JOHN BRZENK pulls EVERYONE in the room after an arm wrestling event (Even John needs to warm up!)

I'm trying to keep it to a video a day but with all the snow flakes who came out yesterday because I dusted off the Scott Wynn footage....I feel the need to put some candy out there. These guys who got all upset because I dared to be provcative with my clip probably don't deserve it but I found this John footage from that event and just can't help but share. Also I have 9 years of content to upload so I can afford to double up a day here or there.
Now...I didn't give John Burgeson Sr. as much credit as he deserves on an earlier video for what he has done for the sport but back in the day he made sure that John Brzenk was at all his events....that is why we have this gold mine. So thank you John Burgenson. Which reminds me....it isn't too late to get John Brzenk you know...he loves going to tournaments so give him a call.
This was the Youth Project in 2009 and I love how John is with the kids here. They will remember this.
Pullers include Don McClary, Bruce Way, Harold Ryden, Justin Reidl, Chris K aka Khachatur Chakhmakhchyan, Vazgen Soghoyan, Justin Reidl, Dan Wardlaw, John Burgeson Senior as well as after pulling with Scott Medina, Gary Roberts, Kenneth Leach, Bruce Way, John Burgeson Jr., and Scott Partington.

These clips from long ago are so precious. Arm wrestling became more popular recently but the stories are old. You were so much ahead of time recording at that time. Thank you for providing us with these gems.

🤗❤️🤗❤️ Thank you. And I had no idea until a month ago. Strange how the world works. Very glad they are connecting with people so I will continue to share.

@@armtv What do you mean you have no idea, armwrestlingtv has been climbing strong now at 700k subscribers and he shoots videos mostly with his meme brother or 15th league amateur championships, he uses the same type of recording (handheld) with albeit much better camera, but you on the other hand have dozens of hours of content and from some armwrestling legends (some in the making). I remember I had to go to your outdated website and navigate the horrible video catalogue just to find a match that was lost in the youtube depths or never uploaded just mentioned on the forums or in comments on obscure armwrestling videos. It would be great if you have HD footage of the larratt/brzenk matches back in the mid 2000s at various tournaments. Those alone with good editing could net you couple of hundred thousands views if not millions if they go viral

[@armtv]

BlackPaw what are you smoking bro? I haven’t been paying attention to the sport since school boy was in diapers in 2014-2015. His channel had 10k followers then. And regarding my website please send the check to update everything and I will handle that right away. Our match search was ahead of its time... too bad you didn’t use that part of the site where you could just type on a name. I had to get another job in 2012 and it slowly took me away from the sport until a month ago when I decided to begin sharing the old content AND even being gone from the sport I still paid 1800 a year to keep the site active so you could go struggle with it... lol... you are welcome. AND for a Final what are you talking about.... KZbin didn’t exist when I began filming so “being lost from YT” is a literal slap in the face comment. Most of my content was never on KZbin AND If you had been paying attention at all... I AM sharing everything. Spending a lot of Time and energy prepping the videos so AGAIN... you are welcome. Thanks for being here.

5:39 *"I beat John Brzenk"* I bet that young man slept fantastically for the next decade with a great story. What an honor :)

[@eleazar91]

I think he let him win. He could have just hold on his hook and wait to his rival energy deplete (larratt style), yet he knew that he had to keep pulling for a few hours maybe, and he drop the pull on a humble way

[@illskilled1]

@@eleazar91 no shit he let him win. That was a teenager lol.

[@haydersultan]

@@illskilled1 at first he was just holding (trolling in other sense) But then he realized that he cant get back to his position and let him win. He could have easily hooked him and win but i dont know why he let him win. Maybe just to keep his morale high.

[@dougw1650]

Gary, there is no question that you are the goat when it comes to arm wrestling camera work! I've heard people say that tournaments are too hard to video with continuity, but you prove that wrong over and over. You are some kind of savant genius, no doubt about it. Your eye for framing and visual balance is so perfect it's painful. You fearlessly put the camera right in peoples faces. The emotional content of your footage is nothing short of miraculous. I heard you say on (I think it was) your interview with Niel that, "Now that everyone has smart phones, anyone can do what you do". Are you crazy? No one else even comes close to the artistry you have created. Of course you deserve to get paid for your work, but I don't think there's $'s enough to compensate your artistry. Oh, and your documentary on Akos was like the best documentary I've ever watched, and I don't even care about ultra marathons! Rock on Gary!

[@armtv]

Uh this might be the nicest thing anyone has ever said to me. Can I frame this? I’m definitely taking a screen shot and showing my mother lol. Bro you have made my day. I’m not entirely sure that it’s all true but I’ll take it. Regarding the cell phones... people might appreciate it today but it did impact the sign ups back then so no new sign ups I didn’t have the money to get a ticket to the next event. Thank you again for such kindness.

This is great stuff... you could post this all day and I'm a happy guy. Now, if Travis was doing this, he would have slammed those kids to the pad... :) All in good fun of course! If I remember correctly, he usually says something like "Kids gotta learn you don't just get stuff handed to you!" Two great ambassadors of the sport, to be sure, but there is no one that brings more class than John. Thanks for posting! To me everything you put up is gold because, at least from my perspective, I haven't seen it before so it's all new stuff to absorb. Just curious... at 4:00 in, was that a turkey leg that kid was holding or John's thumb?
