Ya he looks of russian desent. David Rigert was also from Kazakhstan. Anyways Ilin is the best, I hope he and Kolecki battle again at London, 2012.

[journalistgirl07]

David Goldstrom is a legend of weightlifting commentary. I know some pple might dislike him, but I find his commentary priceless. 

[JagZZZoR]

HE IS RUSSIAN!, HE IS NOT KAZAKH , he is born in kazakhtan

But if u look at his face, he doesnt have small eyes or small boddy like most of Kazakhs.

[Daurenchik]

@JagZZZoR He is Greek from Kazakhstan you fucking asshole!!! FUCK YOU!!!!

[boskiromanfirma]

@Daurenchik he is pole from china !

[JagZZZoR]

[WielkiPolskiPatriota]

eurosport commentary..best in the world..they can predict future...

[kamikazeCORP]

Fucking incredible is the only way to describe this i mean how many 17 year olds could deadlift this let alone deadlift it, squat it and put in overhead all in 1 motion

[010mikey]

no way in hell i can snatch it but i can deadlift whatever he clean and jerks. But your right he's an amazing lifter.

[demolisher123]

@010mikey with wide grip?hmm...i dont think so mate

[shade6787]

@010mikey that's unimpressive 

[thugmelvin]

this commentator is an idiot

[bigred0239]

can't get over how small he looks and how different his technique looks in comparison to the '06 worlds!! but these numbers are still INSANE!!

[DROGBAZHAN]

Ilya Ilin won the gold medal in the men's 94kg weightlifting class at the Beijing Olympics in 2008.

Very talented athlete!!!

[glcb7]

[zonikel]

Sorry my english is not good, but did you write that weightlifting is not a sport?
