A whole lot would have to be wrong for someone to drop the bar on their neck or head. Most obviously, at least on a bench with built on forks would be body position.
Not that it can't happen though. We are talking about people after all. Benching on a free standing bench with no forks in a power rack totally makes it possible.
I hear you, seems more common with like floor pressing or incline benching, maybe even decline if they are using the J range of motion..
are people cocking their wrists back when using a suicide grip? it seems like that's what's happening, and the thus the weight is more directly on the "wrist stump" that way.

browndisaster, I don't like your screen name.
Carry on.
I don't like it either, but it's too late to change
What IS a brown disaster?
1. It's a head-on collision between 2 fully-loaded UPS trucks.
2. It's a bad case of diarrhea after a night of food and drink in Tijuana.
3. It's what white supremacists called it after Obama got elected for a 2nd term.
hahahaha you are very close
1. I was a dick in a box UPS driver for Halloween freshman year of college, it was a success
2. (this is the real reason) I used to squat and deadlift in college on the weekends after a night of drinking. Whenever I was really hungover, which was about half the time, I'd poop my pants a bit. I never noticed it when it happened, but luckily it usually went undetected as people weren't near the power rack often.
3. I still don't get how white supremacists enjoy food. Do they just have mac and cheese daily?

it looks like the bar just slips through their hands. maybe my recommending gloves isnt such a bad idea now? no? i'm still a fag? okay sorry.
i understand you guys want strong rhino skin on your hands, as do i. i make sure to tear my hands up regularly. since you might need to lift something out of the gym and you want durable hands. but i carry racing gloves with me wherever i go because you never know what you'll need to handle. i needed to carry a tv one time and my hands sweat and it had sharp edges on its base, im glad i had gloves. i love gloves. i also owned a pair of pants that let you slip in knee pads. i loved that

In bodybuilding, no judges are checking for callouses on your hands, they're not inquiring whether you squat or not, and they certainly don't give a damn if you use the maxi pad or not.
Do whatever works for you and enables your progress.
