Olympic weightlifter turns his elbow back to front

[Midnight Mike]

This is the moment Hungarian weightlifter Janos Baranyai's first Olympics ended in agony when he dislocated his right elbow in the ugliest moment yet of the Olympic weightlifting competition.

Baranyai was trying to snatch 148kg in his third lift in the men's 77kg division, when his elbow popped out of its socket.

No longer able to support the weight of the barbell, his right forearm bent backward. The 24-year-old Hungarian fell to the floor in shock, shaking and crying out in pain.

WHY DID THEY KEEP SHOWING IT?!
For the same reason NASCAR wrecks make the highlight reels.

If you watch closely you can see the barbell nearly landed his neck when he dropped it.

Like the runners that die of heart attacks, I'd say this guy has reached his physical limits, and it might be time for him to stop pushing the envelope.
