Pisarenko, the Giga Chad of the weightlifting world!

[@JFMark]

Definitely No bro the Goat was Vasily Alexeyev , Pisarenko never lifted in the Olympics.

[@09thespecialone]

When super heavyweights actually looked like real athletes.

[@csabaveres3230]

The Golden Age of weightlifting. When hysterics was confined to the tennis court and football field. These guys just got the job done.

[@miklkiton8639]

Great athletes!!
The then weightlifting competition looked as exciting as the football World Cup!

[@philipchesley9615]

Thanks for this!!!

[@418cjpaul]

thanks for posting!

[@antonzakharov8038]

It's impressive to see their last attempts in Clean and Jerk. They managed to clean well but they both missed jerk. Kurlovich cleaned a bit easier than Pisarenko did. Kurlovich's jerk seems to have been nearer to success than Pisarenko's. Pisarenko failed the third jerk because of his legs whereas Kurlovich had problems with his arms in his third jerk.

[@Tfukijaki]

dude almost jerked that 262kg in 1983, while being ~50kg lighter than lasha talakhadze, WTF? both these guys are around 125kg bodyweight. pound per pound they are stronger than talakhadze

[@Lotus1001]

Yeah unbelievable

[@FFMM7]

Talakhadze is much more fatter and taller.This is the reason.

[@bigmcdick4916]

He then did 265 in 1984 with ease and Lasha broke that in 2017 with 267. Pisarenko said he was prepared to hit 280 and I believe him the 265 was so easy

[@philipchesley9615]

Yep

[@lordmegatron6145]

i tell even crazier than this listen to me.. he jerked 266 and snatch 215 at 125 kg bodyweight :).. lasha 186 kg best lifts 225/270 your choice..

[@bazovoy]

три сильнейших на то время атлета.. Писаренко, Курлович и Тараненко

[@василийпетрович-б5щ]

Гуняшев...болгарин крастев

[@bazovoy]

безусловно, если продолжить, то не одни они, я по 3ку.. на мой вщгляд конечно... @@василийпетрович-б5щ

[@bazovoy]

@@василийпетрович-б5щ да

[@kirilganchev4895]

Pisarenko snatched 206 in his 3rd attempt. He looked stronger than Kurlovich, but Kurlovich's snatch and clean were impressive.

[@ЕвгенийЯковлев-й7д]

Писаренко-ТАЛАНТ

[@iliakoriavov3026]

Талант его в трудолюбии и целеустремленности в первую очередь.

[@LyricTenor85]

Very evenly matched athletes here. Hard to say, maybe Kurlovich just a hair stronger on this day.

[@captainamericaamerica8090]

Post more please

[@ironanvil2375]

These monsters should have both exploited their full potential by putting on more weight. 155-160kg and they would have set the "forever world records". They both clean and jerked 265, 266kg. Lasha Talakadze does 267 and weighs 55kg more.

[@Gorboduc]

Did Kurlovich pass out at 3:20?!?

[@billwhite9703]

Yes.

[@НиколайАсеев-д2х]

Курлович готов лучше, чувствуется потенциал спортсмена - упражнение выполняет чисто, без явного напряга. Писаренко готов хуже, его корёжит после каждой попытки. Еле-еле толкнув 245 кг пошёл на заведомо провальные 260, видимо понимая, что только загнав на запредельные веса молодого и более сильного Курловича можно обыграть его тактически за счет более легкого веса.

[@isaacpiper510]

Isn’t the first snatch 205?

[@dcobianc]

Pisarenko was a beautiful Daddy!!!!!

[@diddlysquat88]

Stop the gay stuff. This is a sport of men, not sissys!!

[@weightkiller3976]

245 - 261?)

[@АртурАбаноков-ж6к]

Говорят Курлович и Писаренко разнесли сборную 🇺🇸 по каратэ переломали им кости и разнесли ресторан где они ужинали спокойно💪💪💪💪💪

[@alekss5362]

Писаренко крут, вот так выглядит настоящий украинец
