Talking about a powerful second pull, heh? Damn .. you can see why he’s the snatch world record holder. Not to mention his leg strength ^^
Also interesting that a jump forward is not uncommon among Iranian lifters. I wonder if this is taught on purpose or if the coaches don’t consider it a problem and don’t bother correcting it.

Russians do it also jumping forward and you are right his second pull is strong you can tell he can rack more weight
