Viktor Georgievich Bushuev (Russian: Виктор Георгиевич Бушуев, 18 May 1933 – 25 April 2003) was a Russian weightlifter. During his career, he won three world titles (1957–1959) and an Olympic gold medal (1960), and set three official and two unofficial world records, all in the total.[1][2]
Bushuev was selected to the national team in 1955 and dominated his 67.5 kg weight category until 1960. He retired in 1964 after failing the national trials for the Olympic team and became a weightlifting coach in his native Nizhny Novgorod.[1]
