I found this pretty cool vid on youtube and thought id share it here
[ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tyz4oMaRvDQ&feature=youtube_gdata_player]Ruslan Albegov 210kg Snatch + 245kg Clean and Jerk - YouTube[/ame]
See how the 120kg snatch was performed? In about 1 second, the bar moved 137cm.
Let's do some calculus.....
velocity = Distance / Time
137cm / 1s = 1.37 meters per second
With the clean and jerk, in a time of approximately 1 second, the barbell moves 1.07cm. This results in a velocity of 1.07 meters per second. That sucker was flying!! Well as flying as a 245kg loaded barbell can.
Please note its mass is 245...its weight is a different matter.
