Such a perfect name for a weightlifter of that size who looks like that, lifts that heavy, has that technique and has that demeanor. Everything single thing about him I can look at and say yeah, Gor is the correct name.
From my point of view he just missed his lockout point at the top of the movement, going back a bit too far and then getting thrown too far forward to stop it, had to bail. Lasha at 100% would have been able to control it and complete the snatch. I think he did pretty much the same thing with his 225 world record. On that lift you can see him go up so strong he gets out of the groove, but he’s able to stabilize it and complete the snatch. Which is an utterly astounding feat of strength and balance. But Lasha now, at less than 100%, couldn’t do it. In my opinion, Lasha has such unreal power going up with the snatch, that he almost generates more power than is safe for stability. But when he’s completely healthy he can handle it and stabilize the movement.
Glückwunsch an den Olympiasieger König Lasha, aber auch an die beiden Armenier Lalayan und Minasian ui ihren Silber- und Bronzemedaillen! Respekt! 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
I don't understand why this video has a 2x as many downvotes than upvotes? Did I miss anything? E: 16 hours later and over 200 downvotes have been removed.
Lasha could have got reds to that 255 but I also have say that looking at it in the very basic sense he did lift that 255 above his head. Lalayan and Gor didn't. I find the jury's work atrocious. They've been ruining competitions for years now.
watching that live was amazing, but it didn't hit just how legendary that was until after rewatching a few times. Lasha is the GOAT but i feel for Gor, i think he's got a gold coming sometime soon
Big guys in the 3rd millennium, in 2024, they are trying to push 255 kg, the weight that Vasily Alekseev pushed in the mid-70s of the last century (!) and which is 10 kg less than what Anatoly Pisarenko pushed in the early 80s of the last century. And unsuccessfully. Why is this so? )) Where are the progress?
Agreed that Lasha's 255 looked iffy by the absolute clownshoes judging standards of this Olympics. Glad they didn't have to send it to the jury of other clowns.
It did, but OTOH, noone else of the big 3 jerked the weight. Lasha PROBABLY had a litttttttle pressout and was really struggling with standing still after getting the weight up there and that down signal saved his ass. So in that regard I feel like Lasha still earned it the most of the supers in CJ - So I don't feel they gave it to him, he earned it the most.
I got the impression that Tank had decided from previous sessions at the olympics, and even himself at the World Cup, that he just wanted to get a total on the board and not bomb out with that 200 opener. Super conservative but ultimately he knows he isn't getting a medal and nothing destroys someone like Tank's vibes more than bombing out
Lesman had Colombian coaches with him to Bahrain, they were shouting cues to him in Colombian Spanish, which makes sense - would be a massive undertaking switching to new coaches in a foreign language when switching federations. Bahrain has the money to get Armenian and Colombian coaches so the athletes feel more at ease and not have to learn Bahrani Arabic instantly lol
That’s the kinda American shit that pisses me off anytime I’m on the train in New York on Long Island or in manhattan. Mostly Long Island since there will actually be some open seats.
Пока Лаша объективно сильнее своих конкурентов и победил он вполне заслуженно если бы ему не засчитали победный вес было бы несправедливо потому что он всё-таки поднял над головой конкуренты были далеки от этого что-то мне кажется что до лос-анджелеса ему не хватит здоровья видно как ему тяжело с таким весом собственным а сбрасывать вес нельзя сразу силы покинут сила напрямую зависит от веса
The Russians use to dominate this competition, i even remember seeing one guy lift more weights with one arm, than these men lift with two. But now it's a whole different culture with the Chinese obsessed with every little detail. 💪💪💪💪
послушаите, если хоть кто то понимает в тяжелои атлетике. вот почему защитали подход талахадзе на 255 кг. он же не заыиксировал вес, он все время двигался и так и бросил вес не стоя ни на секунду на месте. вобщем опять украли у армян золотую медаль….
This is the best Olympic coverage I've seen.
Gor probably has the most impressive yeet in weightlifting history, borderline powered those snatches.
Based on how high his voice went at 1:17, I think he agrees 😂
the way he just yoinks the bar off the ground
Thank you ! Ive been looking for the lifts. Here we are !!! 👏
Even though all rhe heaviest attempts got missed, this has to be the heaviest and closest snatch session ever.
Это класс
Lads, you are single handedly carrying weightlifting on your back. You guys should be both made joint heads of the IWF.
If two internet bloggers carry an entire sport then it's not much of a sport is it?
Imagine having a name like Gor. That's so fucking metal

Old Armenian name, means fierce.

Silver also is metal
Lasha's miss of 220 was some crazy fluke, he was more than capable to lift it.
yeah he made 215 more easily than any of his training attempts leading up to this olympics
Yeah that 215 looked ridiculous. I thought he was good for 225ish. I was very surprised he missed that 220.

@@billkenney2855 If he had 1 more attempt, he'd have lifted it. I think he did it in training recently.
He missed on purpose to give the other guys a fighting chance.

Quick comment before this gets struck down. You’re doing great work lads 💪
crazy to have multiple guys open at 210 these days
Los Angeles Olympics 2028 Has The Best Chance To Be So Gooood After Seeing How Controversial These Years Olympics Were.
American Olympics are almost always a disaster. Let's hope this one bucks the trend.
Super Heavy’s are the most prestigious and more entertaining, just because it shows the limits of human capabilities
Is the video being disliked by bots or is my extension broken? ty for the upload! was looking for this footage
try refreshing, it went to 3 dislike from ~700, i was also surprised. Seems like that the plugin is not reliable at all.
Sika super shit talk (bc its about the superheavies and both of the lads are north of 120 kilos)
Lasha could have got reds to that 255 but I also have say that looking at it in the very basic sense he did lift that 255 above his head. Lalayan and Gor didn't. I find the jury's work atrocious. They've been ruining competitions for years now.
Спасибо!

lasha retiring soon?

And unsuccessfully.
Why is this so? ))
Where are the progress?
Hey guys! Do you think we'll see healthier athletes in LA given they wont need to squeeze a quads worth of programming into 3 years?
How does the height of Lasha v Gor make a difference. Greater leverage v higher lift etc.
Agreed that Lasha's 255 looked iffy by the absolute clownshoes judging standards of this Olympics. Glad they didn't have to send it to the jury of other clowns.

Asanidze said in an interview, they are going for 500 after the Olympics
according to man assad on his insta he was injured, wonder how well he would have done if he wasnt
What was up with them taping up the adidas stripes on sides of their suits during this event?
They only allow one brand logo to be visible on an athlete
wow seems like they are catching up to Lasha
More like lasha can't keep up with his past self
Lesman had Colombian coaches with him to Bahrain, they were shouting cues to him in Colombian Spanish, which makes sense - would be a massive undertaking switching to new coaches in a foreign language when switching federations. Bahrain has the money to get Armenian and Colombian coaches so the athletes feel more at ease and not have to learn Bahrani Arabic instantly lol
Why is this footage so hard to find?
Because NBC has paid for the rights to stream it and they want you to pay for peacock.
@@MickyRichards ohhh. Thank you.
The night crew from Wafflehouse could easily officiate these competitions at a high level.
Лаша мало сказать чемпион геракл
Lasha will probably go for 500 before LA Olympics and just go for 4th Olympic gold in LA
220kg is liggghttt weigghhtttt babbbbay
2:58 ay-may-zing
Wow, Gor shatched more than Lasha.
Less commentary more focus on the lifting
not so far from 89 class
I the was heavenly angel appearing on it- to be cursed!
Only 4:43 seconds of actual weight lifting, the rest is all talk.
That’s the kinda American shit that pisses me off anytime I’m on the train in New York on Long Island or in manhattan. Mostly Long Island since there will actually be some open seats.

Талахадзе распустил себя совсем,пузень болтается и мешает конкретно 😢😢😢
The Russians use to dominate this competition, i even remember seeing one guy lift more weights with one arm, than these men lift with two. But now it's a whole different culture with the Chinese obsessed with every little detail. 💪💪💪💪
We'll never see the 500 total. Oh well.
Not sport related. But wear a seat belt, please
послушаите, если хоть кто то понимает в тяжелои атлетике. вот почему защитали подход талахадзе на 255 кг. он же не заыиксировал вес, он все время двигался и так и бросил вес не стоя ни на секунду на месте. вобщем опять украли у армян золотую медаль….
Lalayan and Minasyan..... ARMENIAN POWER
