GeoegeDedaj you are saying that isnt greek ,in many interview Dimas accepts his Greek descent and if you dont trust take a look at wikipedia: ''Dimas was born in Himarë,Albania, to ethnic Greek parents...Pyrros' first name has Ancient Greek heritage in the region that he was born associated with Pyrrhus of Epirus.''
This is unbelievable technique,form and performance in general (all the things that you need to put together in order to make complete performance like this,as well as athlete like him). I hope that my touchpad still working good from taping it while I was watching this video,cause I wanted to "catch" (his) basic technique and all the finesse I can see or recognize here.... It so fast and explosive that video of 2min. took me at least 10min. to actually succeed in that idea to do it...:)
+ThubanDeneb Yeah that's insane. I know he was better at the clean and jerk than the snatch but he still set a world record in the snatch too. I think it was 188.5 kg.
If you haven't seen it yet then you need to: it's one of the best lifts ever caught on camera. He fucking push jerked it. Guy had an absolutely freakish amount of power in his hips.
This guy makes weightlifting look like art. Beautiful technique, just gorgeous.
Watching Kakhiashvili lift is like watching ballet
Definitely
Are we 100 like years away or 10 years away?
That snatch was a thing of beauty
@prsguitars92
He power jerked his Gold-winning 235 kg lift in Barcelona.
Weighed less than 90 kg at the time, too... mind-blowing.
So underrated
how is he underrated? as a triple Olympic champ and world record holder, I think he's pretty widely regarded as one of the greatest ever.
+Luc Lapierre nobody talks about him as much. I feel as if he was overshadowed by Pyrros Dimas
well theyre both considered greats in the weightlifting community. its just that people on the outside have heard of dimas much more than kakhiashvili
He is but doesn't get much respect. That's why he is UNDERrated
He gets tons of respect.
His technique is godly.
THANKYOU IRONMIND!
Kaki have the coolest set up for a snacht ever
Absolutely toys with these massive weights
#insane
That power jerk was straight up ridiculous, he made it look like it was fake plates.
I have so much more admiration for this than powerlifting. This is beautiful!
Look at that ! .. strength & precision personified -thx
Stunning technique. To keep that bar smack bang in the middle of his centre of balance and make it look easy
I'm here from zack teelander. Great videos. Thanks.
watch and learn,most technical lifter in my opinion

Kakhi kakhiashvili from Georgian

Does anyone here know if he does any other sets of squats. I feel like buying this DVD
dimas is the the elvis of lifting khaki is pavarotti!
i misspell his nme and videos like this doesn't pop up its sad because he's one of the greatest weightlifters of all time
crazy how his hamstrings TOUCH his calves when he squats
That is just fucking STRENGTH. 190 kg, nothing.
I'm just so f*ckin' impressed. Simply unreal
Only Kakhi !!!!!!!!!!
Does he use typical lifting shoes? The heel looks quite small.
Dimas is NOT albanian he was born there both his parents are Greek and his name is Greek
fyi, this guy doesn't have short legs. Check out ilya ilin. That is a guy with short legs.
RESPECT
What camera did they use to get this footage?
respect..how much would this guy weigh?
0 dislikes, the ultimate
WHO MUCH KG HE DOING SQUAT HERE?
possibly valerios leonidis?
I was willing him just to deadlift that but no, he goes and fucking snatches it! HOW?!
Ilya, Dimas, and Kakhi, all classic mesomorphs
I'm not sure about Kakhi, he could be an endomorph maybe.
Dimas is not a mesomorph. Kakhi is though
@allroundpower Given what his C&J his those squats are probably pretty light.
He clean and jerked 235 kg?! Jesus.
+Sean Cavey In 90 kg division at '92 olympics.
+ThubanDeneb Yeah that's insane. I know he was better at the clean and jerk than the snatch but he still set a world record in the snatch too. I think it was 188.5 kg.

@hobgadling13 at this time -91kg
that's 485 lbs, not 594. 594lbs=270kg

Jinxed it.

Fast and Effortless.
