MAN FLIPS OVER BARBELL IN UNEXPECTED DEADLIFT FAIL
WITH VID
By Divij Mayer
Check out this hilarious gym mishap as a routine set of Romanian deadlifts takes a dramatic turn.
Juan Barbosa, from São Paulo, Brazil, was training at the gym and using figure-8 lifting straps for the first time when things suddenly went wrong.
The video shows Juan lowering the barbell when it catches on a weight plate that had been placed on the floor to stop it from rolling away. As his grip slips, the strap remains attached to his wrist, causing him to flip right over the bar and crash onto the floor.
Unable to free himself, Juan could only laugh while stuck beneath the setup until a fellow gymgoer stepped in to help him get loose.
The unexpected fail quickly had viewers laughing along with him.
One user commented: ‘Well, that was for a rest, lying down already.’ Another added: ‘What really hurts is the shame at the time, right?’
