Glad you made a video about this. It was mind boggling. I was repeating to myself "no way he is 16 years old". The best part is that the kid is ferocious because at the end, when Pizzolato lifted that 206 to win the gold medal you can see he (Nasar) is pretty upset about it.

You do know Nasar was lifting even more in training, so ofc the team knew they are going for gold.
