American weightlifter Hampton Morris made Olympic history on Wednesday. His bronze medal in the 61kg competition was the first medal by a U.S. weightlifter in 40 years - since the 1984 games in Los Angeles. Morris earned a score of 303 in the clean and jerk. Chinese lifter Li Fabin took the gold with a score of 310, while Thailand's Theerapong Silachai won silver. What Olympic event do you think you could do the best in?
