ITT: Spotting horror stories – what’s the worst that actually happened to you?

Looking for real experiences, not just memes.

Have you ever been injured (or almost injured) because of a bad spotter?
Dropped bar, shit spot technique, spotter panicking and making it worse, etc.

The retard grabbed the bar when I would have made the rep.

People say I spotted wrong but I don't know.
>in gym doing squats in one of two squat racks the gym had as they were remodeling
>gyms empty so I take a bench and put it behind the rack to rest between sets
>other rack gets taken
>a LEGIT butterface regular shows up and making it obvious she's look at the squat racks
>amazing body but man her face is all acne fucked
>finally just ask her if she wants to work in with me to which she agrees immediately
>we're doing our thing when I realize finally after looking up from my phone that i have a perfect sight line to her ass as she squats as the bench is right behind the rack
>so surprised i freeze up till I notice her staring at me through the mirror and snap out of it
>she finishes, i stand up involuntarily and start nervous chuckling to which she joins in
>FF and she asks if I can spot her and she's only doing 3 reps
>say sure and ask if she needs help unracking to which she says no
>stand back as she unracks and does her first rep
>step a little closer on her second
>now on her third I step real close to help as she looked like she was struggling on two
>she squats down and I move closer thinking she failed as she's just squatting
>out of nowhere she starts like pulse squatting on the bottom for 5 , standing over her as she outright twerks
>she starts standing up but starts slowing down
>before I can lean in to help her she slams her ass into me and uses me as a brace to help her stand up
> can feel her whole ass sliding up my body
We both laughed for what felt like forever while she tried not looking me in the eyes. I asked her name, she gave it then ran off, didn't see her for a while after that

The idea of being spotted is so fucking ridiculous to me. Like nigger be self reliant, if you cant work safely with heavy weights, go lighter and know when to stop when you feel it.
>>
>at local gym that costs the same as Planet Shitness but has free weights and squat racks
>some random girl asks me to spot her while she squats lmao 1pl8
>I spot her, never spotted anyone before, but she told me what to do and never really struggled besides the last rep
>fin
Never saw her again, I have a home gym now and nobody fuckin bothers me.

I bought this pair of red bodybuilder shorts and the very first day I wore them to the gym a gay guy asked me to spot his squat.
>>
>>76996482
>roll to hips on bench or dump pl8s to side
>assisted 1st rep top of rom like unracking a bench vs a machine

Nothing. The riskiest thing I've done is heavy bench. When I attempt to 1RM or close to that I've always asked a spot from either a trainer or from any gym guy that I know benches and is strong

Why? Because my gym doesn't have safeties and because you can truly push to failure and attempt to go beyond your existing capacity when you know someone has your back. Past a certain weight the roll of shame can hurt your back if you make a mistake, and dumping the weights to the sides could possibly injure someone

This retarded fucking webm needs way more jumpcuts

Chest day:
>do my regular powerlifting routine
>warmup
>135kg heavy single
>decide to get lankiest twink to spot
>find some dude next to me and go ask him as he's just pacing next to bench
>he's like "nooo I can't spot you I have to do my set"
>call out his bs as I saw him get off the bench 10s before
>it went back and forth for 20s untill he agreed to spot
>lift took less than 5s
>then he goes "I ask the same of you then" in the most reddit way possible
>I realise I have asked for a spot from an autist retard
>he benches 40kg for 10 reps and I just watch him
But wait there is more
>I set weight to 110kg for volume work, second set in and last rep is super grindy
>he comes up to spot without being asked
>signal him that he should fuck off
I hate the neurotic reddittor type of people.
