just because it is awesome

Wow! Unless you've tried that, you just don't know how difficult that is. I've tried single hand snatches with a barbell at a light weight and found it to be not worth the effort. I have to imagine a clean and jerk is a lot harder.

Mere mortals have a difficult time mastering the Olympic lifts with 2 arms.

This dude belongs in the Marvel Universe.

Absolutely incredible to witness.
 
The 20 year old in me: that is freaking awesome.

The 36 year old lame Dad in me: good lord be careful man that is a torn rotator cuff waiting to happen.
I had the exact same inner monologue, except I'm 37.

I'd be more concerned with the elbow or wrist as they tend to be the weak links in the Olympic lifts. A dislocated elbow with only one arm - yikes! At least with 2 arms you can push away with the good one and get out of the way.
 
Came within a few feet of taking out the guy in the wheel chair...
