In a country where Olympic weightlifting is so underappreciated, Im proud to have Hampton Morris be one our spearheads for this sport.

[@vladibarraza]

I cheer for him and I'm not even American.

[@makeascene1587]

Everyone involved in the making of this deserves a lot of praise. Great story telling, great production value, great content. Can’t wait to see Hamilton perform at the Olympics in just a few days.

[@saphna2095]

love how his dad & couch came across in this:) I watched Nate's documentary and sure didn't think ill of him, but there was some warmth in their connection missing that totally got captured here, what a great team!

[@eugenepoon]

"Nate's documentary"? This is Nate's documentary? Suck Less studios is him, and it says it's directed by him at the start

[@saphna2095]

*previous, the "hamp the champ" docu

@eugenepoon sped

[@jennoland2107]

Loved this so much and can relate to Hampton as well. Once i found weightlifting I set stricter rules for myself to be able to lift the best that I can. Going to bed early 9 pm, so I can wake up at 4 am and start lifting by 5 am. No drugs or alcohol, counting macros, being mindful of my body so I can be a good weightlifting athlete. I love our USA weightlifting team and i hope they win gold in the Olympics!!!

[@hannahadkins22]

You've got this Jen!

[@jennoland2107]

​@hannahadkins22 hi coach!!! 😂 lol love you thank you ❤

[@maxwebeats6305]

“It’s lonely at the top” is such a spot on quote when it comes to peak performance on the top level in any sport.

[@ianlee7786]

Thanks for including more of Tripp and their relationship. Not that we are entitled to it, but just because the Hamp the Champ video made me feel worried about it. This capture that it’s hard and complicated, and that they’re both thoughtful about it.

[@abbythe7035]

Hampton Murray is now very famous on the Chinese internet, and people love his kindness and sincerity, as well as his love from China

[@hadriend123]

Okay, now, I can that, WL House are the best creators for weightlifting ! This episode is so beautiful, so well manage, songs are just on the right tempo, great songs. All the plan of Hampton and his father are good, if you want a KZbin account to watch weightlifting, it's here and it's juste the greatest !

[@theex7]

Very nice documentary. Love this type of content, keep it coming. Also Nate is the perfect videographer since he exactly knows, as a weightlifter himself, how to capture these special moments and perspectives

[@BenDodson-id8em]

What a legend - can't wait to see how he goes in the Olympics

[@pabloramirezdiaz7668]

Congrats on this documentary, it's really a great piece of work! Keep on 👍🏼

[@xyrussalii]

Goldmine of knowledge. Especially seeing how he handles each day out👌🏽

[@kevinlo212]

"Yes you can!......Get after it soon!" Chills every time.

[@_Oscar326]

What a good kid! Do well in Paris 2024 Olympics Hampton! Get out there and do your best and enjoy the experience! The best to you and your support team. 🏋🏻‍♂️ You’re already a winner! 🌟

[@Urkuriasd]

Great documentary. If you enjoyed this I highly recommend also watching the documentary Hamp the Champ from the same creators.

[@kevindittler6524]

Absolutely Wonderful video showcasing the work, efforts and love everyone puts in this sport. Just wait one day soon the snatch feel and keys will lock in and he will hit world records in the snatch. His strength and dedication is Phenomenal & Inspirational!! Thanks for the video crew and Thank You Hampton, You Make This World a Much Better Place for Everyone!💯⚡️💥🏋️‍♂️✨🏆🥇🌟🙏😀

[@ThaDirtyVicar]

Thank you for putting this out. Supporting Hampton from the CNMI near the Marianas Trench!

[@xiaotchang]

Oh wow what a collab Weightlifting House x Nate Cerwinske x Hampton Morris!

[@wilsonscott2370]

I remember Bob Bednarski, the previous American men's world record holder's world records--waiting for the latest issues of S&H to arrive. I was so disappointed when he failed to qualify for the '68 olympics. But now I have this young man to follow. Bob did come back to win the '69 World in the 242.

[@jayjaylikewah]

Be rooting for hamp tomorrow! Love from Ireland buddy! Big up to Nate Cerwinske, underrated channel, did a great job.

[@booleann___]

Hamp + Hamp's dad are goated

[@4eetu]

really looking forward to tomorrow. what a legend

[@HEKTOKOTYL]

really appreciated this documentary. great job!

[@OrangeCatPianist-dv3ut]

Amazing real content ❤👏

[@MitchieFerg]

Awesome content, super high production level

[@lbogaj]

Brilliant video. What a blast to watch.

[@BeijingTesla]

Excellent documentary, well done to all

[@hoyounlee9193]

Great video, Nate's editing and directing is getting better by the second, great work bro. The video went a bit slow though. Never zoned out watching a WLHouse or Nate's videos, this was the first, but awesome content as always.

[@Ckjohn77kg]

Already watched on WLH TV, still gonna come here for algo boost!

[@genova8148]

Nate is fire! great lifter and director! Let's gooo!

[@christianbailleul7049]

Bonjour je suis Français et je lui souhaite bonne chance ici aux jeux pour la médaille d'Or. Je vais le suivre pendant la compétition et surtout ne changer pas rester simple .C'est très rare les sportifs qui n'ont pas "la grosse tête" 🏋‍♂🏋‍♂👍👍

[@xxAoPxx]

Holy cow, wish I'd known this story before the games. What an incredibly likable individual and major kudos to his small but determined team. Great documentary, as always an amazing job at showing the human side to the athlete's story.

[@sandrost4243]

It's hard not to like Hamp, just a solid guy and lifter.

[@DtDrum1]

Man this was amazing. I hope there’s more episode with the other lifters!!

[@billkerr1883]

What a wonderful video. Well done to all who put it together.

[@michi_bella]

Just loved every second of it ❤

[@rustyelder]

He is so FAST with his jerk. I have really enjoyed learning about this young man. What a performer and such maturity for being at the top of his sport. Bravo WLH.

[@eveanddell]

I just started getting into this sport and I have to say this was so well done. And being a father/coach as well, I deeply understand the struggles and joy it brings.

[@JohnDoherty-dl2fz]

Great vid Nate. I saw it originally when it was on Weightliftinghouse TV but I enjoyed it just as much this time around. One thing that seems odd to me is that Hamps competition cl & jk is very close to his trading best but I see at least 7 kg difference in the snatch bests; 127-134. If he can close that gap I still don’t think he’ll beat Li Fabin but he’ll more easily beat Massida or whoever. 133-177 would be frickin awesome. Bring it on home Hamp!

[@jimg6178]

Great story, love Hamp the Champ!!! be interesting to see how his snatch has improved. I’ll bet it has.

[@jlrbhj]

Thank you for this work and the resulting video.

[@bakotako]

gj nate. awesome video. olympics gonna be wild

[@tfwwhennofitlitgf3300]

nate killing it

[@loganward2621]

How can you not like his story and what he may get done past what he has already accomplished.

[@theactualtrokz]

Cant wait to see Hamp the Champ compete

[@marcuscustodio9338]

Whata great content

[@kurtp5423]

This was awesome! Wish it included some of his viral vids in a commercial gym where people have no idea if what they're seeing is real or not. Archer needs to give this kid his jerky for free.

[@PrimeWeedy]

🥹yes…. I’m crying too

[@NateCerwinske]

Let’s go Hamp 🎉🤞🏽

[@thumpin250]

The music selection really makes the video.

[@SirJohnLift]

Superb documentary, really beautifully done

[@EEWombat]

At the end of the day what you can control is how hard you are willing to work. Young Mr. Morris is certainly A model of hard work paying off, and of working his opponents into the ground. I look forward to seeing what he becomes!

[@671967]

I got goosebumps when he hit that record. Outstanding young man!!!!

[@mcculloughmethod6912]

Hampton and Olivia have defined a new generation of American weightlifting.

[@Jshaw44]

15:08 literally everything he just said about having a schedule that you stick to completely was me before i got hurt, it’s a drive of wanting to be the best and sacrificial things so you can do things you need to do to meet your goals

[@ZeroEditsWeightlifitng]

Such a great family

[@mattday9201]

having your dad as your coach at the Olympic level is wild

[@matoelgud]

Great docu!

[@abbythe7035]

Hope he receives more attention and funding, a fan from China

[@ΧρήστοςΒασιλόπουλος-π2β]

All the best to him! He deserves it as an athlete and a person. But as truly blessed as he is physically an mentally he is also blessed in having in his corner one of the greatest, if not the greatest, weightlifters of all time: the 4 times Olympic Medalist Pyrros Dimas who is seen supporting and celebrating with Nate on all of competitions shown in this documentary. By the way it is beautifully shot - really enjoyed watching it

[@SwanDog318]

Great job 👏🏼🎉

[@kAppsIRL]

insane content🙌🏋🚬

[@rudehamster275]

OMG! I am SO much in love right now! What a stunning guy. ❤❤❤❤

[@spazz99ful]

Damn, when he got Pyrros in his corner, that boy is good to go.

[@dane-c7g]

What a lad!

[@gabirilax]

Does anybody know why Tyr does not sponsor Olivia Reeves as well? (Or if they do and I’m not aware?)

[@Karenshow]

I truly believe that weightlifting is for analytical minds.

[@xgamermudkip7154]

NEW DOPING EXCUSE JUST DROPPED 4:14 "spider tracked peds into my meals" 100% GUARANTEED TO PASS?!?!?

[@wolfhunter6711]

I am pretty sure he nor anyone else eats weightlifting chalk….

[@namjaiplenty]

But did he get the noodles!!?!?? And were they delicious?!

[@trippmorris690]

He loved them!

[@jhonnyola]

One minut ant then commercial break. Cmon KZbin, dont be gready.

[@robschilke]

HAMP!

[@ShatterTheSkiesAbove]

His hips are super high when he snatches.

[@samuelclemons508]
