a video about Pyrros Dimas.As a triple world and Olympic champion, Pyrros Dimas has aleady won enough medals and titles to last some people a lifetime.

Born in southern Albania, Dimas, who is married with three children, is originally from a strong Orthodox Greek minority in the south of the country.

The fall of the Iron Curtain enabled him to get to Greece, and after moving to Athens in 1991 his destiny became clear.

A brief look at his previous results, including his fourth place for Albania in the 1990 European Championships, proved ample for the authorities, and Greek nationality quickly followed.

With a gold medal in the 82.5kg category during the 1992 Olympic Games in Barcelona when he was still only 21, the whole of Greece embraced their new Hercules.

Greece had just earned its first Olympic weightlifting medal since 1904.

After joining the Greek army Dimas continued his winning ways, becoming world champion in 1993 and in 1995 in the 83kg category.

He then justified his choice as the Greek delegation's flag-bearer at the 1996 Olympic Games in Atlanta by winning his second consecutive Olympic title in the 83kg category, and adding an impressive world record in the process: 392.5kg for his Olympic cumulated total.

Having won the world title in 1998, second place was all he could manage in 1999 after undergoing a complex operation on his shoulder. Again, injury played an adverse role when he could only manage a fourth place at the 2000 European Championships due to leg trouble.

But in Sydney he again reigned supreme, taking gold in the 85kg category ahead of the German Marc Huster.

In January 2001 he was voted onto the organising committee of the 2004 Athens Games.
