the 118kg was a 10kg jump from 1st and she celebrated a bit, I dont think the 121 was realistic, given the effort given to 118 , but beating Sibel Oz's european record from goyang 2009 wwc - (recently divorced, not training thus 53kg)

Erol Bilgin won 62 as I expected, similar lifts as in previous years. Clearly the best that Europe has to offer in the past couple few years with Petrosyan (RUS) now in 69.

Tomorrow Russia's 26 year old and Bulgaria's 27 year old are lifting for the first time in a European or World Championship, junior or senior. Starting their careers later in life it seems. No Dabaya in the start list.

This person http://www.youtube.com/user/lisaneu2#p/u  has some videos of the women

what i wonder about taylan, is that she finished with 118, and passed on her third attempt, if he had taken 121 she would have the world record right now, maybe she injured herself on her 118?

Here is Nurcan Taylan and her 118 kg CJ

Shaun, thank you for posting these great vids.   It has been pretty awesome to watch.   

[Shaun Le Conte]

Thanks Keith though it's somebody else that is doing all the work of putting them onto youtube.

Regarding the men's 85 kg today, close finish but I had expected Ince from Turkey to be more competitive. Don't know if he got injured after the snatch which was up there with the others.

edit: video from Akoral86 showing Izzet Ince becoming injured after the snatch
