Guy Nearly Chokes Lifting Weights in Freaky Safety Bar Fail
For every weightlifting feat, there is a weightlifting failure.
After benching what looks like a healthy amount of weight, this guy experiences something you'd only expect to see in one of the 'Final Destination' movies: the safety bar failed, causing the weights to land on his neck, choking him.
He's lucky to have escaped without injury and only the reminder that it's better to watch people lift weights than do it yourself.
