2008 Beijing Olympics Weightlifting +105 kg Highlights

By

I know we all have watched the epic battle of the 2008 Beijing Olympics +105 kg before.

But I had to post this highlight clip. What a great battle. It had everything you could wish for. Big lifts & big emotions. I don’t know about you, but this still gives me goose bumps.

    What a moment in sport history, human performance driven to it’s max. So sad with the death of Steiners first wife, I am honestly moved by that.  But from what I can gather from his wiki page he is now remarried, a champion like Steiner deserves all the happiness he can get!
