That makes me feel sick.

I was about to say the same thing.
I bought a power rack and i bench inside it with the pins set so that even if the load falls, i’ll be just fine.

I got pinned under a smith machine a couple years back. It was a super ghetto ass rusty old fuck that you could never fing the damned slots for to twist the hooks into because they faced away from you (the whole thing was designed super retarded and it was against a wall).
I got pinned and couldn’t find the damned slots so I had to do some sort of tantric sex ballerina move to actually bring my foot up to mid chest level and kick the weight off. Don’t know how I did it[/quote]
I never heard of kicking a bar off…sounds like a close call
I once got stuck in a leg press with a 600 lb load. Talk about geting crushed. LOL!!!
I was even too proud to call for help but i eventually called over some help in the most casual tone that i could muster.
Very sad story
I noticed this from the article
“It’s just not worth it,” Shaub said. “If you want to improve yourself, then you should be doing that with all the safeguards in place. That would be having a spotter.”
Maybe he should have been spotting for his son.
