Reminder that the German commentary said "He didn't do it for Germany. He didn't do it for Austria. He did it for her."
@@jotarokujo5132 u're an idiot
@@jotarokujo5132
How?
@@jotarokujo5132why are you so mad over this? You really think his wife wouldn’t have wanted him to win one of the highest awards for his sport?
@jotarokujo5132 you don't think she told him to fulfill his dream?

I could have lifted anything that day - Mattihias Steiner
Love conquers all
I forgot how much more this was then his previous max, but it wasn't a little.
@@joelwillems4081 I believe it was a solid 20kgs more.
Made me cry❤
Not a tiger 1
Forget that weight, how about the millions of hearts he lifted, including his own. His wife is extremely proud of her hubby. RIP to his loved one.
@@Kenlac92why u gotta be so negative bruh
@@curlyfries2956 he's just miserable and doesn't have anyone to love him the same way lol
@@Kenlac92lmao funny enough you know you liked your own comment. Whatever shithole that is making you that way, leaving it is always a choice.
Amen
@@Kenlac92 She would've been, not like you knew how that felt
“His wife pulled while he lifted”
Rest in peace to the love of his life❤
Stop it 😢😢😢 you made me cry...
DQ that's cheating
Idc what anyone says, these are the kinds of stories that make sports legendary.
Stories like this are why I love sports. I love seeing people dedicate themselves to being the best at their sport and overcome nearly unimaginable adversity to get there. Stories like this one are why I will continue to watch and participate in sports for my entire life.
Yeah 99% dont get this place even if they have similar situations.
@@tobiasfunke8967 Yeah that's true but that's sports only the best make it to the top. For me that's also part of the beauty of sports. There are honestly not a ton of things in life that are a pure meritocracy but sport is. Whoever is the fastest runner, strongest lifter, farthest thrower, etc. is the winner it's pure and simple. Where you come from, who your family is, or how much money you have are completely irrelevant because all that matters is your results and there's no shortcut to winning just a ton of practice and hard work over time.
I like beans.
@@tobiasfunke8967 That's irrelevant, sports at any level, from a local club of strangers or friends to the minor leagues. Sports is and can be the pinnacle of one achieving thier own greatness in life. Speaking from experience as a person who participates in indoor soccer and struggling on the field yet becoming a local team hero finding out I was better as a goal keeper.
Saw someone who drew some art of this moment where the ghost of his wife was there holding the bar up with him helping and it made me cry more than anything.
Aww that’s so sweet ❤
You didn't have to remind me because now i'm crying
I’m crying just reading that
That animation gets me every time. And the ending to plague dogs.
❤❤❤
We are witness to an act of sheer will and pure love. Actual goosebumps.
That picture meant more than that piece of gold ever will!!
❤❤❤❤😢😢😢
The fact that he wasn’t happy he got the title,
He was happy for the fulfillment of his promise
Ya❤️❤️😥😥
😢🥺😱😭💗💘💜💔❤🧡💛🤎🖤🤍
3.1k likes and only one comment let me fix that
Much greater motivation
Meh, I wouldn't say "he wasn't happy"
„There were four hands on the bar that day.“
So it was disqualified?
@@juha2031😂
lol@@juha2031
Like her wife could lift anything😂😂
@@juha2031nah way to ruin the moment 😭
How wonderful!!!
RIP Susann. 🩷
all my condolences for his wife this guy is just incredible
Crying for strangers is my passion 🥹🥇
If there was ever a comment that hit home,this was it lolol😢
I just hysterically laughed while crying. This comment really is the best comment on the internet.
😭😭😭🙌
Lmao you're lost 😂
Me too 😢
i'm not crying, you're crying
It just started pouring out😢.
I am. ❤
no not me, you
Nah u are. Idc enough to cry
@TheBigCheeseTP oh wow, big tough guy u are
I always get teary eyed watching this. The animated version hits just as heavy also. Our loved ones who are watching over us, definitely have a helping hand in many things.
I’m glad he won. Congratulations and condolences, from America.
I can't help crying whenever I see this because this is what a triumph looks like. Matias Steiner's wife Susann, died in a tragic car accident and 15 months later Matias lifted for her and won an Olympic Gold Medal in the Super Heavyweight Class.
Can't imagine what he've gone through
Mis respetos
And it was at the event that he met his now new wife :). His angel didn't want him to be alone.
@@michelleg.9934 I can almost imagine her spirit guiding them together...
@@michelleg.9934i wish i didn’t hate that
The gym where he trained was in my home town. I met him a couple of times as this is a rather small town near Heidelberg. He’s such a kind and humble and friendly person. He deserves this so much and I am very happy for him he was able to pull that off!
In Wiesloch?
@@zen-dung Close but no ;-). In Leimen.
Warum schreibst du idiot dann nicht deutsch
did he find someone else?
i am happy for him here as well tear fell down from my eyes and flow through my cheeks
he was not alone at the bar
The power of love and the promise kept. Respect warrior.
The pure joy and happiness in his face says it all😭
He pushed and did it for his wife, that’s absolutely wonderful ❤️ may she rest forever peacefully
@@jotarokujo5132who hurt u bro
Love the fans in Beijing cheering him on like he’s the protagonist
@@zacherys1223 who hit you on the head?
@@jotarokujo5132he just believes in the afterlife. And that's why there is such a thought process going on in his head
That's a lot of words just to show you wish you got this much attention lmao @@jotarokujo5132
I watched this live as a kid, it was the most beautiful moment in the olympic games, I've ever seen!
Derek Redmond finishing the race being helped by his Dad with an injury is pretty special too!
Wow I’ve seen this clip lots watching it live would’ve been great
I will never not cry watching this
I remember watching this as well, was really amazed by his effort , it was so moving .
Also the heaviest
All you need is love. Beautiful that he got to his fulfil his promise.
Tear jerker.
And I'm not one to cry😑. I definitely felt it in my chest. Beautiful.
Another amazing fact:
He needed to clean & jerk a weight 8kg ABOVE his personal best in order to win the gold medal and he did.
that's fucki** brutal
@@Alan-zy9kcwell that's a fresh way to censor lol
@@moupipicsi’m thinki** that as well
@@moupipics i just realized xd
She lifted those extra 8kg for him
My friend purposely ended his life a while back.
I still text him and let him know that im okay.
I know he wont answer, but I miss sharing my thoughts and achievements with him.
I miss that guy.
I hope your okay brother , head up
Or your crown will fall off king
Bro 😭
This is so sad, take care of yurself, thank you for sharing
June 23rd 2023 my friend did the same. Continue to love them, remember them, and also remember to take care of yourself.
The type of love so many people deserve fr ❤
There is nothing as cruel, unjust, and painful as missing a person in death.
Look at his eyes, few people know drive and passion like that.
We all cried and cheered. But she just smiled. Wherever she is. Because she always knew he could do it
She knew he just needed to believe in himself, because she always did. So she gave him one last push...
That hit hard. ❤❤❤
she wasnt smiling because shes dead
@@PitBullPlaysGames neither smile your parents because you were born
Heaven.
The strength you can achieve with your mind and heart are in the same place lovely jester
Love can do wonders, always appreciate your loved ones, love and be loved..🤍
He was not lifting for any medal that day. Because he already lost his gold.
Wow nice
😢❤
Beautiful ❤
This comment is also gold. Rembember Boys and Girls. Be happy with people around you. Time is ticking away and someday we all will be No more. Enjoy yourself ❤️
@@ponglo1070he, 'rembember' 😂Hahaha funny
This is the kind of strength people truly admire. Well done, your wife is proud, sir.
There's something incredibly satisfying seeing someone fulfill a promise to an angel of heaven. The feeling of accomplishment must be overwhelming.
Naruto once said, "we become strong and powerful because of our loved ones" Love truly gives us strength that we need.
Yup he did ❤
Love it when I go to the comments and see everyone else was crying too. Amazing how we all seem to emotionally connect to the same stories
The animation they did where his wife was there to help give him the lift is amazing too. It gets me bawling every time ❤
Where can I find that?
It always reminds me of that, and I immediately cry. It’s so beautiful and heart wrenching at the same time ❤
@@_Muser_ search for Matthias Steiner animation or something, it's pretty much everywhere
@@_Muser_"Matthias Steiner Animation" it is really heartbreaking, but wholsome
Cheating. His wife helped. Deduct points and strip his medal.
Why does this not have more likes? This is so heartfelt and so warming to see him fulfil his promise to his wife
you cannot skip this video forever ! one of the best story ! Goosebumps guaranteed
what a moment. no matter where you from, you wanted this guy to win. incredible.
The Greatest German Weightlifter of all time.
Who was actually austrian
@@chrisiwidi It is.
@@chrisiwidisame thing.
@@chrisiwidi
So was a famous austrian painter yet everybody thinks he was german
@@Ghost_Divison XD
I always shed a tear when I watch this
I've Never Seen A Foreigner Is As Loyal As Him❤❤❤😢😢 Hope Ur Love Long Live 🍀❤️
Saw it live and as a german, I knew his story. That was the first time in my life, that I started to cry for a sport event.
You didn't cry for sports, you cried for love, sacrifice and faith.
@@antoniomargallo5317 Nevertheless at a sport event
Feelings and emotion can push someone that little bit further than everyone else competing….he had the reason
And, this is the true strength of love ♥️
You made it champion 🎈☺️❤️
This is true love. The dedication and commitment never dies!!
Er drückte das Gewicht nicht alleine...
Ruhe in Frieden Frau Steiner😢😢😢
His wife was up there in heaven watching and just imagine her reaction when he won. 😭😭💜❤❤😊😊
Actually, she was chilling in eternal nothingness. may she rest in peace.

@@taternater7495 Thats what 1800s bank robbers said.
Jedes Mal aufs Neue Gänsehaut pur!!!
This should’ve been the opening ceremony of the Olympics a tribute to all the sacrifices the athletes have made along the way just to get this position
I would have BROKEN DOWN if I were in his position. Fulfilling a promise you made to someone before they passed is the best feeling. You didn’t let them down, you didn’t give up, you did it for them.
He looked up and said "Im doing this for you." She looked down and smiled as she reached down to grab the bar, lifting, "No, I am doing this for you."
B r o 😭
Roleplayers gotta go please 💀💀💀
Corny bro
Pretty sure that’s against the rules. Cheater.
On that day everybody was happy including his rivals. That is the beauty of sports.
I have never cried so much since my grandpa's funeral
I remember this. 2008 games were on another freaking level in so many of the sports.
fax
greatest Olympics ever. especially as a swimmer, no other year comes close.
Loss has the power to destroy or lift up. He clearly made his decision on the matter.
I never cry but this made me cry. I’m so happy for him.
He did it for her, and her memory helped him achieve his life-long goal even though she isnt physically there anymore. Well deserved x100❤
The human race can be cruel, disgusting and oftentimes cold. But there are some humans that outshine all the negative and bring hope to the rest of us. This person is one such example, the indomitable human spirit is truly a beautiful thing
Perfect song. If you've ever felt loss... you know
The Night We Met - Lord Huron 😢
was looking for this comment, thank you.
Thank you!🙏 Love Lord Huron. Ace up my sleeve one of my faves
Absolutely
Thanks
No words can define his success
I saw this when he won and I cryed like a child.
Motivation from losing a loved one is stronger than any other motivation
Never seen something so authentic that’s pure love and hope
It's a very very emotional scene because my tears came out congratulations to him & to his wife.❤🎉
I’ve seen this video before and the animatic of his wife’s spirit helping him lift the bar, but I still manage to tear up every time
Power of the human spirit. Absolute inspiration to all people suffering from heartbreak.
He went from crushing realization in to full bliss raving happy in 1s after the lift. That's power of love. He was reconciled with his promise to his love. This amazing to get to witness.
Wow....It is surreally emotional! Truest Love Does not lie everywhere, but where it does, the scenes are like this ❤.
This is the power of loss and how we can make better moments from it
Goosebumps.
The book series?
Ngl I cried, the photo at the end along with the medal hits hard, it's amazing what people can do for someone else
It would be amazing to have someone in your life that was that important to you.
I just forking balled my eyes out after watching this 😭😭😭, what an iconic moment.
I don't cry often but this actually made me cry
I’m crying this is so beautiful 😭😭😭😭😭
Literal goose bumps, nothing beats seeing someone accomplish a goal at the top of there sport or whatever they are doing. And what was at stake and what he’d been through. Just makes it much better. Kudos
I’m crying. The love he has for her is unmatched.
“There were 4 hands on the bar that day” 😭
Stop😭
9999 iq bro respect❤
So he was disqualified?
Genuinely makes me cry every time.
He is not even caring for that gold medal ... he was proud , sad , alone and his most prized possession was his wife photo ...
A gentle soul... may his wife rest in peace .
I cry uncontrollably every time I see this ♥️♥️
So happy for him. You can tell how determined he was to make that promise 🥺
Very inspiring 😢❤
I cried on this video... How he did it for his wife and for their love..
His happiness was over filled.
He deserved that medal ❤
I saw the news. His wife was died due to a car accident😭
Nobody says: …was died
It’s:
His wife died in a car accident.
That’s proper English. You’re welcome!
This is the moment real men cry. What a legend. RIP to his soulmate
Beijing olympics gave us amazing moments that i will never forget!!!
Congratulations!So glad you were able to keep your promise , I can only imagine how you felt.❤
Unvergessliche Momente einzigartige Erinnerungen ❤
his wife was very proud and all the men were moved to see his persistence
people with important person in his life will understand this is how really heart breaking feel
I will never forget this moment! I bawled then and I bawl every time I see the footage again.
Sport offers so many beautiful moments, it's very sad and very beautiful at the same time.
This clip always brings me to tears. What a wonderful moment for Matthias.
I cannot think of a more worthy victory. This guy loved his wife so, so, so much. I’m legit tearing up.
