This picture is an optical elusion. If you stare at it long enough, you can see a necklace.

That's right!! (ref. your #4!) Tell 'em to take 2 aspirins & call me in a week! According to Monty Python's Holy Grail, this doesn't even QUALIFY as "only a flesh wound!!"

Ouch.

Sadly we'll be seeing this kind of thing more and more.

Both Power lifting and Olympic lifting have gotten to insane levels. We're reaching the point where the structure won't support the weight even though the horsepower is there to haul it up.

I saw someones femur do a spiral fracture under a 900 pounnd squat once. Not pretty.

But now that bench press records have topped 900 pounds and squats are pushing 1200 it won't surprise me if this kind of thing becomes much more regular.
