What a great great man! Rest in peace friend. You, Rezazadeh, and Suleimanglu will go down as the greatest in weightlifting history.

Going into this event he had lost the jerk world record to Gerd Bonk who did 252.5 and looked good for more. But that was as high as Bonk ever went outside of training. But consider, Alexeev's official best was only 12 pounds more than Zackharevich who weighed around 110 pounds less. Alexeev's 2 best added up to 446 kilos, Zach's 2 best added up to 460.5. Both could have done more but Alexeev's 2 best would still be less than the smaller man's!

и это в 1976 году! и сейчас, спустя 35 лет , 255 кг в толчке это результат экстра класса, обеспечивающий олимпийское золото.
причем тогда даже грифы были другие- не так сильно пружинили, что усложняло задачу. Алексеев - суператлет на все времена

He was prepared to C&J 260Kg at this meet, but didn't need to. He was an icon from the 70's undefeated World and Olympic champ for 8 straight years, 80 official world records! R.I.P.
-
He will always be remembered as one of the greatest weightlifters in history.
Vasili will be greatly missed.
