''My most painful moment was losing to Lee Priest.'' -Ronnie Coleman Do you think Lee should have placed higher in the Mr. Olympia? Comment your thoughts 🤔👇
Lee placed better than Ronnie in five shows in 1997. He looked insane! You could've made an argument for him placing higher at almost every Olympia he had ever competed in. Hard to say if he was robbed of an Olympia win tho, the 90s were just stacked with amazing bodybuilders.
Being a guy who is 5.3, Lee Priest and Jeff Nippard are my hero's. Going my entire life having people disparage my existence due to something that is beyond my control only to see people like Jeff and Lee really own and conquer it is truly inspiring.
lol i hate that feeling bro. I have no control over how i look..i wish i could be taller more muscle and better looking but the world didnt make me that way. I love Lee he make tall bodybuilders look not so impressive as him :)
If some of today’s competition could bring something half as good as this consistently Open bodybuilding would be saved imo. The fact that so many competitors nowadays just go for all out mass instead of the aesthetic is part of the reason why I believe more people are getting excited for the Men’s Physique and Classic Physique divisions nowadays. In my view, the only Mr Olympia to have won in Open Bodybuilding over the last 5 years that was aesthetic was Shawn Rhoden.
Man I remember seeing him in a magazine posing in that superman costume when I was a little kid thinking this guy had the most unbelievable physique I'd ever seen. That was almost 20 years ago and I've never been as impressed. Sure there are bigger guys with more mass, but his proportions and dimensions and cuts are crazy, the fact he can look the way he did off season and still get shredded and contest ready in a few months is absolutely insane.
I seen him back in the day when i buy magazines from the store. I saw lee priest picture and hang it up on my wall. Always wanted arms like him. He is one of my favorites. Cool name too lee priest
@@bobsap1723 he also had no glutes and no back and was soft all over. Bodybuilding is a sport with rules and judging criteria. You win poses and through poses you win points= title. Lee was 5"3, narrow and soft. He was getting dwarfed and destroyed on stage, please open your eyes
A super freak of epic proportions. They were the best days! All the greats and Lee was one of them. Always says it how it is and did it his way. Best ever from Australia. No one else has come close to Lee from down under!
Lee and I are the same age. He has inspired me for 30 years. I am a very strong and fit 50 year old thanks to a man I have never met. Thank you Lee for all the motivation 🙏
4:47 is it? Because whoever edited this video destroyed Lee's words real quick. Take a good look, Yates in his worst poses with a torn tricep and bicep is dwarfing Lee. So is Dillet.
@@dj_m19 my man, there is a reason he was called Giant Killer! OG Arnold himself said it: he's one of those shorter guys but still managed to keep symmetry and proportion! One of my all time favourite
@@dj_m19 His physique was way way better than Yates, Yates was bigger yes and maybe better conditioned at his best but Lees body was way more better looking, symmetry. lines. muscle bellies, small waist with amazing abs. far superior in my opinion
@@aestheticperfection9349 is that why Lee never placed inside top 5 while Yates won 6 Mr. Olympias in a row? Keep being in denial. Yates is one of the greatest ever, Lee is a nobody in comparison
I think Lee Priest would've made an amazing movie villain looking at his appearance... I mean he's just the blonde, huge giant killer that drives a Hummer and works out in a sleeveless dressshirt
Brilliant. Just brilliant. I LOVE Lee's approach and personality. Works his arse off. Zero bullshit. No politics. Add in a bit of Jim Hellwig and you've got a super motivating vid. Top marks Nick. Thanks for the epicness!!!
Rivedere, adesso, questi campioni degli anni '90 mi emoziona. Lee Priest, con la qualità muscolare che aveva - massa, definizione, simmetria - nelle competizioni odierne, verrebbe incoronato Mr.Olympia a vita!
The real "Man of steel"!!! 💪🔥☠ Thanks to Lee i allways know: "The other ones are just tall...but not bigger and better then me!" And i will keep on fightin until i become a Giant-Killer like he was! 💪 Lee Priest is the best! 🔥💪
Lee Priest has always been my favorite there's just something about his physique I thought was much better than anyone else this the only guy I ever seen with an 8-pack
I can totally agree with this statement. Some of the greatest genetics in bodybuilding history. His symmetry and proportions were insane. Even when the dude was 20, he was crazy-looking, very aesthetic. He recently became my fave after watching him a lot. I have no doubt that if height wouldn’t have been a contributing factor, he would’ve most-likely won at the Olympia
Lee would have been the king of 212 and would def put guys like flex lewis, drek lundsford, into retirement. Too bad they didnt have the 212 division back in the day, but none of the 212 guys of today would have a chance competeing in the open especially during the 90s, a well earned name the giant killer aka the blonde myth !

@@victoralvarez3042 Yes, 90's was most competitive era. Insane physiques, just like Flex and Lee and Kevin.
He deserved it
Best arms of all times period. So much muscles packed on such a small frame, he truly was the Blond Superman
His forearms are on another level
Have you heard of Phil Heath bro? Better balance better detail better seperation.

@@helixgaming9058 Get away from the glue sniffing buddy. No comparison, Lee smokes him
Lee Priest.."Use The Word Tall Not Big!"...💪👍
😄😂🤣
Confidence and self realisation put him there
It's very true he had bigger measurements than them. That is unreal.
@King Croc gotta be a freak
Never shortly bodybuilder win by mr. O after Columbu.

@@el-nd3vu instead of laughing u should give him some height bro
@@el-nd3vu congratulations, you won 2022's dumbest comment.
This guy will smoke today's bodybuilders especially the ones competing in the 212 category. Such a muscular ashthetic body. "Muscles with beauty"
i totaly agree with you
the modern day bodybuilder are all pregnant
He looked insane, great midsection too. He’d demolish today’s lineup

too short it sucks
@@JeffPLutsucks for you clown
Didn't need to.
@@adamwilkinson6721Yeah still a winner of many great competitions and the Blonde Myth
NO TO ABUSE OF WOMEN, LEE PRIEST WIFE ABUSER ❌❌🤮🤮❌❌
Pound for pound the best bodybuilder ever. He was making taller guys look smaller in some poses. A physique we will never see again like Coleman.
Franco is up there, too
@Royer Maldonado you guys always point about his gut but not talking about his massive legs glutes back chest arms
Or Jay Cutler when he finally got over the hump and becam Mr. Olympia himself
Flex Wheeler was.
A huge différence with coleman : his physic was looking aesthetic.
3:35 those abs are just perfection
Shocking. Mass and class. One of the best physiques of all time.
Those arms and calves are next level
"...tall, not big..." - what a powerhouse. Man's a total inspiration.
What a legend. The symmetry & density he brought was impeccable.
Lee Priest in his Prime was AWESOME.

Unfortunate his height held him back from winning an Olympia, one of my favourite physiques ever.
his is a goal Physique . Idk how you get much better than that .... the judges just wanted the freaks . He had a perfect 8 pack and could vacuum pose
and king coleman

Lee Priest...one of the best arm structure/definition of all tiiiiime!
This dude makes me proud of being short! 🔥
He’s the best
one the of the best physiques ever on the bodybuilding stage 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
He's one of the living legends of bodybuilding. And also one of the best and most well defined muscular people in the whole wide world . 🇺🇸
"Use the word TALL, NOT BIG." 🔥🔥🔥
Lee will always be my fav bodybuilder.
More Lee videos please🙏
Brutal guy, brutal genetics! What a beast!
Real guy too
2:20 the forearms!! One of the best vids I have seen.
Cobra pose 👍
I am gaining muscle just by watching him exercise. Great bodybuilder!
Lee is like Bumblebee among the giant autobots. He brings in his big canons. Phenomenal arms, definitely one of the best arms ever.
A super freak of epic proportions.
They were the best days! All the greats and Lee was one of them.
Always says it how it is and did it his way. Best ever from Australia. No one else has come close to Lee from down under!
Lee and I are the same age. He has inspired me for 30 years. I am a very strong and fit 50 year old thanks to a man I have never met. Thank you Lee for all the motivation 🙏
I know Lee personally, and I'll pass on your message mate.
Don't get Big, get massive!
Keep it up .
Proportionally lee is the best bodybuilder I've ever seen.
If there was 212 back then this guy would have dominate
Fr, especially considering he placed top 10 consistently in men’s open!
Yes, 212 is perfect for lee priest
Dominate would be an understatement he'd eat them alive
lee is legend bro
Arguably the best arms in the history .. 💪💪He's got canons🔥 when others got guns
"Use the word tall, not big"
Holy shit, this is probably the most savage quote I've ever heard

Lee Priest is a monster 👿
3:15 just look at his biceps flexing. Amazing
loving the longer format centered around 1 person
One of the greatest Bodybuilders ever and totally undervalued back in the day. Incredible. Absolutely incredible.
From the neck down, he's the real-life representation of Wolverine from the comic books. Wolverine was a short ball of muscle.
7:38 and pause WTF THESE ARMS
Brilliant. Just brilliant.
I LOVE Lee's approach and personality. Works his arse off. Zero bullshit. No politics.
Add in a bit of Jim Hellwig and you've got a super motivating vid.
Top marks Nick. Thanks for the epicness!!!
Goosebumps! Jesus!
Awesome work!
🙏
Lee really started getting back into shape a few months after this video came out. He must have inspired himself 🤔 legend 🔥
immaculate conditioning, extraordinary arms, chest and shoulders, salute the man!
My all time favourite. Those friend double biceps, man those were guns 🔥
Guns? More like cannons!
Most symmetrical abs in bodybuilding ever... Also sickest arms and forearms ever. And the dude calves were actually huge
1:52 wtf is that. He is the goat
He got muscles on his muscles
His humble attitude towards being a pro is really incredible. Lee was and still is an absolute beast. Perfect bodybuilder genetics.
Hands down the best body builder of all time.
My favorite body builder. Lee, my man.
Rivedere, adesso, questi campioni degli anni '90 mi emoziona. Lee Priest, con la qualità muscolare che aveva - massa, definizione, simmetria - nelle competizioni odierne, verrebbe incoronato Mr.Olympia a vita!
By far the best presentation of Lee priest .......
The depth of muscles are insane
Uncrowned Mr Olimpia...... chapeau
He's so complete !
So amazing to see Ronnie and Lee in the same shot posing at the same time. Showing that height is no issue if you maintain your frame. Very inspiring.
The real "Man of steel"!!! 💪🔥☠
Thanks to Lee i allways know: "The other ones are just tall...but not bigger and better then me!"
And i will keep on fightin until i become a Giant-Killer like he was! 💪
Lee Priest is the best! 🔥💪
His muscles are from another planet. Nobody else like him.
Lee Priest has always been my favorite there's just something about his physique I thought was much better than anyone else this the only guy I ever seen with an 8-pack

At his peak probably the best front shots of all time. Just incredible.

One of the greatest physiques of all time!💪🏻👊🏻🙏🏻🦾💥💯❗️
Lee showed a short guy we can get in gym and have a nice physique too. Great inspiration for me.
Fitting video tribute to yet another underrated early bodybuilding great.
My favorite bodybuilder of all time.
Amongst the greatest genetic phenom in the history of bodybuilding
Genes to take care of and spread
His abs are perfection!
And i was feeling short with 1.73m. This guy is a beast!
I’m 180cm and I would gladly give up 15-20cm to have the freak genetics and muscle bellies of Lee 😅🤷♂️
One of the best physics ever seen.
Most shredded monster in several competitions, with insane arms and chest.
Best arms of all time imo
Those are some godly proportions.
All the drops 🔥🔥🔥 Epic vid. Can't wait to train with this playing in the background
1+
The best bodybuilder and i’ve seen the only one body builder who really really have balance muscle left and right!!! Lee priest!!!
Most impressive physique in bodybuilding history
Lee is amazing...everytime i c him in my Arnolds Encyclopedia on bodybuilding i always said to my self "this guy has the best overall body"
BEAST MODE video brother!!!!
Hats off to him much respect 🫡
Lee's arms top 3 all time - EASY. Maybe even number 1
Arnold, Kevin and Phil

Perfect convergence of size, symmetry and proportion.....

Lee Priest: giant killer
Franco Columbu: hold my beer..
Now imagined, in another parallel universe, he’s 6FT and won 12 consecutive times of Mr. O
The game changed ayy
