Here is Adiran Zielinski‘s 211kg Gold Medal Clean & Jerk from the London 2012 Men’s 85kg.
Watch the determination in his eyes.
Apti Aukhadov 175kg Snatch and bits from his 210kg Clean & Jerk
Other attempts from the session:
Apti Aukhadov missing 212kg
Kianoush Rostami missing 214
Tarek Abdelazim Yehia and his 216kg attempt.
Kianoush Rostami had such an utterly defeated expression and body language after that fail…
I was really impressed by Apti, wasn’t he a replacement for an injured/banned lifter?
Yeah he was impressive.
Not really a replacement. He was just confirmed last to the team.
I didn’t think before this that man from my country will win gold 😀 you can only imagine explosion in my house when Rostami didn’t lift 214. 😀
So that was your house I heard there? 😉
Zielinski showed some great lifting, well deserved.
