I'm amazed by these women weightlifters who can lift over twice their body weight.
I just watched a Chinese woman lift 110kg, that's like 230lbs. DAMN!

5. I think that's Holly Mangold.
She is the sister of former Buckeye and Jets center Nick Mangold.

13. A Japanese woman won the silver. More like 4x body weight.
She was probably 50 kg or less and jerked and held 197 kg over her head!
