That day ......he was undefeated in any circumstances..........he could have lifted anything

[@baileywood2116]

He would've lifted a skyscraper to get that gold

[@arturovedolla1535]

He could have lifting the whole world

[@haristsp6025]

No he fucking couldn’t, but gold is gold

[@Beccati.sto.trapezio]

Im not crying, i have only 258 kg in my eyes 😢

[@naokaderapider4210]

damn, that sounds painful

[@staticismic]

ouch

[@Khansou50]

Enough to make a grown man cry

[@maximusw01]

“And that’s ok” 🥹

[@DownUnderDM]

As a grown man who is currently crying, I can confirm

[@mits0trelos]

@@DownUnderDM me too

[@fishguts87]

Me, too ❤

[@lalbiakniafreddy7899]

How could a 52 second video make me shed tears

[@user-tl3lf4tq1b]

انا كذلك 😢😢😢😢😢😢

[@luizreyes2868]

What it stands for what it holds I know that for a fact because of history your not there but there's that feeling I can't somewhat explain

[@thefreetoplayz4041]

"There were 4 hands on the bar that day"😢

[@ymb7873]

Only thing that’s more beautiful is how Mattias relied on her beautiful spirit to bring him back from the depths of training day after day after day.

[@ZTheSaint]

A shepherd, never leaves his flock. Matthias never gave up on his promise. And he was so determined to reel the gold back in. God bless this man

[@manawearblack]

Seen it a dozen times and it still makes me well up every time

[@markuskoivisto]

Every year I get older and every year this makes my cry more and more.

[@kapzvara5732]

Couldn't help but cry to this video

[@claus24845]

you are not alone

[@whitewatercsgo]

Insane what true adrenaline can do. I’ve been through a break up with a woman I truly loved without getting closure. A few days after that break up, and I was lifting the 44 kgs dumbbells in incline bench press… I felt weak up to my normal heavy lifts, but I gave it a shot. This is the only time in my life I have ever psyched myself up to this level. No amount of stems, hardcore music or motivational talks could reach this level of adrenaline. It was not hate, but pure sorrow while knowing deep down I still would sacrifice myself for that woman. I was visibly shaking non stop, no thoughts, no feelings of crying but still a tear running down. And while I pressed those weights they felt like pillows. The speed of the reps were the same, but the gravity in my hand, arms, shoulders and chest felt like nothing. My record with those weights full out on a good day, was 10 reps. I crushed it and did 16. And not even remotely tired or fatigued… absolute insanity levels of adrenaline. Was heartbroken for 1 and a half year

[@BboyDschafar]

I hope you are feeling better, champ.

[@turkologistifaz]

One of those moments when, even the strongest men cries. Truly beautiful and emotional.

[@pupper5580]

It's crazy he managed to do 258 kg after failing 246 kg - also he failed 235 kg in his warmup. 248 kg to 258 kg is a crazy jump. When I first saw this video I thought yeah that's really cool, he managed to push the weight, and he won gold. But then I was like 258 kg? That sounds like a lot. And the further I looked into it, the crazier the number 258 kg started to sound like. Definitely a magical moment!

[@MarkSmithhhh]

Nobody was beating him that day...nobody

[@protectwhatisours6895]

✊🏾, I don’t think a single spectator or athlete was disappointed when he won.

[@dbhai3986]

Beautiful animation. I particularly loved the music, it fits beautifully.

[@Shisane]

a man with a sheer will, commitment and perseverance. His dedication really undefeatable, im not crying the tears suddenly burst out

[@quetzalthegamer]

The music accompanying the animation is amazing.

[@DiabolicalAngel]

I cry everytime. What a testament to the human spirit.

[@BookwormFUT]

As men, we live and we die for our women. I'm so proud of this guy. Legend!

[@Sumit_Girhe]

But vice versa is rare.

[@dude12394]

​@@Sumit_Girhe but not unheard of, love, true unconditional love is out there, there men and women who would walk through hell itself for the ones they love.

[@LorenzTraining]

Inspiring and heartbreaking. Literally crying my eyes out. All the love, all the power.

[@applepieexplosion4030]

There's no amount of weight he couldn't have lifted that day.

[@derycksummer578]

Matthias didn't need any superpowers. His love for Susann was enough. She made him invincible.

[@richi516]

That day, those seconds, in memory of his deceased wife, would have also raised this world.

[@Beast.strong_7899]

And On that day he was truly the strongest man 😢

[@harshimellowe6809]

My entire body's hair stood up nd tears fell from my eyes as i quitely smiled when his wife came to hold it🥺🥺

[@el_mal_de_ojo]

All the proof you need that people may die but their presence remains in a way that can be felt.

[@DanielCarmona-h8d]

I dont remember the last time that I shed an actual tear, thanks.

[@chadthundercock5641]

Didn't know I was going to cry today, but okay

[@umutmirackahraman5217]

Viva el verdadero amor, amor de la vieja escuela !! .. de la de nuestros padres, de nuestros abuelos (con ellos existía las Familias ..familias unidas .. No como ahora en estos "tiempos modernos" donde los jóvenes se separan y ya no hay familia completa. Se me salió una lágrima de la emoción del valor del amor.🥲 Saludos de Lima Perú, 10 agosto 2024 10:15 am
