its not like any of them personally manufactured the bar while watching tv or smth, doing it half heartedly :D so what would they apologize for ? we are sry we didnt extensively test all equipment we just assembled here? and the black guy came over + they had a medic attend. cant ask for more IMO while its unfortunate it happend to begin with, its not really anyones fault besides the manufacturers because its a bit laughable that a carbon rod breaks that easily.

Not everyone is a douchebag and spits on the fat guy trying to get in shape.

It's always a great idea to start exercising! Nobody worth talking to looks down to a "fat guy trying to get get in shape", because at least you're trying. Climbing is also great way to exercise without it becoming really boring. Like gym is, as a rule, mind numbingly boring and uninspiring. However, unless you lose enough weight, you might plateau fairly early. That said, most people always plateau at some point in their climbing career so it's not a huge issue unless you make it one.

It is not the problem of it being CFRP, it's just that a sane course designer would get an engineer to calculate the load and stress, sufficient dimensions, choose the proper filament directions and check failure modes, then run a qualification process; or choose a constructive element qualified for the applied forces. And intervals to check for damage/fatigue. This is just irresponsible af, with even lightweight-Magnus being able to break it using a rather wide grip. Probably got some Walmart broom stick there.

[@JamesBrown-wy7xs]

@@whohasallmyusernames Yeah, and he's not to subtle about shoving it in Juji's face either, and right in front of all of his own friends, no less (you and I both know that exchange was awkward for Juji and everyone who associates with him). He's a douche. A douche who's lucky that Juji isn't a roid rager with lacking social etiquette, who wouldn't take that kind of banter with a friendly smile, like roughly half the dudes who have Juji's physique. I'm not implying that half of men with Juji's physique would have escalated it to a fight in the same situation, but surely many of them would have barked back a bit and raised the tension a notch or two higher. I'm also not saying that it's wrong (or right for that matter). It's kind of what these "alpha types" do - the usually not-so-subtle dick measuring competitions. They go on swinging their dicks around until someone puts them in their place. It's a bit obnoxious, but I guess that's the point of their act.

with the bar, i think they thought that if they made it out of carbon fiber it would be stronger but carbon fibre is strongest for tensile loads where it is stronger than steel. For an application like that its a Shearing/Bending load which is where carbon fiber is weakest. Its no surprise its broke, carbon fiber has only about 4% the strength when in shear conditions as it does when under tensile loading.

As a Pediatric ER physician my heart stopped when the bar snapped, I agree with other commenters that this could have been way worse!

[@z3dar]

@@lesbiehonest8914 If they don't have a specific clause in that waiver for injuries from broken or mismanaged equipment, they could likely be sued, at least for a larger injury like losing an eye. However, since it's an American show the waiver probably covers absolutely everything and anything. Still though, any deal or waiver can be challenged in court of law, in this case for example for gross mismanagement or misrepresentation of the courses safety. I'm not saying Magnus should do be looking to sue ofc, just that law is never that simple.

[@TheRipge]

Legit screamed "YEAH!" when you managed to slide the ball obstacle in your guest run. Awesome! :)

I love how the host of the show just randomly pops in after Magnus gets injured and tries to change the subject really quick by addressing to Juji about how big he is and how much he can bench, but totally leaves the fact that Magnus just got hurt by one of his equipment failing...

@@FlapjackRevenge force is mass * acceleration. Yes the acceleration from gravity is the same but mass in Jujis case is much larger hence a greater force. When a leaf lands on a twig it doesn't break but if you stand on the twig it'll break. Same gravity, different mass.
