Bones? Joints? Internal organs suddenly becoming external?

Yeah that was a serious ouch moment there. Weightlifting is actually remarkably safe. Injuries like this one are very rare.

That was a bad lift going up. Normally you want to let go of the bar when you feel it drifting like that. He fought it and wham, there went the elbow. Ouch, ouch, ouch!
