Actually there's a third pain. The pain of breaking every ligament in both knees under 1000 pounds of steel.
Thank you for saying this. I was thinking the same thing.
I can’t imagine the pain. I’d die
Next time he won’t ego lift
@@smashb3766 that's kind of a stupid take. It's literally a strength competition.
@@dylanmorgan5589 so what, it’s still ego lifting. Just because it’s a big guy doing it don’t mean it can’t be ego lifting
I would be scared to death to deadlift or squat any amount of weight after that. Props to that guy for pushing forward 💪🏻
I‘m not a doc but i‘m betting that what he‘s doing is short sighted. He must be at a way higher risk of innury now. And the second time something like this happens it just has to be worse than the first time around. Just guesses.
@@shikeridoo he's building up tolerance 😀
Inspirational man great job
Its like that one video of a guys biceps getting torn on a curl bench, i still feel scared doing them because of it
@@shikeridoo bettering his knees is short sighted? Don’t understand your statement. Would be be better off unable to bend his knees and not walking?
wow that last sentence is everything
Look where his discipline got him, two f'd knees lol
@@dantheman1337 better than being a soy boii
@@benbrenizer7712 that’s got to be the most dumbest statement you’ve said. Well good luck with your 6 months therapy and good luck in covering your medical bills in America
@@dantheman1337 you can twist anything and make it sound stupid. That being said, the idea still stands, pursue your dreams or look back with regret.
@@Uri0000 if everybody started to think like you did there would be no compititive sport. Every thing requires sacrifice for the path to success.
Ngl that doctor looked like they just asked their friend to put on a suit and pretend to be a doctor for this video 😂
Lmaooo like the history Channel alien expert guy
@@mumiaali4821 lol yeah exactly 🤣
Dude is a straight chad
After having my dad snap his femoral tendon and seeing the pain he was in and the struggle with pt. I can say with absolute certainty this man, has more balls and determination than some soldiers I’ve met.
good thing there isn't a femoral tendon. Use the correct name
@@richardsmith5803 I’m just using the term the actual doctor used. Now whether it was correctly or not has nothing to do with me. But maybe tell that to his doctor that said it. 🤷🏾♀️
Ooops excuse me you are correct it’s not the tendon it’s the ligament. Or in complete long terms the medial quadriceps tendon- femoral ligament.
Are you a "soldier"?
@@ChrisP3000x no but my father and majority of my family have a military background. I also have plenty of military friends
I had my patellar tedon completely torn, 4 weeks in a cast, and 4 weeks after that I was running again...I was 16 at the time... 38 now... Squatting 245 pounds 😅
Two types of pain: pain of discipline and pain of regret. Amazing words! Like a true fighter. Wish you best!
He suffered neither in this case. He suffered the pain of stupidity.
The pain of hospital fees and daily check ups.
Yea he obviously didnt have to work for a living and had more than plenty on the bank that it wasnt a problem. Anyone living that lifestyle could do exactly what he did.
I'm never bending my knees again
Same, fucking hell the way his knees dropped has me terrified. My legs are staying straight for the rest or my life now.
Do that and i guarantee you that you'll get some type of an injury in the knee or tendons surrounding it. The best thing to prevent injuries like these is to do high reps with lower weight in full range of motion. I hope you try this advice sometime in your life and see for yourself how strong and resilient the body can get.
@@bojanvelkoski3275 I don’t think he was serious
@@djrobinson8859 Yh you're probably right
@@bojanvelkoski3275 lightweight with more reps is besttttttttttt
"There's two pains in this life, the pain of discipline or the pain of regret. You get to choose which one" ... Fuck, that one is going to stick with me forever.
Thank you, you Legends!
Yes I agree. *Puts down phone*
Ok now where the bag of chips at?
@@1234567895182 lol too true
No there are also the pain of broken bones, neuropathic pain etc.
@@orkunakman1541 I get you. But that pain is temporary. What he was getting at is the long-term pain you'll feel after an injury. You can sit around the rest of your life feeling regret, or you can get up and fight against the odds, push through any physical barriers that you or others have placed in front of you. And exercise discipline to achieve something.
Having lived through a near death accident, and having heard doctors tell me what I could or couldn't do; these words perfectly describe the mindset one needs to take to heal and regain independence.
There are all kinds of other pains. That’s why this quote will not take off.
Them knees said “nah I’m out”
Just a reminder,your body can be strong,but has limits that may be closer than you think
cope weakling
I'm suprised such an incredible recovery is possible! Makes me feel better about my damaged back...
Dang, same thought went through my head about my back 😆
Find a good physical therapist
@@12345andrews agreed. A good PT can make a world of difference
Its possible because he could afford what seems to be one of the best physical therapists in the world and to not have to work for 9 months if at all. Its unilaterally a money gap.
You with your back still have to work every day and likely cant pay that guy 1k an hour or more for 9 months to help fix you and then sit around resting for the other 23 hours of the day.
*New fear unlocked*
My dad fell down a flight of steps and dislocated his right knee cap.. went to the hospital, they told him he was fine, wrapped his knee and sent him on his way. My dad was not okay. Throughout the rest of the day, he prob fell about 8 times thanks to his weakened right knee. During the process of all the calls, he tore damn near EVERY ligament in both knees. Had to have emergency knee surgery. Hard straight leg casts on both legs then those movement limiting bracers. He's back up and walking and weight lifting again, leg extensions he can't really do any any more
ok
It's amazing he healed in 9 months, ligaments and tendons take a long time
Any of those tears by themselves could take up 6-9 months. Tearing all of THAT and recovering in the same time is crazy but I guess his situation was more dire.
"Meanwhile the guys who skip leg day praising themselves"
“There are two types of pain into his world. Pain that hurts and pain that alters.”
Denzel Washington- The Equalizer
I tore my ACL on my right knee in 2015 playing soccer. I was in the 8th grade. Now I'm 22, 1 year 6 months into powerlifting. My max for deadlift is 455 and 345 for squats. I don't notice anything wrong in deadlifts (I've pulled 455 conventional, 425 sumo), however, for squats it's just a lot of mental fear. I don't necessarily max out on squats due to my ACL tear fear and other fears as well like a quad tendon tear. So I just shoot for triples. In competition or mock meets, my jumps for squats are also very small, maybe 10 lbs. My last meet I did, 315, 330, 341. People tend to judge me for that, but it's just fear based on that experience. I'm just happy and grateful to do what I love. For those that have suffered a similar injury or going through it, it takes time but it gets better. Just be smart and safe. You're better off adding 10-20 lbs per year to your squat, than potentially being under the knife again.
This is why I’d rather squat ATG with excellent technique than go for ridiculous weights with a half assed technique. Form over ego.
that’s “power” lifting for ya lol
Bro but this isnt half assed technique tho, it Just isnt ass to Grass sure
Pain of discipline / pain of regrets.
I'm 44 but it's the deepest and most motivational words i've ever heard
Theres the pain of discipline and then theres the pain of retearing every supporting ligament in both of your knees.
That's the difference between him and you...
@@busyrand yes! That the guy in the video will end up in a wheelchair again.
@@busyrand you shouldn't be praising stupidity by giving it the label of 'being brave'.
The human body is highly durable, but that doesn't mean there is no limit to how much abuse it can withstand.
@@arrenworden6226 Seeking high levels of accomplishment inherently involves risk. So yeah, that's the difference between him and you.
@@busyrand because ronnie Coleman is still competing right?
The fact he faced and did it again. Respect.
My take away, as someone that used to powerlift, spotters will never help in time.
New fear unlocked in the gym
Shit I am a physical therapist and when I saw the injury happen in the video I just cringed!!! even with all those spotters they couldn't stop the injury.
Unfortunately it is possible to experience the pain of both discipline AND regret if you really fuck up!
My man's unlocked NG+
It makes no sense why they do not lift in a safety cage. But then again, this environment is not where the rocket scientists hang out.
There's some pretty intelligent people on gyms though, my ex personal trainer had 15 degrees and spoke several languages.
in
It’s in a powerlifting meet which they have three judges judging the depth of the squat to verify it as a good lift. A safety cage would get in the view of the two side judges. In a powerlifting meet they’re also meant to have excellent spotters and like 5-7 of them. I’ve seen spotters catch 400kg squats before like it’s nothing lol these guys must be in a local meet
"A man's gotta know his limitations".
Pain of discipline or Pain of regret
Wonderful words
Lifting that heavy is unnecessary, I understand incidents like these are rare, but this guy went through a lot after being crippled, I am so happy he’s ok now I just hope he’s more careful next time.
A guy named Paul Jorden and some others suffered the same injuries from power squat lifts.
injury yes, but the video of a guy breaking his neck and dying is next level
What a warrior
Paul Jordan in 1977, same injury. As long as there is powerlifting...
I don't think he should ever be lifting any heavy weights again...Ligament repairs can't make them 100% to how they were before the surgery, there is a much higher risk of tearing again.
How did it happen and how was his form fixed to allow deadlifting 600+ after surgery?
Id be a tad traumatized unless the original issue was user error that couldve been prevented
That's the most motivating thing I've seen in a while
It should motivate you to not do something dumb like he did.
He’s a freaking champion!
I wish I could come to see you!
I’ve had arthritis my whole life, fused ankles, thr on my left, and my legs barely support me. I’m working on it, but it’s not going great. Your channel has helped me a bit. Thanks
The human body is not meant for that kind of weight
Pretty nice watching this before a squat session.
Damnit.
this dude actually gave a motivational line at the end
That must’ve been painful at its max
That end quote
Noel deyzel
Wow !!!! I’m coming back from a full quad rupture and let me tell you most pain for months !!!! That man we just watched is a beast and just getting out of bed
Adjusting the blanket
Let alone shower 🚿
Mannnnn sooooo many moments of wanting to give up but you cannot as your disabled and need to get better . It’s beyond rough and not jjst the body but the soul n heart . I pray you all stay safe and pray you all stay strong love ya Kia kaha
Respect, Inspirational 👏👏💪🏼💪🏼
PUT THAT ON A SHIRT so I can let everyone know I carry the words of wisdom without actually heeding it.
Bruh it was absolutely painful to even watch that. I’m just glad he’s doing better. I’m always focusing on Progressive overload but now I gotta prioritize my health first.
Got straight goosebumps from that last line, absolute legend
Powerful video
Ya he went down way to fast for his legs to be able to keep stability. I hope he can recover fully so he can squat that weight again.
I almost fell off my chair ...geeeeze.... I was not ready
That last quote tho
Inspirational. Congratulations and thank you.
Whatta a words at the end ... Was priceless actually..
I choose to squad intelligently and not play with my health.
Good quote but there's no reason to do squats, deadlifts or any other heavy compound exercises
This is so encouraging to me. I just Tore both Rotator Cuffs and was worried about how I’m going to work. Praise God for this Healing.
I wish I didn't see this
Some folk literally cannot be stopped
Some people don’t learn
This isn’t a happy story. This is a story of a guy who was given a second chance and decided to do the same thing the landed him in an injury. Why you would go back to deadlifting that much is just foolish. This guy is going to be in a wheelchair by the time he’s 50. It’s sad.
True
Yeaaa this is why I don’t ever want to powerlift
That's why they call it snacp city.
why he got such bad injury? going too heavy?
Glad it was the legs and not the neck. Could of been worse.
Moral of the story: Drink milk, walk under the sun, don't skip leg day, and eat vegetables and meat
Why vegetables?
How did this happen? Surely it was a relatively similar working weight like not 200% of his 1RM. Did he mis groove very badly causing the fall? Amazing story tho and he’s gonna come back stronger mentally and eventually physically!
Probably trying to show off in front of his bros
I wondered that too. Like how does that even happen? I imagine gear is a factor. It causes the muscles to grow faster than connective tissue can adapt.
I'm wondering the same
The tiny toothpick legs should be a clue.
They actually describe it in another video in this channel.(ua-cam.com/video/56e6h129sxU/v-deo.html) He went slightly above his PR. Your knee is at the most risk of an acl tear when is flexed at 15-30 degrees. When you go above your max strength or if there’s an imbalance in quads vs hams, the weight above that relies on your ligaments. In this case it was too much , the ligament broke, his tibias went forward without control and the force from the falling weights crushed the remaining ligaments.
While squating parallel or close to, your knees withstand pressure in that dangerous range of motion for longer periods of time. Bellow parallel deep in the squat there’s a phenomenon called packing where your muscles are the ones supporting the tension on the knee. Also, since you squat less weight deep your are farther from the point of peak strength from quads and hams.
What a guy.... he had the courage to recover well enough to do it all again. Once everything breaks twice, this man will be the new David goggins and will finally have the respect of being called by someone else's name. Way to go...
That's what happens when you don't control the weight on the negative force
Wow! God bless this Man! I’m happy that he seems to have recovered quite well.
Too much speed on the decent.
That prs and ego will fuck you up. Watch and learn kids.
Imagine having both those pains in the same moment
look at that legend just smiling in the first photo
Amazing 💪. Those are the only two options
How do you prevent this?
Everyone saying “too much weight” and of course that’s true. It looks like his knees were breaking with that weight no matter what, of course it wouldn’t be that fatal if they saved him.
In general you can only add preventive equipment.
That’s knee pads, belt if needed, (he was using these things but not everyone does, even if they are attempting 2Rep max. Of course minor weights are safer for joints, but if you are challenging your current muscular and tendons max strength it always be dangerous no matter if it’s 20kg in squat, the risk, I understand, is to let the joints do the hard work by technical failure, that could led to loose the stability and where the bad shit begins), and,
now, the thing that failed this man were spotters, I don’t think is their fault, you know you hate when spotters ruin your rep. That’s why you need two bars at both sides with the proper height, it could’ve ended as a single knee bad injury, not double FATAL injury though.
Even if it limits a little your motion range, is not worth it. Any minimal injury yis not worth it. Now you choose.
I was doing my max years ago and your body tells you either you can do it or it's going to be a very very painful moment and I always listen to that inner voice that says, naaa go home and eat some chips lol
Tearing every ligament is just unheard of i tore pcl in a road bike accident & it was painful recovery I can't even imagine his recovery. Human body is miracle of innovation, engineering & biology at the highest level in the known universe. Respect it. because you can't recreate it even 5%. Respect nature. Respect the body. That's the least you can do.
He is a stoic
Your a badass doc.. you Truly found your calling. One day I hope you l can have you fix me too
Don't forget the 3rd one;
chronic back pain because the bottom vertebrae has slipped froward and is resting on the edge of your sacrum, dragging the entire nerve-root with it casing nerve damage and excruciating pain every day. This also triggers a chain-reaction of other pain-in-the-ass symptomes caused by the forward tilted hip and misplaced nerve-root.
that got me in the feelers
look for Filip Grznár, he torn both squats when he was lifting 400KG and how can do 300KG after that injury.
Wow what a line, pain of discipline and pain of regret, i will set it as my motivation
biggest *i felt that* moment in my life
I swear you didn't feel anything. It must have been do agonizing
I would never ever skip a leg day again
Doubt it woulda happened if they squatted full depth :/
I hope you’re joking
@@Josiah_Vidzro Why? Guy is right. With ATG he would never move so much weight from the beginning and his knees would adapt from full range of motion
power lifting is dumb imo they should meassure PRs for 5 or 10 reps so people dont try squatting unreasonable amount of weight, sports are meant to be to improve health
What an amazing ending. Warrior!!!
The third pain is of loss, which comes when you open your heart to other people.
Way to work Big Fellah! Way to work...
Holy shit I did not expect to see this
Never give up! Outstanding! The marks of a true survivor!! Do it right!! Take your time, don't over do it. We only got just one you. Take your time. Pick your weights.
play stupid games, win stupid prices.
Pain of coach
God damn ! I felt that in my knees !!!!
These catastrophic injuries are COMMON with powerlifters. You do not see them with natural bodybuilding. IMO the risk to reward ratio for 1RMs is just not there.
This is a very uncommon injury
Very uncommon, you don't know what you are talking about. With good form and proper warm up and other factors, this stuff almost never happens. I've been lifting for a long while and have don't plenty of 1rms, never injuried myself ever.
God bless take care man wish u all the best
Bro tour every lc ever 💀
