Meet the 14-year-old weightlifter who can lift more than TWICE his own weight

A 14-year-old weightlifter is fast making his mark on the sport - and can already lift more than twice his own weight. Jake Schellenschlager, from Glen Burnie, Maryland, has been setting world records for his weight class - under 123 pounds - after devoting himself to training for the last two-and-a-half years. The 5ft 3, 119 pound teenager has now opened up to the Washington Post about his love of the sport and his aspirations for the future - while his parents insist it is safe on the growing boy's body.
