Life in rural Kyrgyzstan: Wrestlers participate in horse lifting competition

AKIPRESS.COM - Wrestler Kuchurbek uulu Ularbek lifted a 300-kg horse during the sports event to mark 130th anniversary of Kaba uulu Kojomkul.

Wrestler claims he lifted a horse for the first time in his life. 

"I've never lifted anything weighing 300 kg before. I only lifted items weighing less than 150 kg. About 40 wrestlers participated in the tournament, and many could not lift a horse, which was kicking some. I lifted a horse for more than 20 centimeters and won the first place," he said.
