477.5 kgs - Danielyan - Highest Contest Weightlifting Total of All-Time

In this rare footage, Ashot Danielyan puts together the largest total ever lifted (477.5 kgs) in a weightlifting meet at a domestic competition in Armenia—thus this is NOT an official IWF world record. The performance does, however, exceed Taranenko and Rezazadeh's greatest competition totals. We all know that on occasion unofficial lifts done in domestic competitions max exceed the IWF world records: some good examples are Salimi's 217kg snatch and Sypko's 216.5kg snatch. What is unusual here is that footage exists of the lifts. Danielyan was busted for doping in 2000, which may explain why many of his IWF sanctioned performances were less dazzling than this one.

1. and his mother and 2 cousins in the stands go wild!
2. Proud to be Armenian like him ❤💙💛
3. with doping offcource
4. Which competition is this? It doesn't look like an international one, otherwise Danielyan's lifts would have been mentioned in Lift Up Top Lists!
5. On the 250 kg jerk drive he just whipped the bar a little and up it went.
6. The lowest amount of weight he lifted that day was a 200kg snatch. Now let that one sink in for a moment.
7. Is he drugfree?
8. I'm glad you actually know how much is 477 kg
   So he lifted twice as much as the worlds best?
   Who is it the yeti?
9. None of the supers are clean!
10. song ffs?
11. How many cookies do you need too lift that babe?
12. I love how the right judge stands and applauds
13. Молодец
14. Disgustingly strong
15. соревнования не зачетные и без допинг контроля. катлеты наверно метаном посыпали..
16. Poor Taranenko his records were nullified as a result many recent lifters never heard of him.
    What happened to him today he is virtually a cripple like so so many in weightlifting.
    See his comments inLiftUp!
17. Where did u see "lbs" instead of "kg's"? It's kilograms. It logically cannot be "lbs" because if it were lbs the weight would be too litte for his category.
18. Beast
19. Lbs isn't translated as "kgs". So that's a great mistake in the head.
20. This guy was tested by WADA - dopping positiv!!!
