    I've never seen that technique before. He must be trying to shock his dormant fibers. I'm gonna give it a whirl tomorrow at the gym.

    if you pay attention to that idiots hands, you can clearly see he is just resting the bar in his palms and not really holding it down with his fingers, when i bench i hold that bar hard as ****, thats his own ignorance.

    Wouldn't he have had to hold on to the bar in order for the spotter to um.. spot?

    I like the thumbless grip for pressing.. It alleviates stress on my wrist.

    What he was using however was the brain-less grip

    The spotter was not at fault - he's there to assist, not act as a guardian angel.

    Dumbass looks like he let go. Must have bust some bones. I had a mate who had a detached sternum once - every breath is agony and you better hope you never sneeze.

    This is what he wrote....
    "My friend posted this ... I am the guy getting crushed. Amazingly, I walked away only bruised. It wasn't too much weight (it was 305lbs, personal best is 340lbs). My grip is to blame, not my spotter. I've used the thumb-under grip since I started lifting in high school. Needless to say, I've switched to the wrap around thumb grip."

    LOLLLLLLLLLL....You guys will never believe me. I was there. That's my friend from school. That happened in August at UNLV gym. We were having a powerlifting competition for shit's and kicks. That was obviously the bench press day.

    Surprisingly, he walked away from that with just a little bruise on his chest. His problem was grip he was using. If you look carefully you can see that his thumb placement caused the bar to drop.

    Oh man , that's a trip...i've seen this thread for some time but never clicked on it. I'm lua***ng so hard right now. It was definitely a shocking moment.

    Looks like 305 to me, I can see what looks like 5's outside the 35 lb plates.
    In any case I hope he's OK. His grip is to blame, you should always bench press with your thumb around the bar to prevent this from happening.

    Again, that is my friend. Believe me....that was the talk of the gym for the whole summer. He definitely changed his grip after that day.
