Not safe for the human Kettlebell. It is more apropriate for the circus.

[sempercase]

please enlighten me. what isn't safe about it? if both people involved know what they're doing not only is it safe but it's also effective.

[averagetoelite]

You are correct in that the safety of this move is contingent upon both parties knowing what they are doing. That being said I would have a spotter or some matting just in case. Just my opinion.

[sempercase]

probably would have been smart, but I like the fear factor. It makes you work harder haha

[baloo53180]

that was pretty sick, wheres your hand at??? inner thigh?

[sempercase]

Thanks man. My hand is just holding onto her bicep while she locks her hands underneath her legs.

[ahmednabil]

she made it a bit harder for you obviously , didnt tighten up enough and left her arms too loose .

[ollobrains1]

I HAVE to find a chicky to try this with! That's cool as hell! Very impressive.

I don't have any issues with wrist torque, because I keep my wrists straight. The only thing I can think of that would cause one to torque his/her wrist is by having the wrist bent/extended backward towards the forarm when gripping the bell.  If you keep your wrists straight and fixed at all times, there should be no torque issues.

I feel the human is a bit easier than a kettlebell, but nowhere as easy as a dumbbell. Problem with the KB is that it puts considerable torque on the wrist - I used a kettlestack loaded with 25lbs plates for training - which doesn't occur with the DB and only slightly with a human. A sandbag held on the flat of an outstretched hand is worst, though - I worked up to a 130lbs bag this way before attempting the girl, just to make sure - not too good to look bad in public...

[JohnFlais]

When I did this feat, I told my partner that I couldn't guarantee it would all go as planned - since there was no warmup etc - but if I'd drop her, I'd drop her onto me, taking the impact. First she hesitated, then she agreed. And we pulled it off no sweat ;-)

omg that is v v impressive, I bet she feels protected by ur strength lol

[shaun554]

wouldnt it be lighter to lift someone of that weight then a beast even though the persons roughly 8 pounds more because the weight is distributed into a bigger space other then compacted into one little bell

[reafdaw01]

I like yor good form, just at the very end before you stand completly you push your leg forward - not so good for joints.

but really strong 6 stars ;-)
