ROCKY 3 Facts You Didn't Know! #shorts

Did you know this in Rocky 3? During the memorable scene where Rocky body-slams Thunderlips, played by Hulk Hogan, Sylvester Stallone confessed that he couldn't actually dead-lift Hogan's weight. To overcome this challenge, Hogan jumped into Stallone's arms, creating the illusion of the powerful maneuver. Furthermore, Stallone revealed that he underwent an impressive physical transformation for the film. During the shooting, his body fat percentage dropped to an astonishingly low 2.8 percent.

Did you know, all professional wrestlers have to do this for their opponents because it’s impossible to pick up a 300 lb man that dead weights himself.

[andrewcook]

He wasn't 2.8%. Probably closer to 10% if anything

[roejogan]

Did you know that in wwe this is done every time because no one can deadlift a 6’8 315 lb man who is moving

[jagzin]

In the 80's lying about both your steroid use and body fat percentage was mandatory.

[kjherms]

It's insane how tall hogan used to be, with all the back surgeries he's lost almost a foot of height.

[prisonmike]

Hogan was a monster. 6'7" 308 lbs.

[mduckworth]

Obviously Stallone is 5'7" on a good day and hogan was 6'8" 315 at that time. Stallone is munchkin

"Nothing is too good for the MEATBALL".. Best line ever.😂😂

[dougfredricks]

Good movie and wonderful era of WWF wrestling

[lansingwoolfjr.]

Andre did the same when Hogan slammed him

[michaelmckenzie]

Lugar put The Big Show in the torcher rack and slammed Yokozuna back in the day too!

[stevieWilliams-ib]

It would have been hilarious when he yelled at Adrian if Adrian Adonis ran in the Ring! ( Imagine what I could do to you)

[eriktorres]

Even a bodybuilder who is insanely shredded and look way more cut than Stallone and are completed water depleted don't get to 2.8%

[staple_boi]

As a kid I was surprised by sheer size difference between the two.

[c.l.freeman]

Hogan was holding a lot of his weight with his hand on Sly's shoulder. When a wrestler bodyslams another the one being slammed will push off on the opponents thigh making it easier

[RaidingJaguarX]

Did you know that what HH did is what they call in wrestling “posting up” so Sylvester Stallone could lift HH up and over the top rope. 😊👍

[josephbarone]

That is exactly the way they do it in wrestling

[sweyn]

That's how they do it in wrestling. You think these dudes would be able to slam each other without help. You can always see the person receiving the slam jumps into the others arms or posts off their leg to help aid them in picking them up

[raidchaser]

Thunderlips introduction:"Thunderlips is here. The ultimate MALE vs the ultimate MEATBALL" & "I can't break your spirit but I SURE CAN break your back"!

[djraven]

Another fact. Stallone weighed about 160 pounds in this movie making him a middleweight. To be a heavyweight boxer you must weigh over 200 pounds.
