Thank you for making this video. I am a baseball fan at heart, but I like all sports in general. I appreciate this clip because the athlete is very skilled. The look of joy on his face after the successful squat was priceless.
Botted comment.
I almost cried. He is so happy and he is showing the whole world that he has Strength, ability to overcome hurdles unique to himself, he has form and grace. What an inspiration!!
He made it look super easy too wow🎉
He got a special type of strength
This is factually true.
Like Lenny from 'of mice and men'
@@slimesosaYt what joke?
It always blows my mind the people
Who trash talk these athletes. These people are world class through and through. Even on our best day, they would blow us out on their worst day. Thanks for making this video and sharing it, these athletes put in hard work, sweat, and determination to get to this level of athleticism. It deserves recognition and respect
Omg! This is so crazy ! When you need a five man spot you know your in a dangerous situation lol
Almost like the 2015 Special Olympics World Games in Los Angeles when Canada's Jackie Barrett Squatted 611 lbs. He also needed 5 spotters.
Hyeongrak Kim came close at 606 lbs. in Berlin.
Wonho Kang, Hyeongrak Kim, and Jackie Barrett (retired) are three of the best Squatters in Special Olympics World Games history, and all of them have great techniques.
@@Grox44 Officially, Special Olympics International doesn't have World Records due to concerns that some athletes will take shortcuts and win at all costs.
Here are some of the biggest lifts in Special Olympics World Games History among Men's Powerlifters:
Squat - 277.5 KGs, Jackie Barrett (Canada)
Bench Press - 155 KGs, Brady Tanner (USA)
Deadlift - 297.5 KGs, Jackie Barrett (Canada)
Triple Combination - 697.5 KGs, Jackie Barrett (Canada)
Pound for pound, the greatest lifter in Special Olympics World Games history was Andy Leonard from USA as he Deadlifted 440 lbs. but he weighed just over 110 lbs.
Thank you for making this video. I am a baseball fan at heart, but I do like all sports in general. I appreciate this clip because the look on his face after the successful squat was pure joy.
Botted comment. Same as the other person’s.
Lightwork 🏋🏻♂️👏🏼
Legs would turn my body into paste
BEAST
Cleared it with ease. He can do more!!
My man
Light weight babayyyyy
🇰🇷🇰🇷🇰🇷🇰🇷🇰🇷🇰🇷🇰🇷
wow la force est en dominance ici
He easily can do 600
Korea's Hyeongrak Kim Squatted 606 lbs., just 5 lbs. away from tying the Special Olympics World Games Squat record holder, Jackie Barrett from Canada.
Keep in mind that Jackie Barrett was 41 years old when he Squatted 612 lbs. at the 2015 Special Olympics World Games in Los Angeles, which was also the Newfoundland and Labrador mainstream record in his weight class.
What a beast!! I could never do that
He made that look so easy
Made that look too easy !
Ong wow that's frigging a
Naming like
E holy cow I never would have guessed this
Cra
ZY
Wow!!!!
That’s you know what strength!
Oh wow! That is impressive. Way to go Kang!
Apparently during my editing of my original comment two people commented so I'm third 😂
No way. Some pro football players can’t squat that kind of weight.
is it true people with Down syndrome have extra innate strength?
Bet he doesn't run into any issues bagging groceries
anybody seen South Park?
Jackie Barrett, Wonho Kang, and Hyeongrak Kim, three of the greatest Squatters in Special Olympics World Games history, would have easily owned Jimmy Varmer in the Weightlifting events.
@@HalifaxHercules and Eric tried to fake the Olympics
Wow
Men being men😂🎉
He can hit 650 I bet
That’s is a lot of weight I didn’t think be was going to be able to lift it but he did I
The key to Korea's success in Special Olympics Powerlifting are not just their "best of the best" national team selection process based on national games/championships results, but also body part specialization where they put a lot of focus on lower body exercises.
In fact, Wonho did Squat training 3-4 times per week.
Keep in mind that when Jackie "The Newfoundland Moose" Barrett (Canada) Squatted nearly 612 lbs. at the 2015 Special Olympics World Games in Los Angeles, while he trained up to three hours a day and 3-4 times a week, sometimes in Western Newfoundland's famous severe winter weather conditions, he only did Squat training once a week but did moderately heavy worksets and a lot of supplementary routines.
Effortless!
Buddy can prolly squat half a ton
All he do is leg day
In Powerlifting training, that can be dangerous to specialize on one discipline and body part three or four times a week.
Usually, in Powerlifting training, you do Squat and lower body exercises one day, Bench Press and upper body routines two days later, and then Deadlift and a mix of upper and lower body supplementary exercises each week in order to stay well balanced.
For example, when Jackie Barrett trained for the 2015 Special Olympics World Games, he trained three or four days a week, one day for Squats and lower body, one day for Bench Press and upper body, and one day for Deadlift and upper/lower body, and he still Squatted 611 lbs.
However, each lifter has their own routine.
If focusing on leg work and Squats works for Wonho Kang, its the main thing.
He looks like it's nothing for him
I am super super glad this was a short video for me to earn free usdc with fan rewards. imma mis it
Why he built like 🤓
Not really into sports like that so I'm here to comment to get me some free points from this rewards app
Autism strength
Oh yeah
@@user-ll6yl8rp1o Lifters like Wonho Kang and Hyeongrak Kim likely idolized Special Olympics Powerlifting legends like Jackie Barrett, a former Special Olympics Powerlifter from Canada with Autism and one of the strongest Squatters in Special Olympics World Games history.
Jackie was so strong that he Squatted 612 lbs. at the 2015 Special Olympics World Games in Los Angeles at 41 years of age, also a Newfoundland and Labrador Men's Master-1 Super Heavyweight Squat Equipped Record at the time.
Wonho and Hyeongrak almost reminds me of Jackie with the big roars after making large Deadlifts.
First
Why he built like that 🤓 though
Beast
