Message: [QUOTE="SVCBeercats, post: 3740674, member: 7874"] HEAR! HEAR! Whenever people start bad mouthing smaller athletes relative to their strength. I refer them to Naim Süleymanoğlu (4 ft 11 in 132 lb). Pound for pound one of the strongest people to ever walk this good Earth. Süleymanoğlu is the first and only weightlifter to have snatched 2.5 times his body weight and also is the second of only seven lifters to date to clean & jerk three times his body weight. His nickname was "Pocket Hercules." Which is good and bad!? For greater appreciation of his strength here are his top lifts in pounds. Rermember he competed in the 60 kg class or 132 lb class. Snatch 152.5 kg = 336.2 lb Clean & Jerk 190 kg = 418.8 lb His tendons and ligaments must have been implants from FibreMax! His life story is quite interesting. A movie was actually made of his life. Probably played well in Turkey and probably was banned in Bulgaria. :) [ATTACH type="full" alt="1605706988180.png"]61415[/ATTACH] [B][SIZE=6][COLOR=rgb(184, 49, 47)]After starting the video click on WATCH ON YOUTUBE in the video frame.[/COLOR][/SIZE][/B] [MEDIA=youtube]i7KRVIrT2ZQ[/MEDIA] [/QUOTE]
