VIDEO: Over-confident weightlifter tries to squat 855lbs…and it goes horribly wrong

When pushing your limits, it's important to know where the line lies.

It may be true that you'll never know whether or not you can do something until you try, you can still make an educated guess sometimes. Perhaps this weightlifter should have thought more about what he could physically lift as he tried to squat the hefty amount of 855lbs. Then again, based on the fact he didn't even lock the weights into the bar, we don't think he really thought any of this through. You can see the results below, with the attempt finally taking place just after the two-minute mark. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_Lz1qJyWCVY
