I remember watching him on TV in 1996 olympics , i was a kid but i never forgot his name and face to this day, respect to Italians one of the biggest sport nations in the world. From croatia ♥️
Thanks man! It’s an honour to have him among us and a pleasure to have you as neighbours here, Croatia is stunning. Also the other Italian in this thread was making a joke about WWII, he wasn’t actually insulting you lol
“No man has the right to be an amateur in the matter of physical training. It is a shame for a man to grow old without seeing the beauty and strength of which his body is capable.” -Socrates
He shows perfectly how to fight Injuries and Age. I personally think that he deserves another gold medal: still motivational and hypnotic at the Age of 50. Chapeau
That's odd. 🤔 Whenever *I* get tired and plan to skip my workout, I watch this video and start.... To think I'll never attain this kind of raw strength and a body like that (even at 50). Then I don't workout. I just cry, and I blame, and eat burgers or cookies or both.
25 anni dopo Atlanta, sono ancora qua tutta ammirata, e mi chiedo come fa ad avere questo viso pulito e sereno che non tradisce nessun sforzo. Super Yuri.
Superb. In modern gymnastics, the dismount from the ring as evolved with so many spins, twisted somersaults etc.. detracting from the main part of the ring routine which is ( or rather was) pure strength. And sure enough , modern gymnasts can fly on these dismounts but there are not as strong as gymnasts of yesteryears. Very few gymnasts can do a sustained perfect iron cross these days. I wish we could get back to work on improving past routines for the rings these days and forget complicated dismounts.
Look at his inverted cross, it's not as good as nowadays athletes. Plus nowadays there's much more harder strength move like zanetti, van gelder, butterfly to inverted cross, etc
somehow I ended up here because of a TikTok, I don’t know who JURY IS, “lord of the rings” he was just mention, any ways craziest sport I’ve seen !! so much strength you need to have, 🤯geez 🤯
I'm Italian and so proud to have had an absolute legend like him in my country. He is the embodiment of what an human body should be able to accomplish
Great great athlete, even greater human being. His mindset, positive attitude, and determination, as well as hard work brought him the success he deserved. Even after multipe serious injuries he always came back. He returned to compete on 2004, to fulfill a promise he had done to his father while he was fighting for life. His goal was to qualify and he got bronze, at almost 35!
...seppur non conoscendolo personalmente ,quasi coetaneo,lo ammiro perché traspare la sua positività nella vita e la sua grande energia positiva che lo ha portato ad essere uno dei più grandi campioni italiani "puliti" che ho sempre amato,fonte di ispirazione...un grande abbraccio!
And he's lethally funny too! Him and Sara Simeoni did the comment show about the Olimpics games in 2021, it's my first time watching the post-game discussion, they were so great. I spent the time rotfling, tbh.
Saturday evening, I just got this YT suggestion while thinking about getting some chips and beer from the kitchen. I pass....at least for now. Immensly impressive what he did!
@@kalamity6356 Well, in terms of achievements i guess Scherbo takes the cake (he won many medals). But in this case i was being specific about "being better at working the rings".
Incredible Yuri! By the way you guys should check Eleftherios Petrounias (Greek and current gold metalists on rings)he does crazy things and superb iron Cross without false grip and ropes shaking..
I remember him and watching Watts Zap during an Olympis!a woman let out a loud Gasp when he did the 1st Iron Cross! and he looked her way, and gave her a nod!

This is pure raw strength of the human body.
Not so pure

u sure no doping?
Not raw for sure
I bet the all fuckers
here to insinuate about the use of doping are all Olympic medalists, right?
He shows perfectly how to fight Injuries and Age. I personally think that he deserves another gold medal: still motivational and hypnotic at the Age of 50. Chapeau
50 years old and rocking a damn shredded physic 🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻
The way he switch between ultra dynamic movement and static positions. So much ease. Beautiful and inspiring to watch.
Whenever I feel tired and plans to skip workout, I watch this video and start workout
That's odd.

Grande Yuri, una delle nostre grandi leggende olimpiche.
35 years old and he won the medal, wow...
I remember him!. He was a beast back in the day. The"King of The Iron Cross". He was the one inspired Yuri VanGelder.

Yeah he is good at iron cross, but his inverted cross is shit compared todays gymnast

Uno dei più grandi sportivi italiani di sempre insieme a Mennea e qualche altro … IMMENSO YURI ❤️
Perfetto ? ... de' più!!!! ✌️👋👏👏👏
And he's lethally funny too! Him and Sara Simeoni did the comment show about the Olimpics games in 2021, it's my first time watching the post-game discussion, they were so great. I spent the time rotfling, tbh.
Amazing gymnast and gentleman
Forza muscolare, forza di volontà, persona umile a dir poco stupenda!Grazie Yuri!!!
LA FORZA VERA .... un vero campione Italiano ...👍👍👍
Grazie !!!
Im glad hes still doing well after the age 50 wish him keep motivating people ❤❤❤
Saturday evening, I just got this YT suggestion while thinking about getting some chips and beer from the kitchen. I pass....at least for now. Immensly impressive what he did!
2:21 what a landing, that was impeccable and as if every other movement wasn’t performed to perfection.
His pushing strength just daymnnn. Btw I never see his older 50 yo video, WOW!!!
That man is so strong.
La perfezione! Forza ed eleganza. Inarrivabile!
YOW! THANK YOU!! INCREDIBLE WORK! VERY MUCH APPRECIATED!! BLESSINGS!!
He and Alexei Nemov are my favorite gymnasts!
Great video! 💪👍
He should do a challenge with Nile Wilson on his RUclips channel. That would be epic!
Yeah
I mean it’s been 30 years
Matteo Di Rubbo you haven’t seen him today tho... may be old but he’s still doing stuff that leave me speachless!
now juri is 50 years old
That biceps brah!
GOD HAS BLESSED YOU AND YOU SHOULD NEVER FORGET THAT
🇮🇪☘️🇮🇪☘️🇮🇪☘️🇮🇪☘️🇮🇪☘️🇮🇪
Chechi, the *true* lord of the rings!! Has anyone done it better than him? I doubt it. Scherbo, perhaps, but still i don't know.
I'd say Van Gelder is close...but no!
What do you mean with better? Strength or achievements?
@@kalamity6356 Well, in terms of achievements i guess Scherbo takes the cake (he won many medals). But in this case i was being specific about "being better at working the rings".
@@jfg1104I've seen van Gelder do the inverted cross better than Chechi in this video
Il più grande di tutti i tempi.
BRAVO!!!!!👏 👏👏👏👏👏
THATS POWER...
Not the GOAT, but the probably the cleanest iron cross in history
Undefeated 1993 -1997 .. it’s a goat thing in itself
Yes he is the goat, also better that van gelder
Petrounias who is the best right now could also be considered for the GOAT
@@monstercraft3519 van gelder is better, Chechi inverted cross is shit compared to van gelders'
@@chaosdragon6588 AhahahhahahahahahhahahahahahahahahahhhHHHHHahh
Never seen a person as ignorant of gymnastics as you.
Wow! I want to be like him..i need constant practice
I'm going to need my ice pack just watching this.
50 year old yuri could beat me up in the blink of an eye
elegante, sembra che non fa nulla. immensamente unico
awesome vid

Amazing

3:26 Andrea Larosa + Wolverine (Hugh Jackman) = Yuri Chechi 😮
Orgoglio nazionale
Grazie
Muscles being teared apart shown as art
Grande Yuri!!! Orgoglio italiano!
Jesus what a beast.
I used tovwatch him and always felt the rings were extensions of his arms and shoulders ! specially in the iron cross
Perfecto!
I remember him and watching Watts Zap during an Olympis!a woman let out a loud Gasp when he did the 1st Iron Cross! and he looked her way, and gave her a nod!
its at the 1.26 minute mark!
Immenso Yuri 🇮🇹🇮🇹💪🏻💪🏻♥️
Orgoglio Italico🇮🇹💪🏻
Great athlete
Increibleee
Gotta be something with still rings and the name Yuri
Leggenda!
Insane strength!
goodnight..
such a legend
BRAVISSIMO,,,,,,,,,
Respect
He had the worst luck. Yuri deserved more than one shot at the Olympics. But, he made them count when he finally made it in 1996.
POWER!!
one day he has to share his secret of defying gravity...
GOAT
Un atleta puro
Easily the most muscular and strongest red head I've ever seen.
Mostro !
judging by the way he looks, i believe his wife is very very happy
and he draws the gaze of young 20 years old chicks
Considering the title, and OF COURSE he still is the Lord of the Rings, you should have used another music. But thanks, great video.
Looks both ways nods head yes I’m a bad man 🤣😂!!!!!!
красава
Ты тоже красава?.я тоже красавчик 😁👍🏽
Heard work payed back
Best of the best
Yuri van gelder.
No Yuri van Gelder is the best of the best, this guy is one of the best
yep he dont give F about gravitation
