Thanks to an ATG reader we get this video of Behdad Salimi squatting 325kg in the London 2012 training hall.
It was taken on Thursday last week, and what most impressed me was that the entire training hall stood still and watched him.
Basically, he owned the space.
On the same day prior the squat he snatched 205kg and clean & jerked 250kg.
So…. at least in theory, we will be looking at something very special night tomorrow.
… indeed we will.
Update: More Behdad Salimi videos.
Do you have videos from the training hall? Let me know!

I would love to have a gym with eleiko equipment. I got to lift with a eleiko bar once and it was amazing. They make the best equipment for strength sports.
