    What Anon isn’t telling us is that they said “overhead press” but what he heard was “hydraulic press.”

    How do you fuck up overhead press that badly? I’ve had close calls with other lifts, but if I max out and fail overhead, the only thing that happens is I can’t lift the bar.

        Step2: start with 100 pound weights on your first try

      My guess is that this person watched two YouTube videos of Olympic lifters do snatch and clean and though, “that’s not that hard! I’ll jerk that weight up there! 🏋️”

      Narrator: it was that hard.

        That’s not an overhead press…

    This happened to me, but from catching myself when I fell skating.

    It didn’t hurt at all until I wondered why my wrist wouldn’t rotate and looked down. I saw this, then it started to hurt.

    The best part was the skating rink trying to get me to retroactively sign a liability waiver, and me telling them I broke my dominant arm (I didn’t).

    Well, the best part was the hospital refusing to set it, then the orthopedist refusing to belive the hospital didn’t set it, so I had to have it surgically set a week later.

      Why would they refuse to set it? Your insurance wouldn’t cover it? Doctor without a clue? Shift change that left you between doctors in a room, alone, for 6 & 1/2 hours?

        They didn’t have a pediatric orthopedist there, and for some reason that was necessary for a broken arm.

      Fell of a bike, broke my radius head in the elbow and I am realizing now I was lucky.

    Wrongly, it would appear.

      FYI, an overhead press should happen in a gym, not a factory floor.

        Correct, a hydraulic press is what you’d find in a factory.
