The way he looks at left side and d right side while lifting is so badass

16 years competing and winning at the Olympic level. freaking stellar. winning a national lottery would probably be easier.

Undoubtedly the most badass weight lifter of all time. 4 medals in 4 Olympics & 3 Golds + 01 Bronze even when he was not fully recovered from a knee injury. That is Superman stuff.

One of the most underrated and greatest sport legends

[gutz]

If I remember correctly, it was said by him and his trainer that we was past his prime come the 2004 games and was not expecting to win Gold that year. But being the games were held in Greece, he had to compete to win at least a medal for himself and Greece.

He just wanted to show up in front of his countrymen in Olympics.
Guy was not only aging but facing injuries too. Massive respect!

Deepest respect to legend for his consistent performance of 16 years...

16 years is not a joke to be continuously in prime and have Medal in Worlds Top Event...

True Legend...

Don't know why he is not to the level of popularity he actually deserves...

[jorgeferreira]

A guy that participates in 4 Olympics is already worth of huge respect. To win 4 (1 in each Olympic game) medals, where 3 are of gold ... WOW!
Congratulations.

[JustBboying]

I'm not Greek and don't know much about weightlifting either, but I still find this video so awesome, uplifting and motivational. Pretty much the same feeling when I saw Bolt or Phelps.

He was using the line on his head 11 years before it became a trend.
