Hampton is such a phenomenal lifter. And seeing how Hampton and his coaches were celebrating was amazing. To be 19 years-old and setting records is incredible.
he is 20 now but yes
Idk if it’s his coach or not but that guy has to be 100 percent his dad. No denying that hug.
It’s a youth record, so that makes sense!
@@MarMaxGamingHe set the Senior World Record. That’s what the announcers just said. He set both World Records (Youth and Senior) with his final lift. But hey, who am I to correct you with facts? Maybe you didn’t watch the full video.
But don’t mind me. I just might be the idiot my wife has claimed that I am for the last thirty years.
@@brokl26 that’s definitely my bad, you’re not the idiot at least in this context haha I missed it.. that’s unbelievable, these world records are so incredibly hard to get…
Senior, as in old people? Did they say that by mistake? Because it doesn’t make any sense for a 19 year old to hold a senior record, I think you have to be over 50-60 years old?
The thing that confuses me is he got a WR, yet he is ranked 5th in the world…
The guy who is always hugging and kissing him like a father is Pyrros Dimas who is a LEGEND of the sport and is the technical advisor in USA team last 7-8 years and that’s why you see a bloom in that sport. His knowledge is beyond comprehension and USA athletes are lucky to have him in their corner
Congratulations Hampton. I thought I would never see a men's world record from the USA.
The clean on the 172 attempt was UNREAL - amazing lifting from this dude.
The first time I saw Hampton Morris I thought "Huh. Jacked Pee Wee Herman". There have been no jokes rising in my head since that first time because this kid is freaking legit. This blows my mind, and I love seeing it. Can't wait to watch him as time goes on. Btw- there's a great docu about him called Hamp the Champ on UA-cam that give great insight into his life, mentality, and training. Worth a look, imho.
Shoutout Nate Cerwinske
The first time I saw Hampton Morris was when I saw a vid of an unknown (to me) 56 kg kid back squatting 290 lbs for 10 reps! I thought it was fake on UA-cam. It was 2018 and I had no idea who he was. I found out pretty quickly.
Correction Only 5 reps. I misremembered. It’s still overwhelming.
Correction. 5 reps. I misremembered still phenomenal. Knocked me for a loop.
@@landenxOath. Nate is a champ too for making that doco
Wow... I got chills watching his lift...I was 13 when Joe Dube set his world record in 1968....hope this young man keeps progressing.....looking forward to watching more of his lifting.....
You were born the same year Albert Einstein died.
Welcome back Albert
On Hampton’s IG story is video of him cleanly snatching 134 kg. in the training hall. So there’s more in the tank. He’s also C&J around 180 kg. in training.
Wow. Thanks for providing this video of this phenomenal event. Breathtaking.
Unbelievable! 55 years! Congratulations!!!
Am not surprised.
Anyone that has seen that great documentary on him by Nate Cerwinske knows the guys does everything in his control to perform, and already did massive PR's / unofficial WR training
How did I miss this huge talent. What a great American lifter. WOW. Congrats. 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
Seeing this pop up in my feed on the 4th of July is pretty inspiring. Amazing lift! I can't wait to see what he does in future competitions.
I'd seen Morris lift in other competitions and thought he was good, that he had potential, but I never figured that he'd set a world record. Good for him, and I hope he continues breaking records.
Amazing! I've been watching him for a couple years. So happy for him and his team. Great for US lifting as well. Let go!!
What an absolute beast. Congrats big dawg Hampton!
I love his enthusiasm.. So much spirit and passion
Amazing lift. Thanks for the great coverage as always
Congratulations Hampton Morris!!! Wow just WOW!!!
what a beast! awesome job hampton!
Phenomenal lifting from Hampton, I live in the same city as him I need to swing by one of his training sessions
Gotta find the Crunch Fitness he lifts at 😂
@@jeffersonye7572 basically got the only American world record holder in the last 50 years training at Crunch fitness. He should be training at the Olympic Training Center or something
Doesn't he train in his home gym? You're gonna stop by his house lol?
@@turkishdelight6032 I’ve seen him train at 2 gyms outside of his house crunch fitness and Allsouth Barbell around ATL
Could you also go with him in a shower?
Newcomer to these videos, but I'm so glad that I got to see this.
At 62 years old, I'm just starting to lift heavy. I can appreciate this sooo much. 🏋🏼♂️👍
Fantastic job young man, Congrats.
Fantastic lifting from Hampton, been a long time coming! 💪
It's hard not to cheer for him, just outstanding discipline and execution. Amazing lift.
What a boss, amazing work!
I knew it! Congratulations, Hampton Morris. You are a true champion. Now, on to Paris!
Holy crap USA has a contender!!!
Unbelievable! Way to go kiddo! Excellent lift! Oh boy that's gonna be hard to beat in his weight class.
What an absolute dog. I knew he had it to compete at this level but to see a world record shocked me. So freakin excited. Congrats Hampton, lets go USA!!!
hopefully he stays 19 for 3 more years like karlos nasar.
🤣🤣🤣
Absolutely huge! The commentary really added to this WR. You can't help rooting for Hamp.
No real clue what I'm watching but it made me super happy for him and the US!
Amazing lifter!
Michael Martin comes to mind. 16 year old lifter clean and jerked 175 at 77 kg. I believe that was 99 or 00
Wow I really enjoyed watching this young man do so well in the clean and jerk. So many weightlifters in this comp have bombed out missing their chance to complete in the Olympics in Paris .
This cleans his first lift with amazing power , then a slight elbow wabble lost him the lift ,which he stabilised beautify. To return to the platform with suitable lockout for the next much heavier lifts ,What ! and not to mention a 61kg man lifting 176 kgs above his head, with ease Wow . I would like to see Lasha do that ( and don't get me wrong Lasha is my favourite weightlifter)
I am educating my self to consider the smaller men which I was once myself.
Wow what a lift!! All I saw was American world record and weightlifting and stopped everything to check it out. I already was thinking don’t the Chinese have the WR? Now it’s Hampton and the USA!! Excellent stuff 🤘🏽
Gentle, polite applause. I'd be on my feet screaming and yelling...and I'm 77 (okay, only for a short while, but still....).
Congratulations Hampton Morris! Amazing lifts and performance at only 19. Clean looks soooo strong.
I met him a couple of weeks ago. I hope he sets a new Olympic Record.
Absolutely amazing performance by our boy Hampton! #kickoutthepressout
Wow. Immense strength. 😮😮😮😮
What a monster that young man is. "Hampton the champion" is coming someday soon....
only 19 too...he's got a amazing future ahead of him if he continues with the sport.
What an incredible achievement. God bless him
Ah yes thank you for actually covering the best performances and meaningful stories of the day today
GOOD LUCK IN PARIS, HAMPSTER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!💪🏼💪🏼
I find it crazy that his feet and straight forward. Very impressive lift
Congratulations！🎉🎉🎉
Good video. Thanks.
It's really great. There are also many people in China who like your smile. Keep it up
His legs in the knee area look absolutely wild.
Wow mad RESPECT young man!! 🎉🎉🎉
"Phuket, YOLO". - Hampton.
You can tell that's dad just by the hug!
Oh my God..what a lift.
Outstanding!!
He actually set THREE world records with TWO lifts. One Junior WR in the C&J and then both a Junior AND Senior WR in the C&J! Holy Cow!!
According to "Weightlifting - Progression of World records", Bob Bednarski was the last USA lifter to set a WR (he actually set two World Records in 1969. One in the press and one in the C&J). Joe Dube set two World Records in the press in 1968.
Un campeon simpatico con un futuro brillante
What is impressive is those lifts look a bit raw still. As he gets more experience and some more mature muscle he is bound to take down a few more records. Impressive.
Congrats!!! Awesome!
Pyross dimas is working good ❤
If you haven't seen Nate Cerwinske's short film on UA-cam about Hampton Morris called Hamp the Champ, then you should.
Hard work is hard work, good job
Marietta, GA stand up!!
This video nicely encapsulates what is great and awful about oly lifting- the "press out" no lift at the start is beyond stupid, but the record setting lift is so impressive and amazing.
"The Kid has done it"
Great stuff
🥝🇳🇿
To do this at 19YO is INCREDIBLE
He turned 20 in February of this year. I know everyone is saying he is 19 so I figured we could start getting that set straight.
Awesome lift!😀
“Hampton Morris, Will Save Us All!!!”
Big congrats to the young man...well deserved...hats off.👍👍👍💪👀🥇
heck ya thats huge! no fear pure power!
congrats bro!
When I was 28, I did 375. Did I mention that I was over 100 pounds heavier than him? He is 135 pounds and I was 250. He is amazing.
Congratulations Hampton and USA! greetings from Georgia
Amazing! ❤
That is just ridiculous. Amazing lift... Congratulations man - well deserved.
An American world record? Extraordinary
176 kg = 388 lbs. Holy crap!!! The big guy's is 267 kg = 588.6 lbs. He's on 61 kg class, meaning he cant weigh over 134.5 lbs, Holy Crap!! So he lifted at least 2.88 times his own weight (depending on what he actually weighs).
Been following him for years I knew he was gonna be a monster
Ever since watching the hamp the champ mini documentary by Nate on UA-cam, he’s been one of my favourites
Crazy how he out lifted Fabin by 10kgs and still lost by almost 10 in the total
He didn't "out lift" fabin lol. He already won so he didn't bother
User you are correct Fabin out totaled Hamp but don’t say Fabin didn’t “bother” Fabin tried and failed with 173 to increase his total world record. Fabin is still the better lifter because of his superhuman snatch but if he is off his snatches in Paris Hamp could make it very interesting.
Been watching him on instagram for years in his basement.. so proud to watch him execute like that. Congratulations Hampton!
Incredible
can you atleast post the name of the event?
Congratulations!🤯💪
Incredible lift!!
how the hell did he do that at 134lbs?!?
Amazing.
I remember seeing videos of this kid when he was super skinny taking that wide open mouth brace and thinking how goofy he looked. Nothing goofy about this kid’s strength! 🤯
I remember seeing him lift at 14yo skinny kid then and now super strong
He has legs like a horse lol lets go 💪✌🇺🇸 and only 19?! Congrats man that was beautiful
When we will get the full vídeo in UA-cam?
Incredible good luck in Paris
He is/was 20 not 19. This was in April 2024, he turned 20 on February 2024.
Hampton looks his age, 19, whereas Carlos Nassar, who is said to be 19, looks 35.
He’s 20. Still pretty young!
Yeah one guy is just on a HIGHER dose of peds…
Absolutely unreal. That's nearly 3x body weight!
1:34 that clean was insane lmao
The sullamanov from Bulgaria lifted I think 192 kg!
amazing hardwork paid off kudos
Before today I was hoping for a medal in Paris. Now I’m expecting one. Don’t be teasing me Hamp.
4.56 Was Pyrros Dimas ?
