video clip Man suffers accident with gym equipment, chances of walking again are only 1%

[DamianSolo]

I was sitting and watching this video, just knowing something was going to happen to that guy doing his leg exercises. Yeah, I wasn't expecting that at all. I had to go back and watch it again just to see what actually happened. That's terrible.

This is what scares me about some gym equipment. And why I usually go lighter just in case. Gains can wait.

They just released his tomography

omg not another gym accident

[Bubble Tea]

HATE those big scary pieces of equipment. I remember using the leg press machine and all the weight is above you and you're on an angle with it crushing down towards you... I had a personal trainer and he'd put HUGE weights on it and ugh, I always felt like something dark and evil could happen. I have so much anxiety over squatting because of those.

This is why I stick to group fitness classes

i was watching the wrong guy.  I thought the guy in the blue shirt his legs would go backwards with the amount of weight he had on there.  But yikes at the real guy.  I never **** with super heavy weights.  Too much risk for injury.  You can get a great body with less weight.

you can get gains with lighter equipment easily.  Just do more reps.

Yikes! Not when I signed up for a new gym a month ago that I haven’t visited and need motivation to come back

Poor guy.

He is emotionally OK but unfortunately there is almost zero chance he will be able to walk again. He is receiving donations for the incident so he can afford a good wheelchair, medicine and other needed technical equipments.

Oh my goodness.

 

[MonsterJohn]

Omg I'll be more mindful when I'm at the gym from now on, poor guy

[Hurem]

This is so ******* scary. Lemme just do my workouts in my own bedroom.

[grAntVRIL]

I really hate that some people in this thread are talking about it being his fault as if they know for certain whose fault it was (as if it even matters in the first place). That video is incredibly discomforting to watch and it made me sick to my stomach. I'm glad he's alive and okay, even if he likely can't walk again.
