    Dropped his second snatch, 196 I think, on his shoulders. He had it locked out but when he went to stand up his left arm went and it landed on his shoulders. Got up and walked it off feckin crazy.

    Checked the results there.

    Biggest snatch was 204?
    Salimi pit up 201?

    Or is the A group still going on?

    Well that was terrible.

    Best part of it was Rezezzeaaazzzadh's face as his record was in peril.

    That was disappointing. I was expecting Albegov to jerk 255 and push Salimi a bit. Ah well.
