All 5 of the major powerlifting / weightlifting world records are held by white men

Nice! I’m only versed in lbs, and I’m too lazy to Google the kgs to lbs conversion. But I’m impressed nonetheless.
 
Whites have long since dominated strength sports. The world record lifts by Talakhadze are just mind boggling. The 267kg clean and jerk is 587 pounds. To lift that amount off the floor up to your chest and then hoist it over your head is almost unbelievable. I don't care for the bench and squat events really because a lot of those guys barely move the bar. The usually get into a really advantageous position and have a whole slew of different wraps and shirts on that restrict the range of motion but allow you to lift more. That's just my own personal opinon though. They are world record holders so clearly they are the best in their event.
