I witnessed a near miss yesterday at the gym. This guy was trying to bench press 145 with a underhand grip, after about two reps he lost balance causing the bar to tip over, spilling the plates on the floor. Of course this caused the other side to tip dropping the rest of the weights. Luckily he was not hurt (with exception of his pride). I have also seen plenty of people placing too much weight on the bar and having it stuck on them (myself included).

I've walked in a few times to see some people being carried out on stretchers because they've passed out.....

The most recent incident I've been involved in was actually when I was using the LA Fitness in Orlando(off OBT) while I was on vacation there.

I was walking in the parking lot and when I got up to the sidewalk entrance I heard some wheels peelin' out behind me and saw this big azz gold 4Runner coming right for me in reverse. I sprinted in through the door and moved over to the left side. The woman driving the car(big surprise...jk) tried gaining control and swerved it to the left and it smashed into the side wall of the gym.

I was very fortunate that day that I hadn't been walking down that same way 20 seconds later because she prolly woulda ended my sh!t......
