actually if you look when he puts his hands on the bar full screen he wraps his thumbs and in my opinion id rotate my wrists/drop the bar if some dude yells giggity right as i start to press...props to quagmire
Guys, spotters aren't there to keep you from being stupid. They're there to clear the bench for a smarter bencher to come along. Seriously, I think the spotters were 'ok'. Wrap your thumb and lose 20 lbs on your lift at the most. If you think it is more than 20, then you probably turn the light on and off 12 times before you enter a room, Rain Man.
@ederinho420 This reminds me of that Simpson's episode when Homer falls down the canyon and is being carried out by a helicopter and he keeps hitting his head on the rocks.
i don't know why, but when the weights landed on him, it was just what came to mind. lol
@51555468 which is exactly why they should just have safety bars higher than his body, i use dumbells anyway so if i drop them ts only the ground getting hurt :)
it was the first rep, it wasnt the spotters fault it was the fatasses for now knowing his own limits and not using his fucking thumbs to hold the bar properly - how the fuck did it fall out of his grip that quickly lmfao
spotters did their job the guy didnt have the weight on him for long. Spotters are really supposed to help you lift the weight if you fatigue and cant get it up.
I've noticed everyone's somments about using suicide grip - but if you watch closely this guy WAS NOT using suicide grip, i put it on full screen & paused it & you can clearly see his thumbs were round the bar - how he still managed to drop it -only he knows lol.

Doesn't he feel like an asshole. They even applauded for him. Can't they put support beams similar to a power rack in place in case of any accident? How many times do people have to get crushed before somebody thinks of this idea? One should never bench or squat without it, in training or in competition.
@FitnessFreak13 That would be a good idea. Lifting should be done with minimal equipment, and NO bench shirts. Going out to lift in a suite of armor is ridiculous.
my wrists have slipped downwards a couple of times. But because i put my thumb around the bar, it doesn't fall out and crush my chest like this. I don't recommend this grip at all.
@holymackeral456 the bar slipped, its not like he couldnt lift it, it was going up at a reasonable pace, a split second slip is hard to predict... not anybody's fault just an accident. IMO
there's also a biiiig bucket usually, full of chalk and rocks of chalk. you're supposed to chalk up your hands before you put up heavy weight. this is why. c'mon. how the hell did you get up to benching that much and still make a rook mistake like that?
@ty99999returns A suicide grip is a thumb-less grip used for squatting which is safe because the wight is pressed into your body. Using it for bench pressing is moronic beyond belief because nothing is stopping the bar from falling out of your sweaty hands....hence 'suicide grip'. On a side note: I am glad the guy is ok, it did look pretty bad to be honest. Rubbish spotters. Power rack FTW! :D
Granted, the spotter was way too far to be useful, there was still NOTHING he could have done about that. The lifter decided to use the grip that he did and he completely lost all grip on that bar. Even if the spotter DID get his hands underneath on time, he probably would've ripped his biceps because all 300+ pounds of that would've been transferred to him in a blink of an eye. Better you, than me.
Exacly, there's nothing worse then a spotter that has no clue what to do. And look at his reaction time! He's the LAST guy there to pull the weight off him. Awful awful spotter!
The spotter to the right deserves a kick in the ass... Hes not holding under the bar, but besides it. You can se by hes "look" that he think hes fast enough to catch it if the bencher lose the bar... He dont master the "spotter-skill", and need instructions
@apepoopie53 well, it centers it more easily with your forearm, so you can apply more power to it. it's very unsafe though and really not worth the risk
check out the main spotters CAT LIKE REFLEXES after the bar slips out the dudes hand, and he still dosnt even move after he sees the bar on the dudes chest people from the crowd got up faster than his fat ass.
@iluvfatchx I don't care how many spotters you have, when the bar slips, and 500 lbs+ gains momentum, NO bunch of humans can protect the lifter from getting crushed. They should use support posts. Ironmind made some years ago but the have discontinued the product - and it was a fine one at that.
@AFRO13- Those spotters did nothing wrong..they responded fast enough..did you expect them to catch 420lbs in the blink of an eye? there spotters..not super hero's
i dont get it? why is it that in all these types of vids, they never put there thumbs all the way round the bar? surely it causes accidents like this?
