In my early 20's I was training a client in the gym. There was a guy 2 benches down doing flat dumbell presses with 55lb dumbells. I dont know what happened whether he wasnt strong enough or he lost balence or what... but his elbow broke form at the top of the press, the 55lb dumbell hit him on his face. My client and I looked over all I could think of was like damn that's gonna leave a mark. I know thats bad but he was trying to be so macho he got up and tried playing it off like it didnt even happen!! Go figure.... I know it hurt like hell...

Now that is crazy.. I saw 2 guys at the gym doing bench. They were high schoolers thrying to show their girls how strong they were. They were the type that walk around using terrible form just to get the heavy weight up. They put 225lbs on the bar, and I asked if they wanted a spot and his partner said "I got this".. Kid helps him roll the bar of the pegs, and SLAM rigt down on his neck. Now his partner tries to help him up with the bar, but the 2 of them together couldn't lift it.. Finally my training partner goes "Leonard go help the poor kid." So I helped them and we will just say the kids girlz left laughing and they never returned to the gym.

what I think is hilarious is the fools that dont put the clamps on and dont know how to work out so the slam the weight around like they're tough, as the weights just creep on off of the bar and send the bar flying one way and then the other. I've seen that way too many times and it makes such a ruccus that everyone turns to see where the noise came from, how embarassing
