You guys have to check out Jaro Olech@165.
Squatted a new world record 793 lbs. I'm like - WTF? The guy is an absolute monster.
Probably the best powerlifter ever.
In comparison, I think he would've won the squat gold medal in every class up to 198 lbs.

I was side spotting that and I have to say that is the most insain thing I have ever seen in my life. I also got  to spot Billican's 922 attempt and Siders 970. Both crazy but you cant touch 790+ at 165...

Hooper is the man.
And you got to meet Johnny I see - quite the character to put it mildly. He puts onlyme to shame in more ways than one.
To bad he didn't managed more than his opener in the deadlift.

Ya. Hopper is awesome. The whole American team was very friendly. Mike Tuchsherer blew my mind. He is a small 125. He pulls with more of a Romanian style stiff leg then conventional.

Johnny is a character alright. I kept expecting to see him dragging a dead goat around or something. Dude is fucking huge.

One day I saw Midote eating  lunch. He had a big salad and what looked like a dinner roll or something in his hand. It didnt look like much food for a super to be eating. Then he took a bite of what he had in his hand and started pulling bones out of his mouth. I  realized that he had like half a chicken in his hand...

Yes.
Johnny Wahlqvist.
Was down in bodyweight from his previous record of around 400 lbs, now he is around 360 lbs, may be for health reasons.
He won the bench and took silver overall.
