It was my buddy's first time doing Hammer Strength shoulder presses with maybe two plates a side. He couldn't budge it out of the bottom.
He's a brutally strong dude, so me and our other training partner are looking at each other wondering what the hell was going on.
Right then, we see the handles beginning to bend inward! That's when we realized he was pressing perpendicular to the way it was supposed to be going.
Judging by the veins in his chest popping, it might have been an effective exercise for him, albeit with a very limited range of motion.

Funniest thing I've seen:
A large, obviously accomplished lifter was front squatting a little over 400lbs for reps and a geeky, skinny kid goes up to him between sets and says, "Um, excuse me, but I think you're doing those wrong. The bar is supposed to be behind you." It felt rude to laugh but a few people did and he was blushing and confused. He learned what a front squat was that day though so all good.
Funniest thing I've done:
I'm sad to say this, but I've eatin' sh#* on the treadmill. I thought my foot was off the track but only made it half way on to the frame of the treadmill instead. My shoe caught the still running track at the toe, twisted my ankle inwards and down I went, first on to the treadmill and then the floor behind it as it spit me out in the clumsy trip of shame.

I was running on the treadmill with my head phones in and I just previously bought a new pre workout out. The pre gave me the most explosive ****s and gas you could imagine. So, while i was running I could feel a large fart coming so naturally I was squeezing my checks trying to hold her in, but my efforts were fruitless. I let off one big rip and I swear for 8 more steps I let off farts. I'm an optimist so I'm thinking maybe no one heard it but as I look to my right the owner of the gym was staring at me with this look on his face like he saw a train wreck, and I look to my left and there's a woman holding her nose shaking her head. I continued running of course.

Lifting with a buddy at his strongman gym while he's home on leave. Really hardcore place with only a small number of regulars, all brutally strong. So were at the gym and notice this kid start coming around and he starts tellin' us how he's deadlift 650 & overhead presses 275 for reps. He's maybe 5'6'' and 155 soaking wet. I catch him on the platform later looking like it's costing him his left nut to hoist 315 from the floor for a double.
Next day we're all near the dbells (which go to 200) and after half-ass rowing some 100s he walks by and tells us, "Dang man, I'ma have ta tell Rick to get some bigger dumbbells for me. Jus' did the whole line; I'ma have to bring in my 240lb ones from home if he doesn't cuz I can't be gettin' a good workout with this light weight." Oh brother.
As for me, the number of times I've ripped loud, prolonged farts in the squat rack is untold. I remember the first time I front squat 275 I almost dropped it I started laughing so hard coming up.
