Einfach Gänsehaut PUR... damals saß ich vorm tv und konnte das garnicht fassen... Matthias Steiner, Olympiasieger 08 im Gewichtheben.
Einfach unbeschreiblich Schön war das.. garnicht in Worte zu fassen.
Mir kommen immernoch die Tränen bei seinem Jubel... .
Danke Matthias das du uns an solch einem Tollen erfolg teilhaben lässt.
Du bist einfach unbeschreiblich, der stärkste man der WELT :-)

Also we need to acknowledge Chigishev who lost the gold but was a class act throughout

This is a 2008 classic. Steiner was an average weightlifter in Austria, although he led his country, he was no near top tear in the 105- catagory. He then married a german woman and moved to Germany. United with Ronney Weller former couch, he increased in weight and in numbers, but was not expected to win gold. His first wife died tragically in car accident, I believe his last lift he did it for her, because he did not lift anything close to it before or after. Steiner remarried in 2010.

for those who cannot read German.
his wife wanted a gold, but she died in a car accident. He then bulked till he could play in the open class and set a record. If you to around 5:40 in the video you can seem him holding her picture.
classy fellow!

the most touching moment of Beijing Olympucs, especially for the national anthem part, he fully deserved that and may his wife rest in peace.

1. passt die Musik vom Inhalt zum Video
2. ist der Song selbst Song der olympischen Spiele 1988
3. sind zum Glück Geschmäcker verschieden ;).
