that was sooo smooth, he didnt even lose his center of gravity.
Every time I watch this it amazes me how fast and shallow his jerk is, looks like he could of done 225kg, although he would struggle cleaning it, I think he could do it.
Yeah I see what you're saying, but at Sydney 2000 he seemed to barely power jerk 215kg, so who knows. Maybe his form was perfect here.
Perhaps he had a injury and took a lot of time off, lost a bit of strength due to aging (I know it's only 4 years but can still make a small difference) or maybe he made a tiny mistake in his jerk and had to drop lower to save it. Not sure which one, Dimas had 2-3 injuries at 2004 Olympics and maybe he started to get injuries before 2000 Olympics, but the latter is also probable since even half a centremeter of difference in a jerk at maximum weights can make a difference between missing, or completing the lift.
If he was lifting today..he would have surely lifted 225 with ease. Lifters of today are getting better training exposure.
@@herbivore5638 Don't make it more convoluted. In the power jerk/squat jerk if the bar is slightly in front or back u miss the lift. As the weights get heavier the margin of error gets smaller and smaller. So it can either look extremely easy or a complete miss. The 215 he made in Sydney was an overcorrection and overcoming that. Fucking superhuman
Dat Quads. It´s like he screams to all bodybuilders: "Fuck your leg day!!!!"
Pyrros Dimas finish 3rd in olympics 2004 at 32 years old and he said to me that 50 days before the games he had knee surgery... He is such a legend, when i feel tired or in a bad training day, i watch his videos to get better
This has to be the best clean and jerk and the most smoothest lift ever performed at Olympics.
He was born in Albania, but belongs to a Greek minority there. Both his parents were Greek and he speeks fluent Greek from his birth. He is prouder to be Greek than most Greeks, because he was born outside Greece and loves his heritage. In his early years, in Albania, he tried to watch the Greek national television channel in secret, sothat he could see images of his country.

that excitement from the crowd though!!! definitely makes ALL the difference.
For real. Life is better when you celebrate in others success instead of hoping for their failure. Didn’t mean to get all philosophical.
Watch Mark Henry Inch dumbbell video for another great crowd reaction
WTF? His feet remain on the ground as he throws about 470 pounds up like he's putting a suitcase into an overhead bin.

Raw power, I bet he felt like jumping through the roof.

i cried twice! once for Pyrros and once for the national football team, when we won Czech in the semifinal!
I will never tire of watching this. The expression on Dimas' face is one of joy and surprise in equal measure, and with the outburst from the crowd is unforgettable. What a colossal achievement.
The shot of the crowd celebrating in the background makes it so great. Imagine summoning all your strength and power to lift all that weight and seeing all those people cheering you on to succeed.
All Legs!! Sit under the barbell !! SIT!!! ...I can spent days whatching Dimas lifting, Epic.
no matter how many times i watch this clip, i am always in awe.
i admire this guy in the very deep of my heart.
This man is a serious athlete! I'm impressed.
always makes me smile seeing this. inspirational.
Το καλυτερο "σήκωμα" Στην ιστορία της άρσης βαρών.. Η τέλεια τεχνική!
What a monster! 2 1/2 times his body weight he's throwing up there. Love the celebration.
Piros Dimas one of the best Greek Athletes...

@@lq7335There is an officially recognised national Greek minority in south Albania. He is Greek.
that clean looked so heavy, he must have nailed the form perfectly.
2023 and we look back to remember those days that you made a whole nation cry from pride. Pyros you are a legend and we will always love you.
να υπενθημισω οτι το ονομα πυρρος ειναι αρχαιο ελληνικο απο τον βασιλεια της ηπειρου πυρρο εξου και πυρειος νικη το αν αργοτερα περασε σαν ονομα στους αλβανους δεν το γνωριζω αυτο που ξερω ειναι οτι σαν ονομα δεν παραπεμπει σε αλβανο αλλα σε ελληνα τωρα βεβαια το πια ειναι η πραγματικη του καταγωγη δεν εχει σημασια σαν ελληνας αγωνιστηκε και διακρηθηκε τα υπολοιπα ειναι για να γινεται κουβεντα
Οχι οτι αμφισβητω οτι ο Πυρρος ειναι Ελληνικης καταγωγης, αλλα δεν παιζει κανεναν απολυτως ρολο το τι προελευσης ειναι το ονομα του. Πολλοι αλβανοι εχουν ελληνικης προελευσης ονοματα οπως επισης και τουρκικης, για παραδειγμα εχουν το λαερτ το οποιο χρησιμοποιειται πολυ συχνα και βγαινει απο το λαερτης, το οντισε που βγαινει απο το οδυσσεας, το γκιεργκι που βγαινει απο το γεωργιος κλπ κλπ
sorry it might offended i don't speak greek but looking at the text feels like i am watching my physics book
@@pucci8727 no it's ok actually most Greeks would even be proud about it. If you would like however i could translate the text for you the guy basically explained the origin of pyros's name which comes from the Greek king of Epirus known as pyros and that he isn't sure how it ended up being used as an Albanian name and a way to doubt pyros's Greek nationality. I know that this may sound bad but trust me i believe that the guy who wrote the comment did not mean to offend anyone anyways have a nice day
Don't know why.....just can't skip his videos...truly a legend ♥️

Absolutely love this!!
"Sit under the bar, sit under the bar!", and then "SIT!!!" hahah epic
It really looked like he had as much as 220kg in him with the way he lifted that. No problem.
He’s done 223 in training supposedly by former training partners of his on his instagram if you scroll to his very first pics someone asked and he confirmed
How can you not "like" this video? Pyrros was the best Olympic Weightlifter ever!
never seen a more full extension in my life.

What was his coach telling him?
Panostechdeck Thanks! If its not too much trouble, what was Pyrros saying?
***** It's literally translated as "sit beneath the bar" but is best translated as "stay under the bar". It's spelled " Κάτσε κάτω απ'τη μπάρα ". In the begining of the video the coach says " Όλο πόδια " which means "all legs" kind of like "focus your strength on your legs. :)
Sei un grande campione!

apart makes it look like there's less leg activity. I stand corrected.

@astonrd Actually Pyrros had a unique press movement.He uses legs as squat.His coach was reminding him from the beginning "olo podia" which means take the load with your legs.Actually he did very little press with the arms.The second part after which says "katse kato apo tin bara" it means that he should come into an above the parallel squat position while pressing with the arms in order the arms to straighten .From the time that his arms are straight he lifts with the legs.Girevoy style.
want to see an epic 3rd pull... watch the chalk fly off Dimas' hands, that turnover speed is superb. This guy epitomizes O lifting to the max, explosive, quick lifts. Not to mention the fact that he makes it look so easy you'd think there weren't any plates on the bar at all.
he was a great athlete
He was on everything
Best celebration ever
this man is a LEGEND
amazing strength!
@IoannisKontosIII
I'm sure he could press overhead quite a bit strict. His front squat is 600lbs and back squat is 800lbs from what I understand. It takes a lot of strength period to make that lift along with great speed and flexibility.
beautiful
best celebration ever!!!
legs of peace.
for all the english comments, his coach said 'use your legs' and 'sit below the barbell'
Tha'ts not a barbell, it's a bar!

@Bernd Das Brötchen No he wasn't. He was being polite and trying to provide assistance to those who might have had a question to what was said in the video, in Greek. You weren't doing anything of that nature. You were being negative and and insulting and that is what you got in return.
