Probably the best built superheavy of all time. He fulfills the expectation of what a truly strong man should look like. His form is not picture perfect but that just indicates how much reserve power he had.

The Bull Of Kiev! Scientifically proven to be the most powerful human of all time as measured in peak Watts. He got the monster weight up Fast.

He is still the greatest in my opinion. I have been looking for good video of Pisarenko for years! Thank You VERY Much!!!!

Hard to believe he started out as an Greco-Roman wrestler. Can you imagine having to wrestle this guy...??? lol. The Soviets recognized that he was so much stronger in his weight training than most anyone else, so they made him into a weightlifter. Great decision.

не знаю как эти ребята из такого глубокого приседа поднимаются... Просто невероятно.

He would dominate any era, given the advancment in training systems used these days. SUPERMAN !

Speed is unreal. He's the goat pound for pound.

very impressive indeed..i wonder what happened with all these elite lifters when CCCP colapsed??

I appreciated seeing the slow motion sections. Thanks for posting.

wow those shoulders are like a mile appart!

Extraordinary .. completely out of this world. That clean is SICK SICK SICK! A prototype for a He-man "Masters of the Universe" action figure.

Terrific !!!

Absolute Greatness!!!

Haha .. the greatest wreslter to walk the earth .. agreed!!

that c&j looked like a warmup.

i ve read the interviju whith him were he sad that he have clean and jerked 270 on training he did a dubble on 260 c&j and cleaned 280 at training

strong!

Damn he could really get low for a guy as big as he was!

Dude was incredible . Just because he got caught there will always be a blemish. Reality is they all use steroids .

No problem .. nice avatar: and yes Hossein Razazadeh also had clean recovery that looked like insanely easy.

согласен но почему он везде говорит что его 465 кг до сих пор непревзойдены ? ведь Курлович и Тараненко набирали 472 и 475 соответственно

I believe that weightlifting is a sport that made for CCCP(USSR)

He looks stronger than anyone I`ve ever seen

He will AlWAYS be the BEST super in my opinion. I was crushed to find out that he was banned by the Russian federation for that issue with customs in Canada. Does anyone know the details on that????

1:26 could you even imagine standing up with 454lb overhead, from that deep?

Huge and tremendous flexibility

Best heavyweight of all time. Screw that arab guy.

Wonder what he would have been like in NFL ? Who knows ?

Then check out Alexander Karelin, the prototype for SKELETOR

push read all comment button for the context, no one lifted 267.5kg, if you believe so, then post the video, I dont expect a response! PS what medal was taken from him???????????????????? he got caught carrying anabolics not taking them??

i thought the record was 266 by terinenko?

what advancement??

His clean was too easy.. i think he could clean over 280.. maybe even 300. Maybe squat 400?

The music was annoying

why so?

You couldn't be further from the truth. If you want to see who he would be up against as a heavyweight wrestler, check out Alexander Karelin, and get back to me..

its in russian if you can speak russian just type his name on google in russian

?never happened

no such thing!

nicely stolen from the Weightlifting exchange

music sucks
