Russia's Chingiz Mugoshkov is one of the strongest men on the planet with incredible feats of strength including squatting 320kg/705lb for 5 and push pressing 240kg/529lb. Even with all of that, this insane save with a 230kg/507lb clean & jerk might be Mugoshkov's most impressive lift:

This is probably the most dramatic clean & jerk I've ever seen. He nearly loses it three separate times, first requiring a readjustment to get the bar in the front rack while in the hole, then nearly losing his grip on the bar while fixing his grip for the jerk, and finally fighting to save an understandably shaky jerk.

Mugoshkov is one of Russia's best super heavyweights, with a silver medal at the 2015 European Championships and fourth place at the 2011 World Championships.
