The only thing they did have that most of us today don't is actual, truly organic and non-gmo foods. I have to think that is part of how they were able to accomplish these amazing feats. All the strongman guys of today are FAT, but these old-school guys accomplished extreme strength while maintaining incredibly low body fat. Its amazing they were able to accomplish the bodies and strength they did totally natural, "freaks" or not.

    Would you do one on Hermann Georner he went to the same club as Arthur Saxon and was crazy strong too although less talked about.
    At Dresden on 25 July 1920, Görner lifted the enormous weight of nearly 200 kg (440 lb) overhead in the Two Hands ‘Anyhow’ style, performing the feat with four kettleweights in the following manner. He first swung with the right hand to arms length, two kettleweights, one weighing 110 1⁄4 pounds (50.0 kg). and the other 99 1⁄4 pounds (45.0 kg). Still holding the bells overhead, he then bent down and picked up with the left hand a third kettleweight weighing 110 1⁄4 pounds (50.0 kg), which he then swung to arms length and transferred to the thumb of the right hand. Then, still holding the three kettleweights overhead in his right hand, he lowered his body carefully and with the left hand picked up the fourth kettleweight, which he slowly swung to arms length. The combined weight then held overhead for the referee’s court was, as has been stated, no less than 430 English pounds, or 195.5 kilograms.
    Still has the one hand deadlift to this day which is really impressive.

    • @oxtheunlikelycontemplator2682
      @oxtheunlikelycontemplator2682 3 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      That's not a fair assessment. Yes he was a showman but people forget that strongman shows were very niche and you had to be something of a showman to come up with feats that people could relate to but still awe at (as was stated in the video) but the man legitimately set world records and he's still come closer than anyone else to equaling Saxon's bent press Sandow's highest officiated weight for that lift was 330 pounds and it was 360 for Saxon. That's pretty damn close to be saying Samdow was all show and Saxon was the genuine article. It took a young George Hackenschmidt to break Sandow's record for the one hand overhead press. And George had any where from 15 to 20 lbs. of muscle on Sandow.

      @@strengthhistory1936 actually on (on December 12th,1905) he bent pressed 371 lbs with his right hand at Stuttgart which is his official record . And in the year 1906 at the school of William Bankier (Apollo) in London's West End, Saxon put up 386 lbs--on the third attempt--using a thoroughly awkward arrangement consisting of a barbell with various kettlebells tied to each end, at a bodyweight of 205 lbs. Although not an official lift, it was witnessed by Bankier, 'Health and Strength' editor John Murray, Wilhelm "Bill" Klein, and Saxon's brothers, Hermann and Kurt. So 371 lbs is his best offical bent press and 386 is his best unofficial bent press

    Gaman Pehlwan and his Grave | گاماں پہلوان اور اسکی گمنام قبر | #Vlogumentary | Saad Zahid
    گاماں کا مختصر تعارف:
    “رستمِ زماں” گاماں پہلوان کا اصل نام غلام محمد بخش تھا اور انکا تعلق امرتسر سے تھا۔ وہ قدیم فنِ پہلوانی کے بانیوں میں سے تھے۔ 1910ء کو انہیں جنوبی ایشیائی سطح پر ورلڈ ہیوی ویٹ چیمپئن شپ کے اعزاز سے نوازا گیا تھا۔ مہاراجہ آف دتیہ گاماں کو روزانہ 2 بکرے، 3 سیر مکھن، 6 گیلن دودھ، 3 ٹوکریاں پھل، اور 20 پاؤنڈ بادام کی سردائی فراہم کرتا تھا۔ وہ روزانہ 5000 بیٹھکیں اور 3000 ڈنڈ لگاتا تھا۔
    انکا چھوٹا بھائی امام بخش قد کے لحاظ سے ان سے لمبا تھا۔ سنہ 1910 میں ایک شخص گاما اور امام بخش کو اپنے ساتھ یورپ لے گیا اور یہاں انکا مقابلہ "زبسکو" نامی ایک پولش پہلوان سے ہوا جسے ہرا کر انہیں ’رستم زماں‘ (ورلڈ ہیوی ویٹ چیمپئن شپ) کا خطاب ملا۔
    سنہ 1947 میں گاما پہلوان کا خاندان لاہور کے علاقے موہنی روڈ پر منتقل ہو گیا۔ مشہور زمانہ مارشل آرٹ کھلاڑی اور اداکار بروس لی بھی گاماں پہلوان سے متاثر تھے، انھوں نے اپنی کتاب ’دی آرٹ آف ایکسپریسنگ ہیومن باڈی‘ میں گاما پہلوان کی ورزش کا تفصیلی ذکر کیا ہے۔ اسکے علاوہ سڑریٹ فائٹر گیم میں ڈارن مسٹر (Darun Mister) کا کردار بھی گاما پر بنایا گیا ہے۔
    گاماں کی گمنام قبر:
    گاماں 23 مئی 1960 کو اس دنیا سے رخصت ہوئے۔ انھیں لاہور میں پیر مکی مزار کے قریب قبرستان میں دفن کیا گیا۔ یہ مختصر سا قبرستان آج مکمل طور پر آبادی میں گھر چکا ہے۔ اس کے دروازے پر تالہ لگا ہوا ہے، اسی باعث آپکو دیوار پھلانگ کر اندر جانا پڑتا ہے۔ بالکل سامنے ہی آپکو رستم زماں گاماں پہلوان اور انکے چھوٹے بھائی امام بخش پہلوان کی قبریں نظر آتی ہیں۔ گاماں کی قبر پر سورت رحمان کی یہ آیات لکھی گئی ہیں : ۔۔
    كُلُّ مَنْ عَلَیْهَا فَانٍۚۖ(۲۶)وَّ یَبْقٰى وَجْهُ رَبِّكَ ذُو الْجَلٰلِ وَ الْاِكْرَامِۚ(۲۷)
    جبکہ کتبے پر ایک نظم پڑھی جاسکتی ہے:
    اٹھ گیا آج وہ شہزور غیور
    تھا زمانے میں جو رستم مشہور
    جس کے اک پنجہ فولاد کی ضرب
    توڈ دیتی تھی شجاعوں کا غرور
    وطنِ پاک کا فن کار عظیم
    اسکے فن کا ہے جہاں میں مذکور
    وہ نہیں زندہ مگر ذندہ ہے
    اسکی تعلیم ، ہنر، اس کا شعور
    دوسری جانب امام بخش کی قبر پر سورت فاتحہ دیکھی جاسکتی ہے۔ بدقسمتی سے ماضی کے ان عظیم پہلوانوں کی قبریں عقبی جانب سے کھل چکی ہیں جن کے باعث ان میں باقاعدہ طور پر بارش کا پانی داخل ہو رہا ہے۔ ۔۔۔۔۔۔😢👆🏿😢
