Curious as to how babies have such a strong grip on things they get their hands on even at such a young age

They’re not strong.

You are just choosing to be weak against them to not hurt them.

If you applied the same force to handle them as you would a grown man, you would seriously hurt them and they’d have no chance against you.

It’s a psychological factor that happens subconsciously and is an evolutionary trait we evolved… for obvious reasons.

Sociopaths lack this emotional bond / limitation,
which is why so many injured/killed babies happen in homes where one or both parents are either psychopaths or sociopaths.
