Anaxagoras      The spotter wasn't the problem. He was right there, closely watching like he was supposed to. Spotters are there to help you put the barbell on its stand if your arms are shaking & you can't quite lift it back up. What happened to that guy was much quicker than any spotter is expected to react to. (In fact, I'm betting that the spotter is the only reason the weightlifter didn't die then & there.)

Hooker It's too much fuckin' weight.

simon666 It's called a bar roll and looks to my eye, though I probably don't know enough about weight lifting to be authoritative, that it is in fact too much weight. Bar rolls can occur with bad/improper hand grip, where the lifter doesn't properly wrap the thumb around the bar. It also seems like it might have been a max lift, though I wasn't able to verify that anywhere. The roll probably could have been mitigated if the spotter were near the bar during the initial down movement, which, if it was a max or near max lift, would have have been appropriate.

simon666 But as you guys know the title was meant to be humorously apt, not descriptively apt.
|
Anaxagoras Sorry... I wasn't trying to get on your case Simon. I saw something wrong on the Internets & did the knee-jerk "ACTUALLY...." thing.
