An Olympic Weightlifter caused a stir after he celebrated so massively that something serious happened to him on stage setting many hearts to beat without stop.
 
Milko Olavi Tokola, 23, after his 175kg lift celebrated passionately, screaming and tensing his torso with such intensity that his face turned bright red and he fainted. The weightlifter lost consciousness as he walked off the stage toward his coach and fell from the platform to the surprise of his technical team.
 
Luckily, he was unharmed by the fall and came round again quickly afterwards.
 
Doctors say the incident was likely due to the considerable exertion placed on his body while trying to lift the weights.

“It happens sometimes, but that was the first time for a while,” Tokola said cheerily afterwards.

“I have a problem where sometimes I give 120 per cent and I pass out. It's when I put my body through too much in that moment.
 
“Doctors have investigated and they think maybe it's to do with blood levels in the brain when I lift heavyweights.”
 
The lift earned the Finn a ninth place finish in the men’s 85kg category final.
