Probably my most favorite lifter after I retired from competition, I wished I could have studied his technique when I was a novice from the 70s, for his age and size, there was no one better than Yuri 😊
Tnaks! Aaand most of my digitized videos about this event is blocked by IOC; also Frank Rothwell's videos... But the question is; what can you find about this event at IOC's youtube channel?
There is at least one more, Nico Vlad who did 200.5 snatch at 100 kg, but it's very rare to snatch 100+ above yes. Nico is the only guy over 95 kg who snatched double BW iirc.
btw zakharevich got a severe elbow injury 5 years before this olympic event, in 1983, doctors told him he's never gonna lift anything again. pure sportsman
How does he do that. There's people way bigger than him in the gym bearly deadlifting that weight for a triple and he just power cleaned it and jerked it with no struggle. Most people say its the roids but thats not acheivable with or without roids. Its just genetics. Maybe he would be only 10% weaker if he was natural.
how the fuck are you comparing the casual gymbro's routine to that of an olympic athlete? One is training for size the other is training for strentgth.
Zakharevich made a mistake. He had to try 247,5 at second c&j so that he could get 6 W.R. He could do that and then try 251 at 3rd or 4th attempt. He wasted his second attempt and gambled with 251. Anyway a great man.
Because he started at 245. If he choose 247,5 that would be his last lift. There where a rule that u vad to increase minimum 5 kilo from first to second attempt
One of the greatest ever.The man outlifted lifters in the super heavies.
Ikr
Greatest 100-110 lifter of all time! Greatest snatcher of all time, regardless of weightclass.
110kg Class….He is the God of weightlifting..

The unbeatable Zakharevitch... In the Good old days..
Amazing! He snatched 100kg above his bodyweight, I think it's unique among this weight category!

@@barath4545 can you send me the video ?
@@barath4545 Yury actually did 200 at 100 as well.
САМЫЙ СИЛЬНЫЙ В РЫВКЕ ЭТО БЛАГОЙ БЛАГОЕВ.
this guy must be the god of not heavy weight category, 210 snatch and 245 C&J is amazing
Советская школа.
Don't forget, he was 17 years old and held all records for his age at mid- heavy (90) kilo class and then 100 kilo class and heavyweight 😅
Wow!!
This will be insane even by year 2100 standards
Bruh Weightlifting is going backwards
Soviet machine....amazing lifter..💪💪

@@rqd3 both go hand in hand
genetic strength of joints/tendons. his parents were very strong people too
10% is 20 kilos....
While these are world class clean and jerks, he did not power any of those cleans. I don't think a 240 kg plus power exists on video.
Muito forte meus parabéns

Good

5 kilo minimum from successful 1st attempt rule prior to may 1989? So not valid
@@ozwunder69 ????? This was 1988
