Two great videos (links originally posted on SDF) showing the story of the heavyweights at Sydney 2000:

Snatch


Clean and Jerk


I wish it was that competetive these days, as far as I know Rezazadeh totally dominates. Watching a battle like that at next years Olympics would be brilliant.

The 272.5 attempt by Chemerkin was crazy stuff, I think he should have just gone for a WR in the lift instead of a ridiculous attempt in order to win it.

It also struck me that Salem looked way more muscular and stronger than in recent footage from the Asian Games.

Yes, the competition has really fallen off since then. IIRC correctly Rezazadeh won the last World Champs with 202/246.
