is this fake?
« on: October 21, 2011, 07:31:42 AM »
 :o




As of the Athens 2004 Summer Olympics, the official world record for the Men's Clean and Jerk is 263.0 kilograms (580 lb). This record was set by Hossein Rezazadeh of Iran.[2]
 
The former world record in the Clean and Jerk was 266.0 kilograms (586 lb) by Leonid Taranenko of the Soviet Union. However this weight is not considered a world record by the International Weightlifting Federation, since all the old records were annulled after a restructuring of weight classes.

His stance isnt in the finishing position of a proper clean and jerk - not that easy to press 500 ponds plus over your head

440 plates + 45 pound Olympic Bar = 485 Pounds - Close enough to 500 pounds

Yea, no wonder. Desperate need to get Soviets off the top lists - if no other way, let's change weight limits or whatever voodoo   ::)
Soviets still the strongest, fastest, most accurate... After so many decades.... What a joke sports became when Cold War ended.


BTW, in pic probably most plates are 10 kg's

I agree. A record is a record, you can't erase it

There's a slight chance this is real. If he caught it falling from the ceiling that is.

Can some of you get real. Samir, while a strong guy, was NOWHERE near the strength of his elite weightlifting counterparts, size relative.

I think it is a real pic. I think the bar has (2) 25 KG plates and the other plates are 10 KG bumper plates.

Total weight 130 KGs = 286 pounds.

It is obviously Samir, I would guess the late 80's, but I do not know that gym.

*Looking at Samir's left wrist, perhaps all the plates are fake. I don't know.

Weightlifting bar doesn't weight 45 pounds, it's 20 kg EXACT.

ok so 20kg is 44.1 lbs.  45lbs is therefore 98% accurate ::)

Only 100 % accuracy is acceptable.
