The fat handle makes the lift from the ground to the shoulder a significant part of the challenge. This is no record.

Not clean lift
-
Is he trying to limbo?
-
@Weh1921 Ahrens was a beast but how thick were the handles? That is what makes this so hard if he was actually cleaning it.
-
Savickas can do this for reps and without leaning back and with no leg drive. Be careful with that word "world".

I could have read a newspaper in the length of time it too this guy to find the "groove" to get these dumbells up.
Chuch Ahrens pressed a pair of 225 pounders in 1965. Google up up "Lesser Known Strongmen of the 1950s and 1960s" and read about it.

This guys leaning back reminds me of the disbanded Olympic press of the early 1970s where presses of well over 500 were doen yet no one could military 400.

173 x 2 = 346

i woulda laughed if he knocked that dude out right after he lifted them
this is a lot of crap,the hard part of lifting dumbells is the clean,even more so with the inch bumbell,with the thick bar,Bill Kazmaire clend 2 x 165lbs and pressd them 5 times,then 2 x 175lbs and pressd them 1 time it took him 3 atemps to get them to the shoulders,I tryed doing this with them hanging from a squat rack,made it very easy to life much more than I could clean and press.Zavicas or Kaz at he's best could press them like that at least 5-10 times

the whole point of these dumbbells was to clean them from the floor then press, and nobody has ever done that yet
