We were talking about that the other day at work.
That really sucks. Don't watch it if you're squeamish.

Funny how there are Chinese people employed to block the view in such events.

Yeah, I caught a tiny bit of it on a morning news show.

Yuck, reminds me of Shawn Livingston injury.

Good luck to for recovery.

I do worry about those weight lifters heaving up 400+ pounds. How do your bones not just snap or your spine just collapse?

yeah, pretty bad injury, it seems he wanted to pull it back and didn't have the strength to do it.

He's in a hospital, but according to my sources he'll be fine.
