horrific Squatting accident

[DLTH]

This is the worst weightlifting accident I've seen and if you are a powerlifter that squats heavy weight you might not want to watch.

I wanna watch it, but I don't think I'm gonna.

The last time I watched a squatting accident, it made me not wanna squat anymore.

I wanna watch it, but I don't think I'm gonna.

The last time I watched a squatting accident, it made me not wanna squat anymore.

I started to watch it but my hands started sweating and I started shaking. I turned it off. That freaks the hell out of me!

 

[FLEXjs]

Not gonna watch. I hate that shit.

This is why I swore off the bar for everything, I like my joints.

Description above more than enough for me not to watch.

I really feel bad for the guy.

From what it seems it appears he let the wraps control him and the weight instead of controlling the wraps and the weight he didn't sit back and push out on the wraps.

I hope it wasn't his 1st time in wrap or him being taught wrong in the use of them.

They look like Inzer Grippers and IMO they are not that aggressive of wraps.

He could have made a jump in weight that was way beyond his means but one would have to know them facts to be certain.

At 1st I thought it was a suit and he didn't sit back nor get his knees out but after looking a few times I think it's the weight, bad technique of the wraps and seems to just be a singlet.

I tried watching it like 5 times earlier but I knew If I watched before the gym I'd be freaking out at the gym . Now its time.

WtF!! Poor guy.. His legs will never be the same. It sounded like a tree snapping in half ah. If I have nightmares Im gonna sue DLTH.

I train hard and relatively heavy, but I'm very careful and deliberate. And I stay within certain poundage and volume limits. I've never had a serious injury.
