Misha Koklyaev !!!

Amazing performance. Each of these lifts was performed in a single workout before a small crowd in a Glasgow, Scotland gym.

-270kg jerk from behind the neck (a new pr)
- 400kg deadlift x 3reps with a clean style overhand grip (and straps).
- 290kg no-hands squat (world record)
- 190kg snatch (25kg more than ever been snatched on Scottish soil before).
Who else could deadlift 400 kg. X3 and Snatch 190 kg. in the same workout?

Also a clip of Koklyaev throwing the weight for height over 19 ft. (You have to watch a bagpipe parade for a few minutes first)
This guy has competed in Weightlifting, Strongman, and some Highland Games events without particularly focusing on any of them.
He was quoted as saying "God must have kissed my head and said 'You will be a weightlifter." You think? Wow.




A little AB work!!
