    Ok, not as bad as I thought. I was afraid it was gonna land on the neck trying to rerack the weight. Not as bad as one hand slipping which causes one side to drop, dropping the weights which sends the bar flying the other direction. Still not saying I want to go out and bounce a loaded barbell off my chest though . . .
