in the drug-tested wabdl organization.

Good luck and make sure you have a bowel movement before the competition. It would be embarrassing if you farted while lifting.

i've seen worse things happen to people lifting in front of an audience of 100's.

Like your grandma with Alzheimers remembering she used to be a stripping whore all the sudden when she sees the stage kinda embarrassing, or having your testicle explode from the weight and kill two people in the audience embarrassing?

No, light weightlifters sh!tting their pants while lifting I'm guessing.
