Jyms posted a vid in the Youtube thread that got me thinking of all the stuff I have seen in the gym and inspired me to start this thread. Please post all weird/funny/crazy stories from your experiences at the gym. I will start it off with a few.

I am at my college gym early on a Saturday, clearly not prime town for most students. The place is a ghost town, in fact I am the only person in the weight room until this guy walks in with his girlfriend. I notice him packing on a great deal of weight onto a bar for a bench press. Naturally he asks me for a spot since I am the only other guy in there and he is about to try and bench close to 300lbs. Did I mention he is a 5'4 and 140lbs?? Obv trying to impress the girlfriend. I come over for the spot and pray that this guy is at least 1/2 as strong as he thinks he is. The 1 rep max out is essentially a 2 man effort with him pushing with all his might and me pulling we barely manage to get the bar back up. He gets up from the bench without saying a word, fist pumps, grabs his girl and leaves.

A guy is benching 55lb dumbbells and gets worn out at the peak of his final rep and drops one of them on his chest. Clearly in pain and wind knocked out of him as everyone stares in horror he gasps "I'm okay, I'm okay."
