Ouch. This vid got me to wondering just how bad he'd have gotten hurt. A) Broken neck (I doubt it) B) Concussion (definitely) C) Broken Jaw (maybe) D) Broken Nose (maybe) E) Fractured Nose (maybe) F) Fractured Skull (maybe - from landing with the back of his skull on the floor!!) G) Crushed trachea (I doubt it) H) Missing teeth (maybe)
I'm only guessing, but it looked like he might have had a bit of postural hypotension there. (That dizziness you sometimes get when you stand up too quickly).
Yeah, I've seen this cracker before and apparently it was confirmed that he just passed out at the top. Not exactly common but not unheard of.
Yeah. Somehow, this doesn't make me laugh. It doesn't look like stupidity to me, just a massive dose of bad, bad luck. Poor guy.
Yeah I'd have to agree. I don't it was because he didn't know what he was doing or he was being an ass somehow. I feel for the guy quite honestly.
it looked like good form to me, so i don't think it was that at all. sometimes even the best have a bad hand delt to them ocassionally.... i'm reminded of a time in high school when a guy a year behind me powercleaned 225 for his first time, and this is a guy who has perfected clean and jerk and was on the school powerlifting team for like 3 years, he could throw up 220 easily, went for 225 the first time, and the ground was a lil slippery i think and he just lost traction and the weight fell on the top of his head and rolled down his neck. luckily for him, he somehow made it out of there w/ just a minor headache, but i've seen things happen to people w/ loads of experience that are just freak accidents.
