Flabby breh almost meets his maker on the bench press

[The BasedFather]

Hope he’s alright and went to the hospital and got checked out.

Seriousness aside, fat boy had no business doing that. Weight bounced off his chest like a basketball

 

[42 Monks]

it looks like his right hand or thumb failed or maybe even broke. His right grip failed quickly...

actually had to slow the video down to see it, yep. clipped the rack

 

[Umoja]

Had that nikka sounding like




AYO man that spotter ain’t shyt what the fukk lmfaooo

I'm wheezing.

 

[Canon]

yeah that looked super painful

 

[Remote]

I thought he had the suicide grip but no. His grip was normal.
His wrists just gave right out.

Crazy

 

[SheWantTheD]

When I see videos like this.. is the weight too heavy or these guys have no grip strength???

I have never had a barbell slip out of my hands like that

 

[blues_funk_reggae]

That weight bounced right off him like some kids on a trampoline.

Most of the people you see repping 315+ are fat. The spotter did nothing wrong. The guy probably asked him not touch the bar after he unracked it.

The bolded is my experience as well. Dudes look like they only lift Lindt Lindor Truffles but come in repping 315 for warmups. I can think of 4 that go to my gym who do that and they are bulbous af.

Spotter should have had his hands on the bar

The bar dropped. There's nothing the spotter could have done even if his hands were on the bar especially at that weight.

 

[FeverPitch2]

AYO man that spotter ain’t shyt what the fukk lmfaooo

First thing I noticed.

 

[Phitz]

spotter ain't strong enough to hold all that weight up from that position

yeah but both of them together would have lessen the impact on his chest. I always make sure they can at least bring it down AND push it back up before I let go as a spotter.

Spotter let go to early.

 

[Phitz]

The "camera man" is wrong too for running over there while still filming. like put the phone in your pocket and go help

I watched it again and it looks like it slipped. I guess he couldn't keep a strong grip. I've seen guys get stuck but still maintain grip enough to keep the weights from dropping that fast.

 

[Lonj]

At least he's fine. Nevermind, dude is a powerlifter.

Okay he alright Now we can get these jokes off with a clear conscience.

 

[Field Marshall Bradley]

spotter ain't strong enough to hold all that weight up from that position

That’s not how that works

 

[Field Marshall Bradley]

Because that was some weight he couldn’t handle. He should’ve known damn well he couldn’t handle 405

He said he can lift that much
