Are Ogryns objectively the most orky humans?

within warhammer?
>Yeah
Outside of warhammer?
>Nah
Orks (like all non-human races) are based on various aspects of humanity that have been exaggerated.
professional and hobbyist Engineers IRL are the closest to orks that you can get. I think.

Soccer holigans m8.
Also DIGGA NOBZ.

Commissar Yarick is the most orky human there is and he's no ogryn
>>53723245
But that's because he spent some time as a POW in ork territory and learnt their culture and customs in the meantime, while also learning Orkish from an ork prisoner. He made himself as orky as a human can become; ogryns are as orky as a human can be born.
>>53723245
This, I'm not entirely convinced that Commisar Yarick isn't actually an ork.
>>53723156
Diggas are orkier but theoretically an Ogryn Digga would be orkier still

The Orks believe him to be a champion of Gork, or maybe it was Mork, and so he is.
He doesn't need to worship them to gain their blessing, the Orks do that for him.

I'd say mursi warriors are the orkiest

Sauce on that?
They really aren't. They have similarly memes speech impediments but in terms of attitude not at all. There may be some surface similarities in their behavior but as noted they come from completely different motivations.

Implied fluff, really.
Orks think he is unkillable, and Yarrick hasn't died yet.
Orks think he can kill ya with his eye, so he got a cybereye implanted that shoots lasers out of it.
etc, etc

I don't think that's how it works. This "orks believe it, then it works" is not that powerful, and I don't it affects things outside the orks environment.
Yarrick hasn't died yet? That's called "plot armor", anon.
Orks started saying he can kill with his gaze? Maybe AFTER he got the bionic eye, not before.
Don't get me wrong, Yarrick is one of the coolest, manliest characters in 40k, and it's cool that he's become a sort of folk figure in ork culture, but that's something completely different from saying orks think of him as an envoy of the orkish gods.
Ya seeh, thinkin' dat iz un-orky.
