A GURU LIFTS 454 Kilo
New York (APA). With a lot of muscle power and allegedly even more inner power the Indian-born peace guru Sri Chinmoy set a new weightlifting record: with his own bodyweight of exactly 170.5 lbs., the almost 69-year-old man lifted two 500-lb. dumbbells in a special lifting cage in his home in New York, as the Sri Chinmoy Centre International informed us. This is together 1,000 lbs.
