He came along just at the wrong time for him - the judges went full ‘mass monster’ after Yates’s 1993 Olympia appearance, then guys like Francois, Fux, Nasser, Dillet etc took over...Charles should’ve done what Levrone and Cormier did and put on just enough to hang with the mass-monsters, wouldn’t have taken much, maybe an additional 10-15lbs but as he said in the video he never really went above contest weight which made putting on any kind of size tricky.
Great video, nice and clear. Seeing the contestant this close up makes it a better experience. Historically, very few bodybuilding shows of that era had good quality coverage. This is rare.
charles clairmonte stellare,in assoluto uno dei piu'bei fisici ,addominali come pochi ,tirato ,linee bellissime,grosso ed estetico,altro che quei manzi coi ventroni che giravano all'epoca,oggi ancora peggio...
Before Dorian Yates and Milos experiments with HGH + INSULIN that cleary destroyed the lines and the tiny waist plus the grainy carved muscle and striations. The years UNTIL 1994 were amazing and that is why earlies and mid 90s were consider the second golden age of bodybuilding
@@adrianperkins7599 Funny back then I was a kid at 160LBS ...looking at these guys with 18-20 inch arms .. after 35 years of working out mine are 21.5 ...and I sill think I'm small compared to my memories of old pro's
wow right before he tore his pec but u can tell how much fuller he looked in the chest, i wonder sometimes if he had never torn it, would it have been enough to win the O ?
5th place should have been 3rd. And CHarles won every pose except the rear lat spread. Milos from behind was smooth. Ron Love looked great. Didnt Ray McNeil get killed by his wife ?
I mean open bodybuilding before 2003 where Ronnie Coleman surpass the mark of 280 pounds should never exceeded the 245-255 pounds for a 5 11 plus athlete NEVER. In 2003-2004 -2005 we saw a clearly MK Ultra Type experimentation with IGF 1, Insulin dosages increased with GH and whatever substance on earth, producing the horrible and unpleasant look of Pregnat muscular men #kevinlevrone was out of this world #ifbbcharlesclairmonte OMG

Spoiler!
Charles was one of the most conditioning bodybuilders and asthetic pleasing in that era.
Charles amazing like stone, Levrone amazing, Ron Loves delts were really great too, Sonny amazing, so many greats.
Well deserved win Charles. The hardest and best shaped up there! Double bicep shot most impressive with the best arm split both front and back!
RIP Sonny Schmidt ❤🙏
The soundtrack to this vhs is amazing.
This lighting combined with the analog tube video is incredible or these guys all had amazing aesthetic physiques.
Charles should have won Olympia in the 90's
Definately...amazing aesthetics👍

Charles came to IFBB from NABBA, that was the main reason he was overlooked...
@@jamesgallagher1992 He was too small
Yeah totally - dude had it all.....beautiful lines, rock-hard conditioning, fluid posing, charismatic - commanding stage presence etc.
i dont think people realise how good charlie clairmonte was and could have been
Charles Clairmont man of steel love you sir 💪💪💪❤️❣️💘❣️💚❤️

Roberto had striations in his AB’s! Crazy

Ray McNeil God rest he's soul
Well deserved very underated backbin the day
Shocking how small they were back then ... but HUGE in our memories
Huge size difference but the conditioning is far superior , and they all seem to have decent calf muscles then lol

@George Clooney I think he means compared to the likes of big Ramy but I preferred the 90s look , well early 90s
@George Clooney Today the pro's are 30-50lbs bigger than back then.
@@adrianperkins7599 that's not true
Danke Milos für die Stunde posing Unterricht beim Center Schardt ❤
Wow if these guys were competing today they’d literally be Classic Physic.
They’d be far too heavy.
Thank you for posting this
Men of steel!
wow right before he tore his pec but u can tell how much fuller he looked in the chest, i wonder sometimes if he had never torn it, would it have been enough to win the O ?
Levrone has , along with Arnold , the best and fuller side chest in history in bb
Great result.
Great post👍👍👍
Sehr coole, klare Aufnahmen!
Levrone in amazing shape, the waist is so small. Looks like Arnold but with better arms.
And has shoulders
5th place should have been 3rd. And CHarles won every pose except the rear lat spread. Milos from behind was smooth. Ron Love looked great. Didnt Ray McNeil get killed by his wife ?
Right, I could see ray Mc Neil in the 93 spanish Grand prix and his wife was so big (if not more) as him.
So good!!
Milos english skills same 1993 as it it today 😅
What was Milos Sarcevs song on his pousing routine?
Harold Faltermeyer - The Running Man - Soundtrack, The Theme From Terminator 2 (Bass Bumpers Remix)
Perfect physiques
What happened..
Not a weak calve in the room,,,,,unlike today.
I will never understand what Ray McNeil was doing with his hair back then.
Levron song posing?
grace jones slave to the rhythm mix
Schmidt deserved 2/3 place
Клармонт хорош, а Леврон и Сарцев еще не набрали обороты.
Milos would have placed much higher in his career, but he incorporated too much volume in his training.
kevin estaba lleno de liquido retencion mal
🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🌷❤😙😚🇲🇽

Sonny debió quedar 3
The back drop to the stage was horrible...
Levrone fuori forma...
Keven is a bit soft. Great era. When bodybuilders and there physics where attainable and they weren't dying at 24
