Topic: Greatest Snatch in US History???

[Chris Ⓐ LeRoux]

Jim,

I thought I'd list the golden standard %s of all the American Record Snatches down to Albert Hood's 112.5 at 56. All awesome lifts! I also added Tony Urrutia's 150@75 even though Cal Shake did more in the same weight class. It still ranks real high on the list. There are surely other snatches that would rank high on the list that aren't American Records since most of these American Records probably barely beat the American Records they surpassed. Very good post Jim. Thanks!
