Vasily Alexeev dies at 69



Above his 562 Clean and Jerk at the Montreal Olympics, where he won the gold. In his career he set 80 world records.

Below is his 66th world record! Something for this 666 market!

Alexeev broke the impossible'500 Pound Clean & Jerk Barier' at Ohio State University in 1970 and he didn't stop going. The reason that he set over 60 world records instead of going to the top (which would have been over 600lbs.) was that the Soviet Union paid the athletes nearly $10,000 for each world record. The young mining engineer became a millionaire overnight with very calculated financial investments.Biophysics scientists had stated that the human body could not possibly reach the 500lb. mark. Meet officials, Bruce Barnes and John Kovach, had just carried the famous pro-wrestler, Ken Patera, off of the heavily damaged platform with a severe compound fracture of the right ankle while workers repaired the floor surface and the underlying stage structure. Various groups had tried to have olympic weightlifting banned due to the many injuries and deaths of athletes in the past and it had been compared to the bullfights of Spain with demented fans waiting for the prolonged and bloody killing of the bull. The bar was loaded to 502 lbs. and engineers verified the structural integrity of the building and stage, with the calm Alexeev being observed by 5,000 quiet spectators.Kovach was quoted as saying, "The steel bar bent severely in two artistic movements, the metal plates rang out amidst silence and after three seconds of balancing at eight feet above the high stage the bar stopped for the required moment followed by the crashing impact that shook the Earth! This time the bull won and continued onward for another decade." Vasily Alexeev will be deeply missed by his family and will be remembered as an Warier of Peace during the Cold War Era.et cum spiritu tuo`
