 | | At the Athens 2004 Summer Olympics, Dimas won a bronze medal in the 85kg class, becoming the fourth weightlifter in history to win a medal at four different Games after Norbert Schemansky (1964), Ronny Weller (2000) and Nikolay Pechalov (2004). |
 | | The men's Super Heavyweight Class (at present, the 105+ kg category), a perennial favorite among spectators, is currently dominated by Iranian Hossein Reza Zadeh who first set a world record at the world championships and another on the road to a gold medal at the 2000 Summer Olympics. |
 | | Reza Zadeh has since broken his own records on a number of occasions, including at the 2004 Athens Games, where he captured his second olympic gold medal. |
