Frank Rothwell's Weightlifting History 2002 Super-heavy 263Kg World Record. 2of2

[@ErikBlekeberg]

Tchmerkin straight up pressed that second attempt. What a beast of a man.

[@LOPcik]

World record is 266KG By Leonid Taranenko...

[@jtoddjb]

thanks for posting these vids , i really appreciate it

[@jeffmuenster5131]

Can't believe they passed it. He did not have the weight under full control for a two count.

[@jondrewE]

Yeah would have loved to see that, Reza has never struggled when his lifts come together

[@hectordelorenzi]

thanks you so much for excellent videos!!!! I waintig for London!!! regards hector

[@EinarBMAN]

Liked to see you try those weights.

[@burner2231]

@dan7edan7e All supports actually slow you down, and that is why they generally decrease performance in weightlifting. Weightlifters generally only use supports when they have pain in the joint (knee wraps, knee warmers, wrist supports), or need extra support with maximal weights (belts).

[@Apjooz]

Yes I remember at some contest that he missed the jerk at around 263 so make no mistake, he was at his limits.

[@ddrangerdd1]

Different sports what you just said should never be compared, technique is important in this sport because improper technique means he cheated to lift it. In sprinting on the other hand technique is not punished because the sport requires getting from point A to point B regardless how big/tall/short you are and regardless any differences in technique.

[@ORTprod]

I can't even imagine what that feels like.

[@JD_2597]

He should have used his last lift, 263 was too easy.

[@headbuttsforphaticcommunio3731]

he has 270 in him there easy,

[@dfpguitar]

Events like shot put and triple jump are just as draconian with rules.

[@qtpie2630]

chemerkin pressed 240kg Wtf

[@Apjooz]

***** The only guy who can barely clean the weight but then goes on and presses it out regardless (the 2nd attempt).

[@SuperOlds88]

Hardly a press when he half-jerked it then finished it off with a mushy press-out. This isn't bodybuilding lifts.

[@ravishsomashekar8265]

Great strength great men of steel

[@kileystrickland8324]

he was moving forward on that last lift

[@haroldpepete]

even at 2020 with lasha 264 record, Rezzadeh's clean is out this world, the best ever

[@PREDATOR991000]

2021 Talaxadze 225 - 267 💪

[@haroldpepete]

@@PREDATOR991000 i knew it, but even in 267 rezazadeh has the best clean ever, even kurlovich weighting 130 was able to lif twice his bodyqeight

[@PREDATOR991000]

@@haroldpepete Lasha is much higher and more difficult to raise 2 meters than 1.50

[@1vootman]

Rez starts when others fail!

[@OlyGoal]

Cmon man, its the lift that is being judged, not just getting the weight overhead. They used to have the Clean and Press but it was removed. This is the clean and jerk, so they need to jerk the weight, not press it.

[@OlyGoal]

It was clearly a pressout. In olympic weightlifting during a jerk the elbows must be locked out in one smooth motion. Ie it has to be snappy & the elbows have to stay locked out. Many lifts are disallowed due to pressouts.

[@Asilkhan234]

He could do more than 263 , it was pretty easy for him

[@muthaflela5548]

+Асылхан Алданазар yes but the snap was hard for him

[@KarlosPaco33]

Thanks Frank!!!!

[@andrewsutubeacct]

mariusz personal best squat is close to 800, and his best deadlift is around 900. I think reza probably has a shoulder press for sure than mariusz.

[@eowdaoc]

Chemmy has a ridiculous amount of brute strength. Look at how he fucking cleans! Holy shit! Doesn't even rack it!

[@NickyYeomans]

This is a push jerk. It still counts as a jerk. If it were a press, you would not see the weightlifter's kness bend. There are several olympic weightlifters that use this style. A split jerk is what you are probably refering to. Either is correct form. For the record, pressing this amount of weight would be a record in itself.

[@cimmayrivard4533]

great upload thanks.

[@InFlamesAddictive]

Not really, no. It's one of the most complicated, without a doubt. Personally, I don't think you can put the label "World Strongest Man" on anyone. The WSM competition really is as close as you can get, cuz it tests the athletes in so many different forms.

[@ristestankovski]

Why Andrei Chemerkins second lift wasnt accepted?

[@BlobTheBunny]

These guys are stronger than bodybuilders I imagine, if that's what you're asking.

[@barath4545]

Its not so much how strong he is and how impressive it is. Its more the speed and fashion he got up off the floor after the WR! Bloody athletic speed. I liked him back when he was so strong and not hugely obese like he then became. Today I just wish Behdad was beat the 263 and then the 266, and then officialize his 217 so we can get the 1980s records off the board.

[@RapatipatooO]

He should have broke taranenko record of 266 than we would get rid of all these arguments about this, damn he could easily do 270, waste

[@ForAll23]

Aha, I was out of space and forgot to remove "(see below)", but I did mention Mariusz Pudzianowski. To name a few others: Brian Shaw, Žydrūnas Savickas and Mikhail Koklyaev. The latter is also an incredibly weight lifter (OL).

[@carloscruz102]

Well that explication is ... but the thing here is that is more difficult to do the press like Chemerkin does in this video so whats the problem???

[@eowdaoc]

i had to read that like 5 times to make sense of it :P

[@ForAll23]

Mr. Rezazadeh is the best Olympic lifter (in super heavyweight). It is a mix of techniques and strength. When it comes to pure strength, there are many in the world to beat him easily (see below). Strength can of course be measured in many ways. Instantaneous power, strength over time (year after year, for example. Mariusz Pudzianowski), different stages, repetitions strength. However, Olympic weightlifting is NOT a measure of pure strength.

[@zarol95]

okay.. idk anything about oly lifting but why did andrei got 3 red lights for the 247kg? i thought he got it ? thanks

[@GODFATHERx09]

just these guys can probably carry two 150 kilos on each shoulder ...

[@training4power]

He didnt lock his arms in the jerk, he pressed out the weight after he jerked it

[@rayss1971]

I love this guy !

[@TheBodybuilder13]

He made that look so easy.

[@davidpardy]

It helps them have more stability, to fight against the bar's weight.

[@ThelegendAtlas]

I can see that, but I'm looking at it in the light of he needed a parallel squat and went ATG. Thus why i don't do olympic style lifting I guess.

[@ee7582]

фиксации снаряда не было . Хотя и вытолкнул хорошо . Если по правилам - то должен быть не зачитан подход . А если по людски - зачитан , как и сделали судьи.

[@dan7edan7e]

why is rezazadeh the only one to use knee wraps?

[@cooolachristian]

This is not a world record

[@jonathanstenger9179]

It’s in kilos, not pounds bro

[@jamese9283]

Why are press outs against the rules?

[@Steffesa]

What are they smelling before the lift?

[@TheConnor2792]

I can only dream of ever being able to even deadlift this weight:/

[@ChknAdobo]

Hossein kind of roled the bar right before the pull. i thought the bar had to be dead before any pull?!

Just because someone isn't Natural doesn't mean they are not stronger and just because someone is tested does not mean they are Natural.

[@Zombiefruit]

Thats 580lbs held overhead, goddamn

[@samanmm]

there is a video of Rezazadeh front squatting 617 really easy. I'd bet he can back squat more than 800. Most importantly Mariusz does not have to get tested for PEDs in every competition ;)

[@Chatellier95]

I can understand why they do it, it is called the clean and jerk not the clean and pressout.

[@mrericmandude]

I can hardly get over how off Chemerkin was in this, he was struggling with weight that should have been final warm ups to him in this phase of the competition.

[@zarol95]

thanks for the info !

[@Andyy0123]

to imagine that this is my deadlifting max after 4 Years of training...... he is.... FUCKING STRONG :P

[@jamesgrist1101]

can someone explain 7:47 ? he seemed to lift it above his head cleanly + arms straight to me. why not qualified?

[@coachfears]

Because he pressed it out. That is illegal in weightlifting. This is the clean and jerk-no press outs allowed.

[@kiliantreminio]

Your arms have to lock out, before the weight comes back down. No pressing out with the arms allowed.

[@lordoftheriffs79]

I think he pressed the weight, hence why he got three reds

[@Lytv8]

How about it means they are tested.

[@boricuafrican1]

who is?

[@ThelegendAtlas]

8:30 why did he get red lighted? I barely understand Olympic lifting.

[@boricuafrican1]

if Mariusz is your strongest man, many people can out squat/bench/shoulder press him too...

[@kopk888]

well locking out is part of the requirement like you have to stay in your lane while running. rules are rules

На этом турнире судьи просто лютуют!!! Эти соревнования для судей? Простые зрители понятия не имеют почему не засчитывают попытки или почему одни из судей красный сигнал зажигает

[@keeperofthecheese]

I hate it when the snatch is not clean.... if you know what i mean.

[@Apjooz]

Why are strong men punished? Chemerkin fucking got that 247.5. When are we going to disqualify sprinters with faulty running technique. "Yes, you made the 100 meters in 9.2 seconds but your posture was so much off we can't look past that". Weightlifting does something similar at the moment.

[@JacktheDaniels]

What was the deal with Chemerkin? He couldn't even get the weight onto his shoulders, he was holding it football player style with his hands! Pretty sad showing for a guy that used to be such a beast...

[@boricuafrican1]

all that and you never even answered the question... who is?

[@elijahrobinson2362]

I just don’t like seeing the guys with knee wraps. Any wraps seems to me to be a slight form of ‘aided’ lifting.

He is Seldjuk

Lev Altun he is an Iranain

[@xdonnix]

no?

[@fuerzabruta88]

the king..

[@A.Ferkel]

Wahnsinn !

[@Chatellier95]

He got red lighted because when he attempted to jerk the weight he pressed it out, which is an illegal move.

[@moisesg.286]

To do that, one must be a god.

[@misterlamp1]

He presses it out

[@wazark]

"arguably the strongest man in the world".... when it comes to the c&j, yes...

[@babyfaceassassin21]

in my town people can carry two 50 kilos of rice on their shoulders going up a mountain and they are maybe 5x smaller than that guy.... ill tell them to join this coming olympics in london

[@XxJAKExX1995]

Razah isn't fat

[@MidnightTitan]

im a crossfitter and wut is this?

[@refuseit]

I disagree. Pressing the weight is actually way harder in most cases, it's dumb to say it's cheating. In the C&J, the only judging crieria should be getting the bar up from the ground to a locked position above the head. In my opinion, at least.

[@XowntXihqX]

while your bragging how clean you can wipe your arse, this guy's going around with the title of strongest olympic lifter.
