Crazy thing that happened in the gym today

[Ingram]

thumbless is the only way to bench...never had a weight slip though.

Yeah I deffinitly find it more comfortable. I use suicide while I warm up and up to 275lbs, once I get to 3 wheels I use a traditional grip.

Got you beat

I did this myself. I was doin incline press with 145lbs. When I went to put it back on the pins it must have slipped off or I did not put it all the back on the pins. Well to make a long story short it slipped of the pins and came straight down and landed on my head. RIGHT ACROSS MY FOREHEAD!!!! I was out cold on the bench for a couple of minutes before someone found me. I was okay but I had one hell of a rasberry on my head for about a week and one hell of a head ache. It ws the last time I ever worked out alone. I have always been told I am hard headed but this was ridculous. Quess I was lucky.

PEACE

I had the 5 pic clip of Garry dropping 700 on his chest...wild. The spotters fell asleep or something.

thanks for posting the pic b fold.

i have seen the 5 pic... i dont think the spotters could've completely stopped the weight, they may have been able to lessen the blow but it would still hurt...

he was really lucky nothing really bad happened.

look at those spotters what in the fuk where they going to do with 700 lbs...

 

[b fold the truth]

Naaa...they couldn't do any thing...wasn't their fault. I think that they sat there for a second in total shock before they helped pull it off though.

Do they use small guys for spotters so that the judges can see past them easier?

Yep. It happens that fast. One second it looks like the lift is perfect and in the next its laying on your chest.
