The "funniest" thing happened....

[ringperm]

.....at the gym today.
I was training my back today, and was sitting at the cable row contraption, minding my own business and working out. In the middle of the second set I heard this fascinating sound. And before I had the chance to think "what an intriguing sound", the wire snapped.
I was halfway in my momentum (can I say that?) moving backwards, and you can just imagine what happened. I was tossed backwards like a flat tire on the move. And as the weights came crashing down, making one hell of a ruckus, everybody turned and saw me sitting on the floor, confused as two blind homosexuals in a bathtub filled with wieners. The only thing missing was those cartoon like birds flying around my head, chirping like... like flying birds I guess.
It was kind of embarrassing, but being a guy that's used to embarrassment, I tried to shrug it off, and smirk to myself. I don't know if it worked, though.

Anyway, I just thought I'd share. Needed to work on my English anyway

You broke it!

Sounds painful though I'd have loved to see it.

ROFLMAO!!!

Thank you for your concern. Except for a light bruise on my shin, and my pride (obviously ) I was unharmed. The poor guy working as a PT (why are all PT's I've ever seen so skinny?) was worried sick. I had a little tumble across the floor, but that was it (damn I would have liked to see that myself, lol). I guess, from the look on my face, he probably thought I had a head injury

But it didn't ruin my workout, and that's what's important. Overall I had a great day at the gym. But hopefully I will not be apprehensive the next time I'm using this machine.
The sad thing is, this is the second time this wire has snapped since I joined this gym, a little over a year ago.

Hey im not skinny!!!!

Somehow I had the feeling you would show up and say something like that
But you are right, you are an exception, as far as I've seen from the pictures you posted on the board that you moderate. Good work btw
