You might have heard of Simon Martirosyan from the Youth Olympics earlier this year when he attempted to break his own Snatch record and set a new Clean and Jerk record. Today at his first senior worlds championships he sets a new world record snatch. He made a gutsy attempt at breaking the total world record by 6kg by making a 220kg clean and jerk but failed both attempts on the jerk.
