Behdad Salimi 214kg Snatch World Record - 2011 World Weightlifting Championship

[ITzJpiZzlE]

why cant they fucking use pounds.......

[lawrywild]

@ITzJpiZzlE Because almost the whole world uses kilograms.

[deathtopopstars]

@ITzJpiZzlE lol because we're the only ones in the world that don't use kilograms

[MidnightStar1000]

@ITzJpiZzlE

Because kilogram is much better!

[Perspar1]

@ITzJpiZzlE sorry but that's such a stupid comment, obviously american?

[devour880]

@ITzJpiZzlE 471 pounds i agree pounds r better i had to look it up ;D

[ahmednabil]

@devour880

lol better?? you're just used to them.

its really stupid of america not to switch back to the metric system since you're the only one not using it.

[finglofin]

@ITzJpiZzlE

....americans

[atgcuz]

1:06 it looks like his left ass cheek is higher than his right. wtf.

[vitalyman]

he definitely screamed "fus ro da!" before he lifted the weight lol

[MrFutbol4life]

Pat Mendez is coming!!!!!!

[Kavehisftw]

@MrFutbol4life Lol. Sure, you just forgot the age difference between them is only 6 months, and behdad was still ages better even 3 years ago. There are juniors in iran lifting more than mendes. He's superstrong, but he will never beat Salimi.

[GBDazzler]

@MrFutbol4life Lol, just lol.

[Xynil333]

He says fus ro dah.

[MrP2planbenoughsaid]

what is this in pounds

[therealmattdillon]

@MrP2planbenoughsaid 471!

[spaced9999]

@MrP2planbenoughsaid 470lbs

[jlmknight]

how did he make that look soooo easy

[khash89]

LOL at all the rednecks on this page, the west world is crumbling while Iran keeps on getting stronger!

[Jimmyretired]

@khash89 I collect guns

[canitasteyou321]

i culd do this wit my penis

[windstorminator]

lol, people be hating since his confidence and his energy comes from praying, lol how stupid can u be in the 21st century, damn americans can't get over religion, yet u have right to religion, speech and life, thats probably why your good damn government suck my testicles and no lies(i am canadian) but i feel sorry for y'all in 99%, makes me laugh seeing Gingrich, there needs to be a revolution and as i see it, it ain't happening in the US, maybe because nobody knows how to start a revolution

[rejuvenile21]

once again, holy shit that was impressive - from a non-arab Canadian.

[rejuvenile21]

@rejuvenile21 i'm not a judge but at 1:04 he lifted and dropped the weight??? I know from power-lifting that would actually load the muscles with energy. Was anything mentioned about the loading prior to lifting???

[DBBMino]

@rejuvenile21 If the bar doesn't travel above the knee your aloud to drop it and lift it again as the second pull starts above the knee.

[33Cmen]

Anybody else waiting for his arms to snap??

[silexent]

Rezazadeh is visibly...wistful.

[Kanashto]

AAAAAH!!!!! KHODAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!

[MrRJD81]

HE WENT BEAST MODE

[devil0slayer]

mariusz pudz exercises with 200 KG :D

I CAN LIFT 150 and im no pro at all, i dont take shit.

[getoutofmycountrycom]

Afterwards he strapped 214kg of explosives and killed many people. sand niggers! wish they all died

[mrpersiangulf8]

@getoutofmycountrycom lol...faggot

[getoutofmycountrycom]

@mrpersiangulf8 I aint even mad.. I love persian girls.. they all have those long noses and the best smelling hair.. gah persian pussy is great. I rub and hope a genie comes out

[metallica1567]

@getoutofmycountrycom

I hope your mother gets raped and killed subhuman shit :)

[getoutofmycountrycom]

@metallica1567 LULULULULULU...in the name of allah. I wish I could pee on his quran and dip him in pigs blood

[metallica1567]

@getoutofmycountrycom

Subhuman American mixed mutt cunts can bark all they want, but an IRANIAN is the world's superheavyweight record holder at the end of the day :)

[metallica1567]

@getoutofmycountrycom

America is going to be overrun by blacks and mexicans soon. My precious Iran, however, will continue to be Iranian :) Persian pride :)

[brineal2]

@metallica1567 i guess you guys need something to be proud of seeing as the quality of life in iran is dog shit

[IochkataXmA]

hey wait the bulgarian antoniq krustev has 216 kg and a world record how is 214 also a world record

[SmallersCY]

@IochkataXmA the weight classes changed in 1992 and this is a world record since then

[skirts365]

@SmallersCY Really? Supers are still unlimited weight. Kurlovich, Krastev and SYPKO all handled MORE.

[Kavehisftw]

@skirts365 No, Salimi did 217 in Iran, No1 has handled more. Rezazadeh is also the best c&j of all time, look at his 263.5 WR, there was easily 5kg+ left, many people say the russians payed him not to lift more, then he had to stop because of injuries. Those athletes back then where on so much juice. They said they changed the weight classes and that's why they removed the records, but in fact they changed the doping programme aswell, and it took 20 years until some1 lifted the same. Iran ftw.

[bowlingkingpin]

What an amazing lift!

[StanleyKu]

Its ridiculous that he's pulling such a heavy weight with enough speed to still stomp his feet in a low squat.

[hgolifter68]

hes fuckin huge

[ThatDunneKid190]

@AmusingYeti yea but i want it to be in the books, as the most weight ever lifted in competition

[ThatDunneKid190]

kinda sad that the great rezazadeh got beat, but amazing lift! he needs to beat antonio's lift of 216kg

[AmusingYeti]

@ThatDunneKid190 He has if you count his unofficial world record of 217kg.

[ahmednabil]

i think he kissed him on the mouth ....

[ghostmaskBB]

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH KHOODAA = OHHHHHHHHHHH GOOD!

Translation's :D

[hayzie]

@ghostmaskBB really?

[ghostmaskBB]

@hayzie yes

[hayzie]

@ghostmaskBB awesome, thanks

[AndreaZzzXXX]

@ghostmaskBB : thank you :-)

[XxTBOMBERxX]

wait is he fat or is it abs? (im not making fun of him just asking)!!

[thebestgamerforever]

@XxTBOMBERxX fat :P

[PowerSprinter]

@XxTBOMBERxX fat. hes got crazy strong abs, just covered with a good deal of fat lmao

[RedTailedTuna]

@PowerSprinter He is a powerlifter not a body buider it is not funny that he has a higher body fat then them

[PowerSprinter]

@RedTailedTuna he is not a powerlifter. he is an olympic lifter. dont act like you are some expert when you dont even know the difference between an olympic lifter and powerlifter. And yes of course hes not a bodybuilder, never said he was, and i said he has a good deal of fat and if you dont find that funny than oh well. i think it is when talking about such an elite amazing athlete having a gut of flub. its doesnt matter in the heavyweight division so its not a knock on him

[XxTBOMBERxX]

@PowerSprinter oh ok cus its wierd

[supertoan1234]

fucking explosif...

[DanJafarian]

MASHALA!!

[pouriabakhtiyari]

Hahahahahahahaha your argument last 2 months hahaha I can't believe it man and you both make sense I enjoyed reading it

[pouriabakhtiyari]

You both read your books but kavehistwf read more

[porsche4lifeGT2]

didn't he lift the bar up off the ground a bit before he snatched it? so i assume that doesn't count as an attempt?

[IsleyNumber1]

@porsche4lifeGT2 if it passes the knees it's counted as an attempt

[jontehaag]

@porsche4lifeGT2

As long as it doesn't pass the knees it's a legit lift

[johnpb15]

by adding that warrior cry before the lift made it that much more badass.

[berryhill88]

@johnpb15 Holy shit, that gave my goosebumps for sure.

[jimmartin32]

That was awesome, what a beast!

[kingcharelsyoung29]

Fast

[mylovebarankosari]

سلامتی بهداد سلیمی

[MultiTrollHunter]

Why the fuck are people talking about hitler and religion on a goddam weightlifting video. There are like only three types of comments i should be seeing here:

Holy shit that impressive

How the fuck did he do that?

once again, holy shit that was impressive.

go take your xenophobic shit somewhere else please. I don't care where this man is from or what beliefs he has. All i know is that he just snatched a weight which the average man could only dream of deadlifting.

[XxTBOMBERxX]

@MultiTrollHunter or holy shit hes fat

[XXJOHNXXJXXRAMBO]

I am in supreme awe and admiration. What this man achieves in this video should not be humanly possible. How this is not the most viewed clip on YouTube is beyond me. Ultimate respect yo you sir Mr.Salimi. You are the strongest human being to have ever walked this earth.

[aed939]

Closing in on Krastev

[ichibanhahn]

amazing! this dude is STRONG!!!!!!!!

[justOnelove3000]

Proud to be persian :)

[shiznick2]

ahh khuda!! allah khuda!

[lilpersiancuti316]

dodododo IRAN!

[MehrabS]

Is that Hossein Rezazadeh standing beside the guy with the yellow shirt at 0:30?

[sgh248]

@MehrabS

Yup

[ehsun7b]

@MehrabS Yes, the man who hugged him is Rezazadeh. And the one in yellow is Kourosh Bagheri.

[razernagaplz]

@MehrabS ya that's him

[haal001]

@MehrabS YES, that's him!

[aram34]

@MehrabS yes he is

[MariusGuitar2007]

@MehrabS Yes!

[mikasd9]

@MehrabS yes he shook his hand after the record was set.

[behnambazmi]

@MehrabS yes. he is iran head couch cause of his great expreince. its a shame he had to quite cause of his health, but so glad that h has teached apersoto epacim.

[lkgurmer]

@MehrabS 1:41

[willpet25]

@MehrabS the commentator said it was

[PizzaCakeSteak]

@MehrabS yes, Rezazadeh is his coach.

[OneDownServer]

470lbs INCREDIBLE

[strongmanzack]

Awesome lift!

[effet]

Can you people just shut the hell up and enjoy the clip? Your constant religious drivel is why we can't have nice things...

[dotari89]

THE LORD OF THE WEIGHTS !!!

[omidool]

I got goosebumps! You can feel his outstanding power!

[ardavan2000]

hey please don't speak, see the powerful man and enjoy!

[manlycurlsDOTcom]

I am inclined to think Salimi will break his own snatch record soon.

[AKOthePERSIANkiller]

KHODA @ 1:02 MEANS = GOD  ( HE WANTS GODs HELP )

[kraitoss]

His strength must be coming from Hz.Ali by depending on the fact that he says "ALİ" while starting to lift

[TheRoyalFreshness69]

YEAAAAAH BUDDY! Reppin Iran! Barikallah! Hezar Mashallah.

[TrueRahf]

Forgot to add: He weighs roughly the same as Rezazadeh did during 2004 - 2005, but he looks healthier. Hope he can stay free of injury and continue to perform well.

[TrueRahf]

Try to keep it civil, would you? We're here to see a man take the snatch world record in weightlifting. We're not here to discuss race, politics, or any of that crap. Sport should be left out of it.

Extremely impressive by Salimi. Hope he claims the total as well as the clean & jerk soon.

[Snorouzz]

Zendeh bad Iran..Down with Islamic Republic of Iran

[BergmanMusic]

Fucking hell O.o

[aspenaspen]

Im fucking pressive

[silexent]

[75619630]

[lawrywild]

@75619630 No, didn't go above his knees.

[75619630]

@lawrywild thanks for the info,im just getting into weightlifting.

[marshalljman]

@lawrywild exactly. Rule 2.3.2

[ehsun7b]

@75619630 No, since it didn't succeeded his knees.

[DSV2013]

THIS IS WHY IM PROUD TO BE IRANIAN!

YA ALIE MAN!

KHODAAAAAAA!

[Hagholyaghin]

The 3rd Commandment: Do not use the name of the Lord your God in vain.

I urge the officers of the sports federation to pass a law to stop their athletes from blaspheming. I look forward to watching him compete in the Olympics.

[mlee30000]

@Hagholyaghin What the fuck. Is this the meaning of a free world? Also you give a shit to your commandments?

[Hagholyaghin]

@mlee30000 YES!

[mlee30000]

@Hagholyaghin No one else dose. so keep it for yourself

[TrueRahf]

@Hagholyaghin Does Islam adhere by this commandment? If not, you are actively trying to stop one religion from exercising their rights, simply because your religion does not agree. Is this what you're saying? Should he not have the right to call on the powers he has a belief in, so that he can complete his task?

I stand outside of this, as I am not a Muslim, nor a Christian. But I do notice that your comment is arrogant.

[Hagholyaghin]

@TrueRahf I'm of a high rank in the faith, and what I say comes from experience: so if you think I'm wrong then think again.

[TrueRahf]

@Hagholyaghin Islam?

If you have an issue with it. Write to IWF and let them know. Typing it out here will not yield anything.

[TrueRahf]

@Hagholyaghin Also, in which Sura can this be located?

[Hagholyaghin]

@TrueRahf You tell me!

[TrueRahf]

@Hagholyaghin The burden of evidence is on you, as I interpret it that you claimed Islam has a commandment that forbids the worshippers to utter the name of their god in vain (which I take it would be "Khoda" in Farsi).

You have yet to tell me which religion you consider yourself belonging to.

[66tomm99]

@Hagholyaghin "I'm of a high rank in the faith"

Yeah well I'm Grandmaster of the Elf people.

Just because you have been appointed some rank in a moronic cult doesn't make you right.

[Hagholyaghin]

@66tomm99 I'm afraid it does.

[66tomm99]

@Hagholyaghin Haha if you think so mate. I bet you think your god talks to you as well? So many nut jobs on this planet how the human race hasn't died out yet is beyond me...

[Hagholyaghin]

@66tomm99 Is it too much to ask to conform to the 3rd Commandment?

Or maybe you think you have to be nuts to obey this command?

[66tomm99]

@Hagholyaghin You mean "Not to take the Lords name in vain"? Well if everyone could stop believing in him then I wouldn't have to. But for as long as people stick by their belief that "My god is real because some people wrote a book about some stories they had heard from other people".

Do I think it is nuts to obey a stupid command written in a book that was CLEARLY written for ancient people who had no understanding of the world around them and craved self importants? Yes, it is fucking crazy.

[66tomm99]

@66tomm99 For as long as people stick by their beleif.... I will carry on *

[TheClutchpunch]

@66tomm99 religion is for strength my friend, if you are strong enough to live with out it than do so but you shouldn't try and stop someone believing in any religion. if they believe they believe good one them, if you think about it when it comes down to it some people just cant handle death, they are scare that when you die, you die, gone for ever no after life, nothing, just dead! so they believe in god to give them faith and help them except the inevitable.. i my self believe in aliens lol

[66tomm99]

@TheClutchpunch My qualm with the previous person was that he claimed he was of 'higher authority' simply because he was "highly ranked" in his faith.

Having a religion is fine, but claiming you are better than me or anyone else because of your religious beliefs is plain wrong.

[pantslessJeff]

Fantastic lift. I look forward to watching him compete in the Olympics.

@amooballer same here!! this is my 10 time watching it today and i still get tears in my eyes.

IRAAAAAAAANN!!!!!!!!

[amooballer]

Who the hell disliked??? Olaaagh!!!

[RapatipatooO]

Shivers when he unleashed his powers and yelling khoda!!!!

[DrP]

Wow. Just wow

[forali1]

Just a kiss. thanks that you did not mix the religion with sport. every thing in its own place!

[gunit8590]

@123kkambiz

he also said afterwards "allah" ....so what?

baba shomaha moshkgel darid...be to che oon chi mige chi nemige

[Kavehisftw]

@gunit8590 I didn't hear him say allah, tho he did say ya ali before. I really don't care tho. Sajjad screamed allah though.

[grengorism]

@Kavehisftw He did say KHODA which means ALLAH.

[Kavehisftw]

@grengorism OH REALLY? lol. The point was he was saying khoda in farsi, not arabic.

[grengorism]

@Kavehisftw Well if you would not be ignorant and would stop worshiping your language you would understand my point, meaning it doesnt matter what language he says God with.Allah is not limited to any language. aghleto estefade kon dadash intori ghagh mishi

[Kavehisftw]

@grengorism Why should I not worship my own language. Aghleto estefade kon dadas, khoda vojood nadare. Man ham ke naboodam ke goftam: Thank's for using iranian khoda. Man faghat goftam: Khoda goft, na Allah. Hence I don't believe in god, I don't know why I should expect you to want me to understand your point.

If god is almighty, can he create a stone which he can't carry himself? If yes, he isn't almighty, since he can't carry it. If no, he isn't almighty, since he can't create it.

[grengorism]

@Kavehisftw Baradar ok so you dont believe in ALLAH(GOD) but your last point is out of the scope of common sense, very strange example. Litterally and psychologically its abstract. Its as if you say if GOD cant die he is not allmighty. Ofc GOD can carry everything he is carrying the whole universe he is carrying the planetes and solar systems which are composed of stone material which is greater than giganteous in size =) lol. Thats rather almighty, vice versa would not. This is more logic.

[Kavehisftw]

@grengorism You still didn't answer my question. Can he, or can he not create something larger than universe, something so large he cannot carry it. It is not a strange example.

The reason I think me and other iranians react on "Allah" and arabic phrases, I believe derives from us being forced to believe in islam. They say islam is peace in arabic, but Abu Bakr was the first caliphate leading the army that slaughtered iranians. Zoroastrians never hurt anyone.

[TheRoyalFreshness69]

@Kavehisftw Don't let mainstream media cloud your judgement on this beautiful religion. There are fundamentalists in almost every religion; jews, christians etc. You cannot simply judge the actions of a few idiots for a religion as a whole. It doesn't make sense. I have mad love for Zoroastrians. Some of my closet friends or Zoroastrian, but it does not mean they are better than me or vice versa. Don't let Iran's dirty regime impact your decision. Religion and politics guarantee chaos.
