Great job Frank. You look like a pylon. Do you hold up highway bridges when you're not busy competing or posting in here?

Congrats, Frank. Good work. I was going to suggest "tree trunk" but "pylon" works too!

All in good fun. I'm extremely impressed with "Frank"'s performance -- people may not realize how close to world-class those lifts are, especially for a young non-professional.



p.s. -- Sorry, JP, that it took me a full minute to fulfill your request.
