'I thought I could get the 6th one' - Gym freak nearly gets his THROAT CRUSHED by 205-lb barbell
- 2 years ago
This was the unnerving moment Juniber Mendoza found out how important of a role a spotter plays when it comes to chest presses.
The footage shows Juniber performing the aforementioned exercise with his girlfriend working as his spotter.
The problem arises when the subject goes longer than he should have, which renders him unable to properly support the heavy barbell. At that point, his partner intervenes but almost drops the bar on his throat.
"I struggled toward the end of my set and it all went wrong," Juniber said. "Thankfully, no one was hurt."
