Justyn Vicky dies while lifting 210 kgs weights bar
A Bali-based bodybuilder passed away when a regular squat at the gym went disastrously wrong.
Justyn Vicky, a personal trainer who was also a member of the gym, tragically passed away while carrying out a back squat. When the accident occurred in Sanur, Bali, the bodybuilder was reportedly attempting to squat 460 pounds.
The 33-year-old man from East Java, Indonesia, is shown on camera groaning and attempting to stretch his legs as the hefty bar presses against his shoulders.
But in a startling turn, the weighted stack collapses onto the back of his neck, forcing his head forward at an unnatural angle. The footage of the incident has already become very popular online.
What Transpired Inside The Gym To Justyn Vicky?
Justyn Vicky was reportedly performing a 210 kg back squat on July 15 and had difficulty with the exercise ever since he began. But as he lowered himself, the weight bar slipped, putting pressure on his neck, which claimed his life.
Vicky was assisted in performing the exercise by a spotter, according to the incident’s footage. Vicky slumped forward with the bar rolling by the back of his neck and landed on the spotter’s lap.
Vicky was admitted to the hospital right after, but despite numerous attempts by medical professionals to save him, he passed away.
This situation is quite dangerous and has happened to several bodybuilders before. But. luckily, they survived.
When powerlifting champion Jason Whittaker once attempted to squat 400 kg, the barbell rolled through his head and to the front as he struggled with the weight. He was unharmed thanks to his spotter, who acted immediately to prevent serious injuries.
Bradley Martin, a fitness influencer, was pressing a woman until she fell on him. Martyn had to be taken to the hospital, where he received around 10 stitches inside his mouth. Darren Watkins Jr. was trapped on the barbell while performing an exercise, but he managed to escape. He is a known YouTube personality. Dumbbell bench presses caused Charles Griffen, another bodybuilder, to tear his pec.
