I had lifted weights for years before I finally worked up the courage to do squats with a free bar, mostly because my 9th grade health teacher told my class a story about a horrible squatting accident. No, it wasn’t a shart or even an ass tulip, but a poor kid who fell forward and had all his teeth smashed out. Is that worse than an ass tulip? Hmmm, maybe not.

In any event, throwing around a ton of weight is a dangerous thing to do.  One minor slip or lapse in concentration, and you could find yourself wearing a diaper for the rest of your adult life.  After the jump, take a look at some horrible yet morbidly hilarious videos of weightlifters who probably wish they hadn’t tried to lift so much weight.
