Not that it’s really possible to do so but this is our attempt to slow down 20 year-old @luisjavierhd16 ’s (-69kg, Colombia) record-breaking performance from the 2015 Junior Pan Ams where he snatched up to 150kg/330lb. This was shot originally at 240fps and we slowed it down to about 47% of that speed in post production. So that means this is slowed down over 20 times from real speed! We’ll do something similar soon with his C&Js. Check out our recent videos for some real-time footage of him or check our YouTube/Facebook for a much longer video with more looks and a longer video.

17 year-old Khetag Khugaev (-94kg, Russia) delivering the biggest breakthrough performance in weightlifting since Om Yun Chol at the 2012 Olympics. He snatched 180kg/396lb and C&Jed 219kg/483lb, went 6/6 and very nearly won the European senior title all while weighing in light in the 92s. This is about 8 months after winning the Youth Olympic Games with 164/191 at -85kg. Amazing! Prior to this he was a “star of the future” in my book but this puts him firmly in the mix with the best in the world at the senior level and he still has over 2.5 years to go in his junior career. Longer videos with more attempts and slow motion as well are on the hookgrip YouTube and Facebook pages. And yes he made the snatch where he was walking. (at Tbilisi Sports Palace)

He also nearly made 197kg/434lb – there was just a slight pressout on the jerk.
