Dimitrios Bakochristos is a Greek Paralympic powerlifter of short stature.[1] He represented Greece at the 2016 Summer Paralympics held in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil and he won the bronze medal in the men's 54 kg event.[1] Bakochristos lifted 162 kg which was sufficient for the bronze medal; although Bruno Carra (representing Brazil) lifted the same amount as Bakochristos, he did not win the medal as his body weight was higher.[2]
At the 2019 World Para Powerlifting Championships he won the bronze medal in the men's 54 kg event.[3][4] He also won the bronze medal in this event at the 2017 World Para Powerlifting Championships held in Mexico City, Mexico.
