- Yuri Zacharevich was one of the biggest start of the soviet team and of the USSR as a whole. He is the 5th best weightlifter ever by sinclair and the best heavyweight lifter of all time.
Big thank you to Weightlifting archive, Frank Rothwell, Lift up and Weightlifting news agent for the archives video - this video wouldn't exist without them - Sport
I hope the youtube algorithm picks this up, this is a really high quality video
Юрий Захоревич-Совеская спортивная Суперзвезда!!!
Мы его вклад в тяжелую атлетику не забываем!!!❤❤❤
Beautiful video mate thanks for putting it together for everyone to enjoy!
I think toughest athlete in the world so far is greko roman wrestler Alexander Karelin. Noone dominated the sport as long as he did. Also legendary armwrestler John Brzenk, who was number one for around 20 years
I haven’t even watched it and I already know it’s going to be goated
phenomenal video brother. we were robbed of that Botev vs Zacharevich match up at Seoul :(
True but Yuri would have destroyed Botev by 20+ kg in the shape he was in.
If they had faced off, they would have become the 1 and 2 greatest of all time. Which one was which would have been decided that day.
Great stuff. Look forward to more
Thank you so very much for this fascinating video.
Great video👏👏
Love the line, "to encourage gravity to take a vacation."
Great work. Keep then coming 👌
Great video! Thank you!
Great vid
Appreciate it!
babe wake up vintage lifts made a youtube channel
Yes I did do that
Amazing stuff
Very nice video !!!
Great video!
Zakharevich was the lifter that made me serious about weightlifting, I had watched a few worlds and Olympics and thought it was cool, but nothing blew my mind like when I saw the 88 Olympics 110s on CZcams
So this is what your voice sounds like!!!!
great video, Gabriel Sinclair likes this video, please make a new one with kurlovich
I was literally planning the next one to be about Kurlovich hahaha
@@vintagelifts thanks
Keep up the good work 🏋️🏋️
Exquisite video
Blagoevs 195.5 was done in 1983.. the video here is 195kg from world cup 1982
Being one of the fee Americans watching, I appreciate the conversion to pounds. Great videos.
Nice dude!
yes drugged up to the eyes, they said when he pi..ed , it was said to be blacker than coca cola
That's a valentin christov story
@@ozwunder69 all the eastern block countries were state sponsored drugged to the hilt, i sat by Stefan Botev when he was 19 when he come to Cardiff, biggest thighs i had ever seen, he broke the jounior snatch world record with what looked like with ease, juhaptergee
Phenomenon specimen!!
Why is the first lift censored ???
Anyway thank you for sharing this video. Sometimes people forget about some lifters because in that era there were so many good competitors.
Botev did the 250 kg in 1988 ?maybe march.. definitely not 1987
Chris Leroux has the footage of 205kg snatch by Weller or used to anyhow
I was there at the 1989 Junior world championships in Ft Lauderdale Fl. Weller did 190, 200 and 205 several months later he almost died in a car crash in which his girlfriend died.
@@williamshine1346 I think he jerked 230kg then did a big jump? 245kg
3 weightclasses, he had records in the 90 kilo class, they all ended up broken though.
I'm happy this is the first public video you did. Zacharevich really is that amazing. He did an all-time total on his 4th lift.
I meant it more as up to the injury he held records in 2 different weight classes - the 197.5 was actually the first attempt at a 110kg world record
460 pounds. Thats like grabbing a dozen 40 lb. bags of water softening salt. Many people would struggle to pick up one bag in each hand.
Where to find the sinclair list all time ( man and woman )?
I have the men list on my Instagram profile in the story highlights
Nice, God Bless, We hope all good Athletes stay with their people, not to be forced to bow to Dictators, like in Iran, or Russia or other Dictatorship countries, people should realize in Europe, or U.S. you can Compete even if you are against the Government but in other Countries they don't let you join the Olympic or World Championship Events, As an Iranian American who is Against Terrorist Ayatollah's in Iran we Solute all good Athletes , God Bless All Good people and Freedom lovers of the World---- # Mahsa Amini
Not only did Yuri "feel more tired than usual", his vision was impaired, his urine was black, and he was constantly dizzy, because of the huge doses of st@roids his coaches were giving him. Poor guy, what he went through was insane, especially while still so young.
That was Valentin christov of Bulgaria.. nice story thou
Не бывает всё идеально захаровича конечно проблемы с включением у Ботева хорошо включения
And like the rest, without drugs no one would have ever heard of him.
Steroids for sure.
