Even their scrub censors are efficient

Earlier today Hungarian weightlifter Janos Baranyai snapped his elbow while attempting to snatch 148kg (about 325 lbs.). The footage, available below, is predictably gruesome. And while normally we only encourage small children and those with weak stomachs to watch such things, I have decided that everyone needs to see this.

Note the speed and precision with which the Chinese staff -- I believe these are the serfs who load up the dumbbells between rounds -- run up to the platform and obscure a perfectly good view of a horrible injury by surrounding the scene with bright, wide placards sporting that friendly Olympic logo.

It's almost as though this nation has had practice concealing hideous and unfortunate events.

Footage is HERE. I've also posted a picture below, but you really shouldn't look.

I told you not to look.
