Exactly Brett. It can happen in an instant.
I've seen that happen more than a few times in my life. The worst was when a guy training next to me was doing an Incline Bench Press and his grip slipped and 185lb barbell came down on the guys nose.
I always get nervous when I see some of you guys ignore instruction and use the thumbless grip on thrusters, presses, jerks, etc.
Play it safe - wrap your thumb around the bar unless you're doing a back squat.

WOD: 10 plus 10 rx'd
I actually kicked up to the wall (assisted) and held a handstand (unassisted) for 3-5seconds. Sometimes it's the little things.
As I stit here at my daughters basketball practice on hard bleachers for and hour and a half I am wondering how I am going to walk to the car. Call that a great 2 days at Next Gen!!!
