I imagine whoever used it last didn't properly put it back or locked it but idk

He and the gym chain should sue the manufacturer of that equipment for all they’ve got.

I can tell he likely added too much weight to that machine, watch him go get extra plates to throw in before he sat down. 

 

He overweighed down the machine.

Yeah that could be it. The last guy that left that machine probably didn't lock it right...but still this is creepy af. It was out of nowhere...

I’m not watching that.  But I feel bad for him and hope he has the best recovery possible.

exactly my thoughts, not bothered at all, bad

What the actual ****, the poor guy. I hope he manages to recover...

This is why you don't sit or stand under a load that isn't fully secured. A brake, hydraulic jack,... could fail.

He was the one doing the exercise on it and put on extra weights, it probably wasn't properly locked in when he left it. Not only that but after he put on the extra weights he sat on the machine where you are supposed to be standing, him sitting down might have accidentally released the safety on it.

Did it hit his neck? His head bounces so hard and so fast :rip: omg

God all these neck/spine injury videos from gyms.....hate it.

This is terrible but it's probably his own fault, looks like he didn't engage the lock on the squat machine properly and it fell on itself due to the number of discs he'd put on it
