Looks like he got dizzy or passed out.

Sucks either way.

 

[Link24]

Yeah for sure..... man that would suck. It looks like the bar landed on his neck

I sometimes get a nasty headrush when I start a heavy shoulder-pressing motion.

Yeah, last time I was using the wheelbarrel deadlift machine with about 550, I blacked out on the way up. I somehow got to the top of the lift but I know everything from the bottom to almost the top was just blackness.

Kinda freaked me out. lol

 

[xjsynx]

Ouch.

WTF

 

[bioman]

LMAO!

Ah cell phones.

It's something to do with how it effects you blood pressure. My mother and I tend to get dizzy and whatnot if we stand up too quickly from sitting down. We also both have naturally low BP.

I always feel like blacking out after a heavy set of squats

 

[bioman]

Yeah I was on Drive and a few other vasodialators so that might have been it...OR just the fact I was maxing out.

It was weird either way.

Lucky for the cell phone dude he is not very strong so the dumbell was light. On second thought its not surprising he is not strong considering he answers his phone in the middle of sets.lol

 

[bioman]

Yeah, those 15 pounders are brutal when you're busy. lol

 

[Trauma1]

Anytime you strain excessively with a big lift it causes increased pressure on the vagus nerve which can cause a sudden drop in heart rate and blood pressure. It's called a vasovagal response....essentialy if severe enough you pass out due to the sudden decrease in heart rate casing lack of cerebral perfusion. It's actually used medically quite often for many conditions.

That guy with the damn cellphone is an idiot haha...... Heavy or not it would still hurt though lol

 

[Iron Warrior]

That guy with the cell phone will be a future Darwin award recipient LOL

 

[machine528]

I come close to blacking out when i do decline benchpress.

 

[AE14]

I love watching these fools on cell phones. Makes me realize survival of the fittest is so spot on

 

[Link24]

I think Im going to film this douche at my gym who likes to talk on his cell more than actually work out at the gym. He puts his phone down inbetween sets and sh*t so annoying
