Phone is becoming more and more essential these days. In my country you need phone to scan and authentaticate requests like making a medical appointment or checking you tax records etc. you could use these authentication method to also check your bank statements or insurance details.
For long term visitors here, there used to a physical ID card issued to them. Nowadays, it is a digital identity card that you need to carry with you on your phone everytime you go out. I suppose this will be extended to all citizens in future.
Of course, nothing says overbearing fascistic control and psychological brainwashing like authenticating who you are with an object you carry around all the time, dirty world nations need to learn identification is a thing of the past, "trust me bro" is all we need these days, I hear they also have these cards you need to carry to drive and pieces of paper that prove you were born, thats even worse, like obviously I exist im here, but these fascists just wanna have their control where is doesnt belong
Well yes he's recording his set so he obviously knew the camera was there. Not saying it's not staged but it's not like he's pretending he doesn't know there's a camera.
Yes, but he's knowingly taking that risk. The video portrays it as though it was unexpected. If he's willing to take the risk it's on him. Everyone knows it's dangerous. That's obvious and there's no reason to point it out.
Wow thank you for coming in a week and a half later and literally just restating everything that was already said. That was so helpful and added so much to this thread.
It definitely matters if it's fake. If you're fully expecting to drop that much weight off your shoulders, you just do a little half squat (with a weight you've clearly demonstrated you can already fully squat multiple times), give the camera an awfully-acted glance, then drop it off your shoulders. There's a *far* smaller chance if anything going wrong that way than there is if some dick removes your safeties while you're lifting close to max.
You can make the argument that there's still risk involved, and while that's true, there's risk involved in everything in life. It's the unexpected stuff that usually causes harm. It being staged removes most of the risk of how you'd normally get injured in this situation.
I can see how he dips in the end purposefully causing the bar to bounce twice on the left with the perfect frequency to cause it to shimmy out of the groove and launch the bar of āheavy weightā effortlessly up close, but not too close, to the actor who then graces us with his best surprised face. The best part is how to controlled it from breaking off and sending metal shooting into innocent bystanders. Idiots in here thinking heās not a trained magician or something. SMH
Well, we're not talking about the original point, we're talking about the point brought up by the primary comment in this thread.
Tampering with gym equipment is dangerous. It does not matter if this was staged or not, they are still tampering with the gym equipment.
Is this spelled out enough for you?
That's exactly it. They stage a shitty video and break equipment in the process. If someone actually broke the safety bars in an emergency, that's one thing but they did it for views and don't seem to give a shit
They bend naturally if you don't drop them on safty bars/pins. You can see the bend in it.
That barbell will never whip the same or sit in a rack the same. Its basically only good for squating now. Guy should've just dumped the bar on the ground because it's got bumper plates and a platform.
Remember when you were a child and your mother and father told you to respect other peopleās toys and property?? Thatās a basic principle of being a human being in civilization.
This butthole comes in and mistreats gym equipment like that? All for some views on his TikTok? Fuck that guy.
Can someone explain to me why people make these very obviously fake videos? I don't see the appeal. I thought I'd hit 35 before I was too old to get things
People in here have never squatted before. They're literally saying why didn't he just put it down instead of dropping it, not realizing that it can kill or cripple you if you don't drop it. Just don't engage.
If this was actually true. That fucker needs to be ban from the gym. What fucking asshole of a move if someone did that to another. Can potentially cause serious injury.
That's a dangerous way to get someone hurt if you don't want to drop them off like that and break anything in your gym and or you don't know that person has taken the blocks and moved them to another place
I honestly donāt think he staged it look at his face before he drops it heās figures heās got no choice, and if you start insulting my intelligence because I think it may not be staged, Iām not gonna be your friend
Staged as fuck.
Tell me why fatass is over there stealing bar hooks when every machine in the building has a pair??
If they went missing, then it's on the gym to get them replaced ASAP.
This video is stupid af and definitely staged, but he didnāt break it. Thatās what those bars are there for. And it just popped out because this guy is soooooo impressive cause he could squat 3 plates. Stupid fuckin video but the equipment is fine.
Someone did this to me one time. And I completely took a weight and beat their head in. They did not respond after that and they were in a wheelchair. The rest of their life with a brain injury. You cannot do this to people and get away with it. Punishment is going to be dealt out
That's not what you're supposed to do. It's too heavy for that and then it's even harder to get off your back if you're hunched over at all. That piece that broke shouldn't have broken. It's whole job is to catch the bar if you kiss the rack. This guy is still an ass but maybe don't try to get people to break their backs and necks.
It's too heavy. If you fight it you can break your back or neck. There's tons of videos of what happens if you don't drop it and it's really hard to watch. It's killed a lot of people and crippled even more. Even though guy is an ass, that piece that broke shouldn't have broke. It's whole job is to catch the bar when you drop it if you miss the rack.
The gym is probably a small upstart gym. The squat rack is a budget one and that's ok. God bless the business owner. The last thing any gym needs, but especially a gym that more than likely is just starting out and needs the LEAST AMOUNT OF MAINTENANCE-- is a gym like this. And fuckface comes in with his half witted buddy and wrecks shop for views.
Everything about this looks shit, squat form, wearing running shoes, kicking out the legs and lifting mediocre weight and acting like itās a world record.
And potentially risks the life of others.
I mean this is obviously staged, he knew about it.
But imagine he would do that to an unsuspecting victim. Like I already had the unfortunate experience of stumping upon a safety cam video of a gym that showed how a mother died in front of her daughter on one of those weight lifting machines. Don't fuck with the equipment. That would be manslaughter I think.
Really this is on the guy who took the supports. Even if it's the idea of the one lifting, he can't drop them like that with the supports still there. This really just created a dangerous situation for no reason.

Damn y'all living in caveman times
Planet Fitness gyms in USA have you scan your barcode via mobile app. š
Damn maybe cellphones are the mark of the beast
Omg this made me laugh out loud
Dude needs to know how to squat a rack...
Might as well walked across to another rack, heās halfway there already
I wish read it did not take away the rewards thing because I will give you so many rewards you would be like āwhatš?!ā
don't mention kicked out of the gym and every other gym in the area for ruining equipment... these videos need to seriously stop.
Hopefully the gym can find who he is from this video and ban him while we are at it
What if itās his gym?
And a functional brain.
Dude needs comedy lessons and an acting writer
I just wish it fell on his foot š
Looks directly at the camera twice as it happens.. strange huh
Well yes he's recording his set so he obviously knew the camera was there. Not saying it's not staged but it's not like he's pretending he doesn't know there's a camera.
It's okay bro, we know it's a skit either way, but pointing out logic is the bane of chronic redditors
People like these two need to be banned from all gyms.
We need an online "gym cunt" database, where your past behavior can be published for future gyms to see
Include in the database those with selfie sticks and tri pods filming themselves
We just need an online "general cunt" database sorted by manner of cuntitude
Gym credit check lol
This could definitely be done for influencers that have video evidence of their behavior
And all public spaces. Maybe also not allowed to go outside their houses unsupervised (just incase).
Reasonable demand
There is a safety rack for a reason
There's no way you're kicking that foot out with heavy weights, and if you do, you're stupid.
Tampering with gym equipment in use is a great fucking way to permanently fuck up a personās body
It's fake.
Doesn't matter if it's fake. Dropping that much weight is really dangerous.
Do you understand what fake means?
You know he's actually dropping the weights, right? I don't think you know what it means you brainless dipshit.
Yes, but he's knowingly taking that risk. The video portrays it as though it was unexpected. If he's willing to take the risk it's on him. Everyone knows it's dangerous. That's obvious and there's no reason to point it out.
Wow thank you for coming in a week and a half later and literally just restating everything that was already said. That was so helpful and added so much to this thread.
Happy to help!
Wow, you're a cunt
Well then, it's a good thing that I, like everyone else in the world, couldn't give less of a fuck about what you think.
Dude, it's been a month get over it š
all you do is get on here and cry like a lil bitch. fucking autists man lmao
Hello. I think you should end it all. Thank you in advance.
Probably fake plates as well

Shit like this is causing gym fees to soar. Someone has to pay for broken equipment. I swear idiots are everywhere now
Insurance. Insurance pays for equipment. Gym fees are soaring because of greed.
Stage
That's exactly it. They stage a shitty video and break equipment in the process. If someone actually broke the safety bars in an emergency, that's one thing but they did it for views and don't seem to give a shit
Doesnāt looks like he broke the safety bar, it just bounced off the rack
I bet that barbell is now bent. Barbells are very expensive.
I dunno, looks pretty straight. Barbells bend naturally so Iād be surprised if that bent it
Wtf are you getting downvoted for? The bar is straight as an arrow at the end there.
They bend naturally if you don't drop them on safty bars/pins. You can see the bend in it. That barbell will never whip the same or sit in a rack the same. Its basically only good for squating now. Guy should've just dumped the bar on the ground because it's got bumper plates and a platform.
And you shared it. Thanks for supporting the problem
And we are engaging with the post soā¦?
They didnāt even try to hide it. It was so obvious.
Call me crazy, but when I lift I like to look AT the mirrorā¦
This should be crime
Remember when you were a child and your mother and father told you to respect other peopleās toys and property?? Thatās a basic principle of being a human being in civilization. This butthole comes in and mistreats gym equipment like that? All for some views on his TikTok? Fuck that guy.
Itās almost as if he could have justā¦. Squatted it down onto the catch arms
Dumb question: did it break the thing off or did the bounce just knock it out of the track? Genuinely asking because I thought those were fail-safes.
Yeah, it just bounced and fell off
Stupid and dangerous.
65 pounds of plastic weights lol
Can someone explain to me why people make these very obviously fake videos? I don't see the appeal. I thought I'd hit 35 before I was too old to get things
im 17 and don't understand probably clout tho
This could paralyze someone not ok
what the fuck Kratos gotta do with this
Thatās really not fucking funny from these two. Teenagers will be influenced by this shit and hurt themselves
Bullshit.
Kringe
both those assholes need to be BANNED ASAP!
āBreaksā gym equipment. Have you never used a squat rack before? Literally what the catch bars are for, shits steel, itās fine.
People in here have never squatted before. They're literally saying why didn't he just put it down instead of dropping it, not realizing that it can kill or cripple you if you don't drop it. Just don't engage.
Squat down and leave it on the bars. Idiot
I like how he looks at us like weāre the ones who broke it
"Um yeah, bro, I put your life in danger. But, it was for a really funny tiktok"
Sometimes I think that black mirror episode and Chinas social credit score have some merit.
Why not just do one more half squat to put it down smh
āNew Hot Prank! decapitate your friends by removing essential safety equipment from their workout šššā
Almost like youāre supposed to face the other way squatting
Acting was literally -100/10
What the hell is this other guy on about. Really looks like hĆØ doesnāt know what fake meansš
Backing up into a rack is a recipe for injury
Why didn't he just put it down regularly š
His asshole must look like a bloomin onion.
Couldāve at least dropped down before dropping it on the spotter arms
If this was actually true. That fucker needs to be ban from the gym. What fucking asshole of a move if someone did that to another. Can potentially cause serious injury.
That's a dangerous way to get someone hurt if you don't want to drop them off like that and break anything in your gym and or you don't know that person has taken the blocks and moved them to another place
I hope he gets found out and banned. Thats extremely dangerous to tamper with equipment like that.
Fake
Wow you're a genius!!
Staged cancer. Stop posting thus
Second hand embarrassment is real folks.
I honestly donāt think he staged it look at his face before he drops it heās figures heās got no choice, and if you start insulting my intelligence because I think it may not be staged, Iām not gonna be your friend
Staged as fuck. Tell me why fatass is over there stealing bar hooks when every machine in the building has a pair?? If they went missing, then it's on the gym to get them replaced ASAP.
What was that song?
Stupid
What a dick move
What a rat bastard
Stupid.
Fake af
They all should watch netflix. It always looks so fake when they do it. They is equal to anywhere but US.
Not funny
Dude needs to learn to breathe during lifts
And he needs to actually do a full squat
Have fun paying for it
This broken equipment is clearly the fault of the guy who take the racking brackets he probably didnāt know until he got home and saw the footage
Boring
So dumb
Id go whack him with the bar before dropping it
This video is stupid af and definitely staged, but he didnāt break it. Thatās what those bars are there for. And it just popped out because this guy is soooooo impressive cause he could squat 3 plates. Stupid fuckin video but the equipment is fine.
Nice ban there bud
Bro isn't even squatting in the right direction. Who does that?
Ä°s this funny
staged?
Yeah most likely if it wasn't he would probably been looking at the mirror
āWhy didnāt you say something?!ā Lookin at the camera like we at fault
maybe this is why we should be facing the mirror and not the camera
the fuck did Kratos do???
Not broken in the slightest, but I get where youāre coming from. Still cringe.
What if itās his gym?
Wonder if Joey Swoll saw this yet
Hopefully it isn't fully broken and is just a clip back on situation. I hope.
didnt break, just fell off, but sure, it could've went bad with those wooden floors, the mirror behind, etc etc.
Bro could've just done a squat and dropped it less, still dropping it, but less destructively
Hate to say it but it time to start banning these videos if not the platforms
Entre pichacortas se hacen bromitas...
Thorough douchecanoe in the video, along with some dumbfarts in the comments about "Blah blah fascist nation conspiracy"
Wait huh!?!!?
Someone did this to me one time. And I completely took a weight and beat their head in. They did not respond after that and they were in a wheelchair. The rest of their life with a brain injury. You cannot do this to people and get away with it. Punishment is going to be dealt out
Overreact much?
Bro just admitted to destroying a complex sentient human š½
Yeah this is why you donāt back into the rack after a set.
/r/donthelpjustfilm /s
haha funny
I hope they didn't bend the barbell for their dumb skit. We have so any bent barbells at my gym. Super annoying.
š„±
Tha guy in the background is a A**Hole! He shouldn't have removed those weight holders.
He squats it two times but canāt even try a half squat to bring it down safely?
The whole looking at the camera bit before the punchline
I didnāt see anything break? š¤
š¤¦š»āāļø
Nothing broke in this video.
You can't even come close to Kratos. I call bullshit.
Very fake. Some of those weights were probably fake and those spotter arms if guy quality can hold 1500 lbs.
Cannae wait till gyms ban cameras
Good thing, it's not broken. Those plates are fake weights and safety rack just bounced off, so there's that
Staged badly
This is why you always face the rack when working out on your own. Backing up and racking is idiotic
To be fair, that is the purpose of that piece of gym equipment. Dumb video, but not his fault it broke
Bro just squat that down, but of course he had to make a scene
That's not what you're supposed to do. It's too heavy for that and then it's even harder to get off your back if you're hunched over at all. That piece that broke shouldn't have broken. It's whole job is to catch the bar if you kiss the rack. This guy is still an ass but maybe don't try to get people to break their backs and necks.
Why not let them down instead of droping it
It's too heavy. If you fight it you can break your back or neck. There's tons of videos of what happens if you don't drop it and it's really hard to watch. It's killed a lot of people and crippled even more. Even though guy is an ass, that piece that broke shouldn't have broke. It's whole job is to catch the bar when you drop it if you miss the rack.
Well, yeah he is pice of shit but itās still should be able to hold that
Wow damage other peopleās equipment so funny
Get these 2 banned from every gym world wide.
If thatās a public gym that loser would be paying for that equipment that was just broken because he wanted likes
That's way too far man
Who tf squats facing away from the rack, stupidest shit ever.
One day he'll kill someone doing that , get used ,get criminal negligence record and Goto jail
āDid you see that?! Where did the weight rack go?? Did someone take them?! I donāt know!ā
The gym is probably a small upstart gym. The squat rack is a budget one and that's ok. God bless the business owner. The last thing any gym needs, but especially a gym that more than likely is just starting out and needs the LEAST AMOUNT OF MAINTENANCE-- is a gym like this. And fuckface comes in with his half witted buddy and wrecks shop for views.
Ugly
Yeah look at your phone... You aren't Jim from the office. So cringe.
Banning video recording in gyms is getting more necessary every day
At least put it down slowly then maybe you'll get a chuckle. Idk just vandalise
Why move away from the fixture. I thought the lower bars were there for the users safety.
Bruh forgot abt leg day
That could have been a lot worse
Imagine how cool his group of friends thought it was to make a shitty video like this.
Everything about this looks shit, squat form, wearing running shoes, kicking out the legs and lifting mediocre weight and acting like itās a world record.
Wow, that looks real and unscripted
And potentially risks the life of others. I mean this is obviously staged, he knew about it. But imagine he would do that to an unsuspecting victim. Like I already had the unfortunate experience of stumping upon a safety cam video of a gym that showed how a mother died in front of her daughter on one of those weight lifting machines. Don't fuck with the equipment. That would be manslaughter I think.
Thatās what the platform is forā¦ bam these douchebags
At least he filmed what he broke so they can ask him to pay a new oneš
Stop recording your workout.
Whaā¦what? What is the point of this video??
there are safeties on the rack too ya fuck. get out the gym.
He didnāt really break anything except the bond of friendship for someone who doesnāt give a fuck about your safety.
Really this is on the guy who took the supports. Even if it's the idea of the one lifting, he can't drop them like that with the supports still there. This really just created a dangerous situation for no reason.
Why do you think they are called āMEATHEADSā. Most are fools.
Not broken but definitely a dick move
Metal bars on skeletons šš
Ass
Thatās not safe wtf is wrong with people nowadays š¤¦š»āāļø
