Naim's Daughter was a big hit in Turkey. Everybody was against digging a grave just because someone said that they are daughter of a rich and succesful man. But she was right so everyone was shocked when we heard the news.
Another layer to the Salimi controversy is that one of the judges/referees was an Iraqi and this has frequently been mentioned by Iran as the reason he got red lighted. Still love how Lasha taunts the Iranian crowd before his final lift lmao.
Regarding the Akkaev ak47 video. Judging by the cars, bmw donuts and dress shirt he was wearing I am certain it was a wedding. Slavic nations have a custom of shooting guns at weddings, some even detonate hand grenades. Depends what grandpa saved from the war.
Caucasus actually, specifically in the North Caucasus from Kabardino Balkaria. There are no slavs (native) from the Caucasus, and guns at weddings are generally rarer across the Russian nation aside from the aformentioned North Caucasus republics and peoples who are inside the Federation - that is where almost all the videos you see online come from. A lot of weaponry is either spillover from recent wars, smuggled in from other neighboring regions, or "traumatic pistols/guns" which are legal firearms to carry that shoot less-than-lethal projectiles - but are sometimes modified to function as real firearms that shoot live ammo.
I don't think I would call him a celebrity on the level of their star track athletes/swimmers and other athletes. He's in some ads and maybe semi-known? Probably 90% of China doesn't even know what weightlifting is. There is no culture of drug use/acceptance in China either (among its citizenry, not in sports) so I'm sure he will lose sponsorships unless he's somehow vindicated in a later test. Lu in China is not a situation like say Nurudinov in Uzbekistan where he was a household name, recognized on the streets, got popped, and is still a beloved celebrity.
Kolecki did 235 kg C&J @ 94 kg bodyweight and 18 years old at Polish nationals in may 2000. Pity he injured himself. His height and long limbs forced him to deep, big split in jerk, looked phenomenal and athletic.
the behind the scenes 270kg C&J must have at least one pair of fake plates on it right? even if it were possible they wouldn't do such a risky thing in a situation where they might need several takes, right?
Everyone is juicing. There is no point in shaming individuals. Dont hate the player, hate the game. Saying this to the new poeple coming to strength sports.
@@BarakGage Pencil neck naturals hate fake natties. Gear users for the most part just think they're clowns and ignore them. Every single top athlete in every sport is a fake natural too, and their earnings come from beating others with same advantages, so it's very much a different thing. Fake nattying is disgusting only because it's basically centered around scamming people.
Some other good ones: ilya ilyin breakdancing, karlos nasar getting caught with meth in the car and needing to go to prison after 2024(?), lu xiaojun possibly faking a back injury at worlds 2019, rezazadeh clean and jerking 265 in an iranian comp, sonny webster popping for ostarine, frank rothwell, klokov 200 pause snatch
Laurel Hubbard drunk driving. And if not too touchy a subject for RUclips the whole Colin Burns investigation and subsequent lifting of his ban under what I’d consider to be pretty weird circumstances. Could also talk about the doping ban buff some athletes get when they get banned for doping, come back “clean”, and do better than they did before.
@@toximan2008 Was accused of raping a female athlete (cant remember her name, trained out of Yasha Khans gym, she in the HG video where Ilya and Vasiliy Polovnikov are training at Yashas) while she was passed out at a Pan Ams, as it was international she couldn't press charges, he was banned through some organization (fairsport or something like that) and Juggernaut dropped him, there was some weird shit about Ursula Garcia (who was high up in USAW at the time) defending him but i cant remember the details.
Weightlifting lore goes so much deeper than this but unfortunately there is very little veritable proof of anything beyond what you brought up. I can thing of a bunch of outrageous things I’ve heard from guys who have trained at high level gyms here in the states. But unfortunately a video on this would earn you a visit from a mash elite hit squad 🤫
@@magicjohnsins I cannot find it for the life of me. It was on a podcast with Gabriel Sincraian, Max Aita, Seb and Telander. It is no longer in RUclips and I am pretty sure Sika boys have talked about it as well.
@@jacob_7567 Yeah it was Shahin, was told to fake an injury or they would pop the whole Iranian squad, seems very believable if you watch the injury. He has had some SA allegations, doesn't look like he still around at Alex Lees gym much anymore.
So did Mariana Naumova disappeared?! The Salimi cartoon was hilarious! :D The doping control's a joke, it can't work even in principal, and me and you know it. But other youtubers seem to think otherwise...
@@slowfuse simple breakdown: it’s got a volume phase, a strength phase, and a peaking phase that collectively take ~10 weeks? Volume phase is what I’m in and it’s great practice for form, learning some new movements, and getting me bigger muscles so I have higher capacity to increase strength. It’s only 20 bucks or so and comes from a world class athlete. Clarence is a no bullshit guy. He isn’t trying to sell you supps or tell the world he is natty. Just a humble, honest, athlete. Definitely recommend

That one guy in Ireland who started tricking and self-taught himself weightlifting. he ended up snatching 190+ and CJing like 230.
who was that? didnt he trained in like a church basement or something?
@@ingelheim2195 pretty sure he only eats plants too, must be a different species
Clarence from silence of the lambs
@@onemanswrld405 Or juices his balls off, most likely.
(It's Clarence).
Would be epic to see Clarence travel to Greece and train with the Bloatlord himself
hes not the chosen one. not yet
Clarence seems like he's not but he's totally cool rolling with crazy lifters and big personalitiez

Clarence back with the bi-monthly uploads has made my day
Is it because he makes me bi?
i wish my DnD campaign had a lifting merchant . like greetings weary traveller dost thou want to purchase this here C4 stimulant compound elixir?
I’m a member of his Patreon and he’s been busy with moving and marriage.
Now we just need Otis back on his bi annual uploads and all will be well in the RUclips fitness world
snatching 140kg at 5 years old killed me LOL
I feel like i just lifted up and peered under a dusty rusty 45lb plate in the darkest corner of the gym
Boady's drunk driving incident is a good Level 1-2 story.
lol
Holy shit this is new to me
Yeah that dude should be in jail. He seems pretty shameless about it too.
Naim having a secret japanese daughter is like something out of JoJo's LOL
Joseph Joestar of weightlifting
They should check Naims Shoulder for a birthmark
Question is will the daughter get a stand or a mecha
Naim's Daughter was a big hit in Turkey. Everybody was against digging a grave just because someone said that they are daughter of a rich and succesful man. But she was right so everyone was shocked when we heard the news.
I almost forgot about the dancing weightlifter. He was so popular in the early 2010s amongst weightlifting fans too.
Dude didn’t Clarence train with him some years ago?
I played league of legends with him.
what is the name of his channel?
@@inversionallegoricaldan5297 kyle harrington... praying he comes back some day 😭😭

Salimi's cartoon is unironically hilarious
I still think sometimes how crazy it was when I was just out for a walk in Botanic Gardens and you passed me cycling on a city bike a few years back.

Its kinda crazy seeing a world class level athlete post an iceberg video
I love how there is creepy music playing even though nothing in this video was scary 😂
long clarence videos are simply the best
Agreed, 20 mins pure content with no filler 😍
I read the title as “Clarence0 iceberg” and I was hooked
would love to see more obscure, underground stories and lore from you. well done sir.
This was a very interesting video! I'm not into olympic weightlifting, but this something else! Thank you, Clarence! Very cool.
Great video and a welcome addition to your regular content
I miss the average bros gym days. Those guys showed great potential. Shoutout to Rob Adell.
Yea definitely some cool videos but a lot of them got popped. They have some youth that show promise tho
TIME TO RACK ITTTTTTTT even clarence has a video of himself squatting 200kg or 210kg x 11 reps and replicates the legendary Pat Mendez hahahahahaha
Excellent I've always been interested in the lore behind weightlifting
I think Naim’s escape from bulgarian team to Turkey should also be included. But that might be kind of out of context as well.
would love to see you talk more about naim, great video
This is amazing content! Please keep sharing 😊
Love these kinds of videos!
I haven’t left my computer since the last Clarence video. Waiting for this
Level 8: Clarence Deadlifts 340kg... IN WEIGHTLIFTING SHOES.
Level 8 Clarence is the love child of Grizzly and Genghis Khan
Amazing video Clarence. Thank you for this 😂😊
WE NEEDED THIS
Can’t help but love Cathy’s smile at 10:22
@8:50 where it couldn't look anymore American... hahaha had me laughing and spot on the money 😆😅🤣
I too look at weightlifting and ask myself, "how can we make this more like powerlifting?"
nice video clarence, thank you
How about Santavy's hit and run
I still can't believe Lu, LU of all people got popped, especially since he's a celebrity in china

Are you ever gonna release merch?
Nice ! can't wait till the next one
Good stuff
Great vid! Keep it doing!
can't believe Clarence knows about Kyle Harrington, absolutely based.
He trained with him in Canada idk why he makes it out like he doesn’t know where he is or what he’s up to lol
Weightlifting stories are wild man
I love the choice of spooky sound effects for this video.
Came out with the Giygas theme too
Godtier taste
Here's one for the iceberg. Boyanka Kostova literally just got out of prison in Bulgaria for drug dealing. Also, she's a band from Spain.
not sure if this exists, but what about a possible Shi Zhiyong heavy backsquat?
Hahaah The Iranian cartoon at the end was epic :) Great video all way through enjoyed that Clarence. clap clap.
We are blessed by another video of the GOAT Clarence 😍😍😍
Does Matthias Steiner's 2008 Olympic gold belong on the iceberg?
Thought for sure the manga "How Heavy are the Dumbbells You Lift?" Would be included
Kolecki did 235 kg C&J @ 94 kg bodyweight and 18 years old at Polish nationals in may 2000. Pity he injured himself. His height and long limbs forced him to deep, big split in jerk, looked phenomenal and athletic.
upload more often ur content is really good
Thank you Clarence!
Enjoyed this one, thanks
Bruh I was drinking water when he said 6:11 and I literally snorted my drink into my nose 😂
The man has blessed us with a video, praise be
2:38 young Clarence
what about the liao hui 220 kg jerk from rack at low 70s bodyweight?
This was interesting thanks for making it
What song is he using for the music in 1-2?
How can you make a sport documentary into a horror nighttime story 😂 i love it
One wacky story I can think of is Karlos Nasar's DUI
Wasn't he caught driving drunk with meth in his car?
good use of the oneshot OST with each deeper layer of the iceberg haha
Would love to hear an analysis of these stories from Clarence.
What music did you use?
Sneaky clarence thought we wouldnt notice you put the Freedom hardstyle track behind the footage of Grizzly
This footage really tell us all about weightlifting
Many thanks for video
the behind the scenes 270kg C&J must have at least one pair of fake plates on it right? even if it were possible they wouldn't do such a risky thing in a situation where they might need several takes, right?
It's 200% real
@@clarence0 probably but filmed on the moon
I’d love if you posted a link for the Bulgarian documentary
very dope video brah
Was gonna watch Elden Ring lore but i didnt know i needed weightlifting lore. Thank
11:50 Clarence didn’t u train with this guy a couple years ago?
Epic video Clarence
Everyone is juicing. There is no point in shaming individuals. Dont hate the player, hate the game. Saying this to the new poeple coming to strength sports.
Can we hate on the people that juice and claim natural or is that part of the game now too?

Also ilya ilyin 245 squat jerk and Vyacheslav Yarkin getting bullied by his brother/coach
Clarence I bought your pl program and must say it's quite amazing all lifts went up by a good margin
Absolutely loving it!

You made a very great niche video now make a powerlifting body building iceberg etc to take your channel to the next level
Love the edit 😂
The music in this whole thing 🥴
