In your own home all alone, you don't lift great weights BECAUSE you're all alone.

Both arms don’t give out at the same time either. Even under surprising pain or injury (Like a bone break) one arm will come down slower than the other. The barbells, once off keel, will tumble to the floor, and the bench behind your head will deflect some of the weight. It’s going to hurt, and it’s going to suck but I don’t buy this for a second.
I used to think that these crime scenes were designed, setup and ultimately crafted to hide the true cause of death - but I think that in certain cases police show up to see a bullet wound in someone and declare it a heart attack.
The whole thing, like Scalia, can be wrecked without so much as a fingerprint dusted. All in paperwork.
I lifted at home alone, and even my cheesy consumer-grade bench has ‘oh, s**t’ lugs to drop the bar on to keep it off of you. Yes, I’ve had to use them. Usually after a moderate-heavy weight with a a lot of reps.
Once is happenstance. Twice is coincidence. Three times is enemy action. Dozens of times, is the Clintons.
