    Do not get me wrong but in my opinion this guy is one of the most underrated athletes in history. His achievements and performances are beyond imagination. Is this video you can see recorded the most superhuman lift ever performed. He lifts x3.17 his bodyweight something that nobody has ever done or will ever do. He broke every record in featherweight since the age of 16 and would be the most decorated weightlifter if not for the Soviet Union boycott in 1984. Official records are now reset and featherweight category stands for athletes of 56kg and "lightweight" for 62kg. C&J world records are reported as 170kg and 177kg accordingly in 2016. He still smokes all those guys for over 10kg!
    I am grateful for having the opportunity to see these tremendous efforts. Pushing yourself forward and achieving greatness has been taken to another level since this beast set foot in the Olympic stage.

      It's easier if your shorter to lift higher than your own bodyweight. If a guy weighs 80 kg and is 7'8, then this guy would only exist of bones whereas a 4'1 guy weighing 80 kg would exist mostly of muscle, who will be able to lift more than their own boy weight? The 4'1 guy. If Naim was 5'7 or 6'8 he wouldn't accomplish this

      @@obuty_napiwek2454 Shorter people are still able to lift higher than their bodyweight because they have more muscle to weight ratio and don't lie muscle produces power this is why eddi hall has a lot of muscle too. He weighs 64 kg even though hes only 4'8 of muscle now if a 8'11 guy would weigh 64 kg he would have no muscle mass and be extremly skinny and not able to lift 332 kg because most of his weight is bone and muscle is the one generating Power.
      Shorter people have higher muscle (Strenght because muscle does generate power dont tell me otherwise) to weight ratio which makes pull ups easier and it's easier to lift more than your own weight (Like gorillas)

      idk... he is deff strong dont get me wrong. but u gotta realize that clean and jerk is WAY easier if ur short. in hs i could do about 2x my body weight(300 lbs at 150-155 lbs in weight) and by no means trained for it.... its super easy when ur short( im 5'10) ive seen a 140 lb 5'5 guy who was weaker than me on everything clean 335.... not press it but still. u dont have as much room to move the bar. if a tall person was cleaning and pressing 3x his own weight.... then it would be more impressive? idk at least more appreciated by others.

    Used to hear about this guy when I was 10 in the late 1980s but was too young to understand how much of a legendary weightlifter he was. For some reason I never forgot his name and the following formula stuck in my mind: weightlifting = Suleymanoglu. Now I understand why. Just learned about his death. RIP Naim. You are clearly the greatest ever.

Naim liften 190kg at 60kg kategories. his records are unbeatable since 1988 and I dont believe that none else can beat by lifting more than 3 times his own weight.
