right. But I doubt he can man handle you and bench press you or shot put you if that's what you mean.
He should be able to at his size. I'm smaller than him, and I can pick you up.
he probably can't press you overhead but he shouldn't have any problem picking you up
Unless he's exceptionally muscular (doesn't sound like it), no. He shouldn't try.
of course he can carry you, you're not heavy.
That's nothing, he can carry you.
Yeah, fairly easily.
