Saw this on the Starting Strenght forum. If you listen closely at about 00:53 you can hear the snap...

Finally some good jerk off material.

Kind of amazing that he didn't shout or scream or anything. Though, in a way, his silence made even more of an impact. Yikes.

 

[dogsoldier]

Makes me wonder if he passed out when the bone let go.

 

[zoco]

Really scary accident.He was lucky the weight didn't crush him though.

It's worth the watch.....like cracking your knuckles, except that sound was his leg splintering - He was barely phased though.....

fuck no, Im not watching that again.

 

[Ted Shred]

Man, the weights I use may not pose much of a challenge to gravity but at least I don't have to worry about getting crushed anytime soon.

All this stuff made me think back to when I saw the infamous Franko Columbo injury live on TV:

I thought that was like 20 years ago but, from the ticker, apparently Jason Kidd was still in the league. Oh, wait....

This is the reason I usually do high rep squats or the 5x5. I never max out. I have bars too in case of a fall also.
