I also thought he'd almost failed it at first, but I think that might just be his technique. He's not actually exerting any effort, just making sure he's stable under the bar before going for the squat. Xiaojun is fucking awesome. So sad he couldn't go for that third snatch. | ||

He might have even beaten Xiaojun if it weren't for the injury in his second snatch. Yeah i got chills watching that, the sheer look of pain on his face but completely unwielding. But that 204 squat jerk was pretty fucking badass too. | ||

I've seen that enough, but if you saw the live stream, you would also see the barbell clipping his elbow after the injury. If you search on youtube, the barbell clipping his elbow looks like he's flinching. | ||
