does anyone know what his first two attempts were?, in the article it says

160 & 161 but that defies the two kilo rule?

There is no shortage of stories where a small business person has been hit with tens of thousands or more of legal costs from their own lawyers.Then there is the potential of having to pay for the other sides legal costs if the small business person loses

  My friend pointed out to me that there is video of him in the 2006 World Weightlifting Championships video on this site. He is extremely talented and if he hadn't injured himself he looks like he could have had a shot at the podium in beijing.
