Did anyone watch the "Robot Bodybuilder"? I thought it was a cool routine.

http://ebaumsworld.com/2006/12/weight-lift-accident.html

kid in video is 14 years old, attempting to lift 109kg/240 lbs. he was back in training a few days later. no major injuries, nothing broken.

http://www.aftenposten.no/nyheter/sport/article1570443.ece

he's the strongest in this class in Norway. he blamed it on his holding the bar a bit wrong, too high on his chest, blocking his ability to breath.
