We did our best to hold back the laughter, but we just couldn’t help ourselves.
For a machine that is intended to improve one’s health and wellbeing, the treadmill has also been responsible for some very, very painful accidents over the years.
It’s the fault of the people using them and not the fault of the treadmills themselves, of course, but plenty of people have learned the hard way that carelessness will be punished, often in extremely painful fashion.
We’re not sure when and where the accident in the vine below took place, but what we do know is that it’s one of the most painful-looking treadmill accidents we’ve ever seen, even if we can’t help but snigger at the circumstances in which it came about.
That’s what you get for trying to look all cool in front of an attractive female who’s just passed by; not that there was much sympathy coming from the two lads in front of the camera, mind.
Ouch.
