Bench Press accident



Uploaded by: danimal24
Video Description:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fTpOZthGnWs - For those who think I have no business trying to bench 305lbs, here's a vid of me getting 295lbs a few minutes before this accident.
I was very lucky: no broken bones, no internal injuries, just a badly bruised chest. I took two weeks off from bench pressing, but I was squatting two days after this accident. It was NOT the spotter's fault, it was my fault. I was using a dangerous grip. I used the thumbs-under grip for many
years with never so much as a "close call". Needless to mention, I have changed my grip to wrapping my thumbs. But I'll still get tons of comments about my grip from all the illiterate "experts" out there. Probably 1% of the commenters will read this. This video aired on "World's Most Amazing V
ideos" - http://www.spike.com/episode/24809/startsWith/2915932 www.myspace.com/danimal24

LOLOLOLOLOLOLOL Worst spotter ever. First of all he let that n00b try something that was clearly out of his league. Second of all, he let him use a grip that only retarded MORONS use, and third of all he didn't keep his hand under the bar. When you have someone who has obviously never benched before, or rarely does, you ALWAYS keep your hands under the bar and have them use a firm grip. Guy like I said before, you gotta work your way up to that weight.

lol? I'm guessing he could have done it, he was just using no-thumbed grip... easier to bench press with just more dangerous.
