I think that Alexeev could lift 260...easily..rest in peace one the greatest lifters of the world...🖐🖐👍👍👍👍
You think absolutely right! Alekseev during 1976 easily pushed 265 kg. But due to the fact that he had short fingers, he could not realize himself in the snatch. Otherwise jerk 270 and jerk 210 would have been the norm for him even then. In a word. this is the god of weightlifting. Sorry for my bad english.
As a kid, I would watch this on WW of Sports, I wanted to be just as strong as that Russian man. He inspired me in a lifelong passion in weightlifting and exercise.
Я с ним из одного города. Несколько раз видел лично на улице. Очень добрый мужик. Наш город занесён в книгу Гиннеса, по количеству олимпийских чемпионов на душу населения.
Алексеев родился на Рязанщине, жил одно время в Рязани на улице Родищева там ему котедж построили с босейном в центре города дом и сейчас стоит красавец
Saw this live on tv. Everyone (except his competitors) was rooting for this man. Strength of mind equal to strength of body as the fine camera-work clearly shows.
For me 11 years old, it was incredible to watch..Its soon 48 years ago, the WR is now only 12 kg more, what could Alexev do if he had the possibilities 40 years later...
I remember this like it was *yesterday*. Jim McKay told viewers at home that they might consider asking small children to leave the room -- we really, really, REALLY didn't know what was going to happen.
190kg a l'arraché et 256kg a l'épaulé jeté. Ses 2 records du monde ont été battu mais il y a 10ans il aurait eu une médaille d'argent sur le podium. Un très grand champion.
His 255kg c&j done on 2nd attempt didn't take a 3rd. He was from Olympic press period till 1972 press was dropped wasn't world best in snatch except in early period as press& c& j were his lifts.He delayed doing his best by just increasing records by tiny amounts when he was quite capable of reaching levels of today(1014lb Olympic back squat 1971) Sadly heart problems & sickness after retirement 1980.
If you look at the lift there was no double knee bend just a straight pull. Both the clean and the jerk were done easily but for some reason he keep staggering around with it.
I see he has two shoulder buttons; in case he loses some weight. That's exactly what I wear to 24hour Fitness....minus the pretentious thumb tape of course.
in 2023 nobody but lasha can lift this weight, gor, lalayan, alidavouvi, martyrosian are behind of 251 kg, even lasha fail his last attemp in 2023 world championship with 260 and he didn't look too comfortable with 253 kg
SIMPLE : THIS IS THE GREATEST OFFENSE IN ALL SPORT : NOBODY, NOT ONLY SPEAKS OF ALEXYEEV...2nd DECLARE, AS I HERE SAY : VASILI ALEXYEEV GREATEST AND STRONGEST SUPER EVER...80 WORLD RECORDS. EVEN IF YOU TAKE OUT THE PRESS...BEATS NAIM SULOMOGLU AND DAVID RIGERT. SQUATTED 1014 POUNDS...ALEXYEEV MAKE ANYBODY TAP OUT🤬
From far 1976 to now, 2024, almost 50 years have passed, and this weight has been exceeded only 12 kg since then!
Phenomenal!
its weird to see people pretty close to doing this much weight that look like this guy would eat them for breakfast tho
Where were you in 1976?
An awesome man I had the privilege of seeing very briefly at London's Heathrow Airport, two or three years afterwards. I'll never forget him.
Strongest Man ever - without any doubt!
80 Worldrecords, and
Many Olympic Gold Medals, and World Championships.

Vasily Alekseyev.... una leggenda del sollevamento pesi.... grande Vasily
Великий Василий Алексеев!!! ❤

Г. Шахты Ростовской области? Наши тренеры говорили: Алексеев + Ригерт = выигрыш в командном зачёте.
*0:34** Like a bear! Great Vasily Alexeev! RIP.*
For me this is the most bright moment of sport history
Montreal was a truly special games -- so many memories. Nadia Comaneci, Bruce Jenner, Dean Smith....
MONTREAL '76 OLYMPICS Baby !😁👍🏻👍🏻

Classic. I’m 57. I remember watching wide world of sports and seeing stuff like this
For me 11 years old, it was incredible to watch..Its soon 48 years ago, the WR is now only 12 kg more, what could Alexev do if he had the possibilities 40 years later...
This was the MAN. I locked in watching him lift in 1972 and 1976. Great man!!!
RIP
It must have been incredible to speak with such a great man.
Quality is amazing
I remember this like it was *yesterday*. Jim McKay told viewers at home that they might consider asking small children to leave the room -- we really, really, REALLY didn't know what was going to happen.
Jim McKay knew nothing about weightliftng.
Simplemente ESPECTACULAR! En 30 segundos se resume uno de los momentos más espectaculares en la historia del deporte. Grande Alexeev!
Monster!!!!! (RIP)

He was the first weightlifting superstar. In my books, he is the GOAT.
Got!!! But not goat.
A legend, the goat
Насколько же это кинемаграфично снято и смонтированно. Офигенно.
I was a 7 year old American kid.
I was amazed and loved this guy.
He was awesome! I often wondered what he had in his belly. I think it was a tuned mass damper! 🤨
Великий 👏👏👏
Amazing!
il più grande
LEGEND!
One of the strongest human beings ever to walk the face of the earth.
Sometimes I believe he had to be the strongest in that time. One swipe would break a man in two!
With all the clutter in my bedroom, I have to lift almost this much weight just to get out of bed every morning to go to the bathroom.
Iconic

Now that's POWER BABY !!! 😁👊👊

Tremendous explosion! He was Sampson!!
badass
*50 kg green plates !*
50kg plates are still used in para powerlifting. You'll only see it in super-heavyweights though.
If you look at the lift there was no double knee bend just a straight pull. Both the clean and the jerk were done easily but for some reason he keep staggering around with it.
some 255kg reason
0:35 double knee bend
@@rihosims no fucking way
The judges didn't want to give him the lift. They made him hold it forever. Judging was petty and sometimes political back then.
Let's see you lift it without Staggering!🙄😏
Man I Loathe Social Media TROGLODYTES!
Mito.
Hardly any knee bend 😯

А зачем арбуз целиком глотать?
Под Луи Фериньо косит
Может наоборот?
Потоптался изрядно, Василий Иванович! Судя по всему не совсем четкая фиксация, хотя поднял вес довольно легко
