Funny thing happened at the gym

**diamonds** · 06-18-2006, 02:34 PM

This was pretty funny to me but I felt bad for the guy that rushed over to help me out. I was warming up on BB bench with 225 lb. while I noticed 2 of my gym buddies bullshitin by the incline bench about 15 feet away. Anyway I thought it would be funny to drop the 225 on my chest and act like I was struggling and let out a "psssssssssstt" as in "I need help". Well I got there attention while at the same time getting the attention of a fellow gym member. This guy was about 55+ years old and when he saw me struggling he literally came running over to help me lift the bar. Right when he ran up I simply pushed the weight off my chest while laughing and racked it. I felt so bad because this poor guy sincerely thought I needed help and my buddies were laughing so hard they were in tears. I'm such a dick!

**Timm1704** · 06-18-2006, 04:03 PM

**chest6** · 06-18-2006, 05:00 PM

lol ah well. worse things have happened at sea. just be happy that you toy with 225 hehe

**Carlos_E** · 06-18-2006, 09:11 PM

That was stupid. I hope when you really do get stuck no one helps you.

**SwoleCat** · 06-18-2006, 10:24 PM

I just don't see the humor in this.

I'm in the gym to workout, not play jokes on old men.

We all have our own goals I suppose.

Funny how you called yourself a dick/prick though in the same thread, that's something to be proud of.

its weird how he realises it affected the wrong person and it was wrong to do that, but then people talk shit, get a sense of humour.

I have a sense of humor. It's not funny. It seems pretty stupid and immature. Grow up.

You're 19. No wonder you think it's funny.

**toofatbuilder** · 06-18-2006, 11:16 PM

poor guy. next time you see him you should thank him for tryin to help.

RA · 06-18-2006, 11:24 PM

It wouldn't be funny if you were squishing your melon and nobody came to help

**J.S.N.** · 06-18-2006, 11:33 PM

he didnt mean to get the older dude involved. he was tryin to pull one over on his friends. altho still, abit pointless

**Panzerfaust** · 06-19-2006, 08:28 AM

I would'nt have rushed over there, i would have sat back and enjoyed the site of you gasping for air underneath some weight you had no buisness attempting to lift in the first place.

**rar1015** · 06-19-2006, 08:43 AM

That is pretty stupid. i cant stand it when people do that kind of stuff at the gym. Why are you even there if all you're going to do is play jokes and mess around the whole time?

**Superhuman** · 06-19-2006, 08:49 AM

hey, if you're @ the gym with your buddies it's okay to f*ck around with eachother as long as you aren't bothering anybody else. he didn't ask the old guy to come, he was doing it to be funny with his friends. and if you are always serious when you work out and never have any fun, what's the point? i'm not saying it's okay to mess around the whole time, though.

When things aren't funny they aren't funny, just like Carlos stated.

I have a sense of humor, so you should refrain from telling people "what to get".
