They are going to show a powerlifter drop what looks like 465lbs onto his chest from a full lock out.

Damn...I'm at work

Actually it was like 575lbs. The guy weighed 270. He almost go it out to a full lock and he was driving the weight back from his sternum to his eyes and his hands (no locked thumb). The weight slipped and dropped onto his chest. He survived with minor injuries.

I do not understand the interest in seeing people have accidents that could cause lethal or extremely painful damage. Anyone care to explain it?

 

[Schutzhund1]

I can't explain it but I liken it to watching a car wreck or any other accident for that matter. We humans are probably the only species to find interest in this type of activity.

I remember seeing something similar about 3-4 years back. The guy had a ton of weight, when he picked it up, both his wrists snapped and the weight crushed his chest

 

[awnyerneas]

Im with synpax why do people wanna see that shit? Strange. What can be done to make sure that type of thing doesn't happen? I like my chest not being crushed.

 

[Bulldog_10]

It's just interesting. It's not an everyday occurence...so when things like this happen, it's only natural to want to see it.

Reminds me of that pic of the guy squatting when he blows out his ass...fuckin disgusting!

awhile back someone posted a group of pics of a guy squating. it looked like one of his legs came undone or unhinged or something at the knee... or was it his lower leg bone breaking in half... I don't remember but it was freaky looking, that's for shure!!
