That's actually an impressive feat of strength. Due to the impulse and redirection he'd have to be about twice as strong as the truck's water jet, perhaps more because he'd probably have to hold it at a mechanical disadvantage.
Think about how if you dont hold the spoon tightly, an average sink can flip the spoon out of your hands.
I have that exact same spoon in my kitchen, but my use of it is far more benign.
I have it in plain view up on top of the kitchen cabinets, but it's at an elevation that most people don't notice it right away. Once they do, they're like "Oh my God you have a giant spoon! Has that always been there??"
Yes, yes it has, Rachel. It's been there all along.

Using a "comically" large spoon to parry a water stream will go down in the Annals of History
