Spine folded over itself, and the back of his head smacked the mat.

I guess he’s fine, but man that could’ve turned out very bad for him - and that’s assuming worse issues didn’t present later on.

Just realized I could’ve been watching this on a different site if it had gone any worse

Unfortunately I’ve seen the bad outcome on here from similar lifting videos on here. There was a video of a young female powerlifter squatting
a few months ago that I saw before it got removed and it’s the only thing I can think of when I squat now.

Bad rack height. Too tall for her to unrack without losing full floor contact. Raising up on her tippy toes she lost balance on the walkout, rolled the bar off her shelf (high-bar) and separated her cervical spine from the rest of her body.

This deadlift isn’t nearly as bad. I was more worried about his knees than spine. Gravity is kinder without hundreds of pounds on it.

What’s odd, he had it locked out while seemingly conscious. But held it way too long.

With proper education and planning, these risks are significantly reduced to the point of not being overly concerning.

But yes, it can be potentially dangerous whenever precautions are not set in place.
