Article: Learning To Spot Correctly

I would like to add, reference the 'B' picture above, if you're going to squat like 'b*tch', by all means you should be spotted by one. ;)
 
Spotters are for pussies. If the weight drops on you, just pray to Jesus. If he doesn't show up, it means you were to big of bitch. Jesus doesn't like bitches and pussies.

How do I spot a deadlift?

I've been training solo for 20 years, so I may not be privy to new practices, but I can't imagine a scenario when you'd spot a deadlift. There's no danger if the lifter drops the weight. The only possible injury is a blown knee or spinal issue, in which case dropping the bar is your out.

Because of the amount of weight, I'd think failure is failure. I would never want to force reps on deads. That's begging for a bad back injury.
