20-year-old Armenian weightlifter Andranik Karapetyan crashed out of the Olympics in agony after he suffered a terrible elbow dislocation during the 77kg weightlifting event. Described as one of the favorites at the event, his left elbow gave way during a second attempt to lift 195kg (429lbs).
He screamed in pain as the vast weight crashed to the mat behind his head and a medical team quickly rushed to his aid. The weightlifter was later seen being carried in to an ambulance on a stretcher on a saline drip. More photos below.
