To lift a nation

Talk about missing the story... Did this guy even watch the event? This competition was one of THE moments of the games for me. Matthias Steiner of Germany won the gold with a clean and jerk 10 kilos heavier than his personal best. Still grieving after the recent death of his wife. Steiner post lift celebrations was one of the rawest displays of emotion you will ever see. He later posed with the gold medal along with a picture of his deceased wife.

I recommend you go to your country's official Olympic site and take a look at the highlights.
