That's some intense stuff, you've definitely got a bit of a masochistic streak there Gazza!

Started the bend in your teeth!!?? Geez why don't you have somebody flog you with chains while you're bending? Man Gaz I don't see how that doesn't crack your teeth with a bar that short. You better be really sure of what you're bending in your mouth like that because IF something snapped....EEWWW!

Crazy stuff my man! Very very impressive the strength it took but man that had to hurt.

I might try stainless at some point but I decided long ago that I'm too afraid of the dentist to do much in my teeth. I really didn't even like the feel of the 4 foot hot rolled in my teeth. I bet tough steaks are no problem for you .

I'm on the edge of my seat to see what you'll try next. I'm suprised you're not some daredevil escape artist too or something like that. You definately don't walk on the beaten path I'll definately give you that.

Incredible bend.

Guess Gazza's dentist has a very nice assistant for him doing this

Where will it end? chewing a 1/2" x 7" bar in half????

I saw that you were rubbing your jaw and neck during the bend. How sore are they now after the fact. Though the teeth part looks painful, I couldn't help but think how awsome of a neck workout that must be. I mean that is what wrestlers should be doing, it must be painful just to turn your head and look around at this point.

In the other thread you said

but it looks exciting and freaks people out especially once they see blood

The video was in black and white, so please tell me the wet spot on the padding in your mouth was saliva.

The wet spot was indeed blood i actually cracked a tooth in half and swallowed it had the rest of it removed a few days later as the nerve was open so i kept pocking it with a small fork just to see how much pain i could take and now i know what joseph Mengolis patients felt like

I probably weekened the tooth as i did the same bend but with a 19inch piece for a few people at work.

It does work the jaw and kneck very hard i trained for this by doing jawbreakers they are rolling back and forth on your jaw in a pressup position with your hands behind your back and also doing isos with a spring pushing it up against the jaw with the hands whilst watching TV.

These bends were done awhile back and the jaw and neck were saw for a few days afterwards i did do some were i push up with the bar insted of pulling down but had to use slightly longer pieces as it hits the jaw and neck differently.

I like to try and be abit different thats partly why i use mostly stainless as well i dont really like copying people but figure that most of the oldtimers probably had it covered anyway.

Then how about bending a bar behind your back? That would be really something

I didhave abit of success with this method i was able to kink a shiny equivalent but it was only a 12degree kink so nothing really i need to be able to tense the whole body for alot longer to be able to generate the power through the wrists properly just need to keep hitting the isosin handcuffs behind the back this takes up huge ammounts of energy but one day i hope to be able to bend a shiny bastard or equivalent in handcuffs behind the back.

I think doing some of the isos in the cuffs behind the back may have contributed to my injury but i will just have to get stronger.

funny story one day i was in the house home early from work so i thought i wought do some isos in the handcuffs whilst the wife and kids were out anyway i took all my work clothes off as sometimes i get covered in crap off of the back of the refuse wagon so i strips down to my boxies and thought with the wether being hot and no clothes to restrict me it would be a good time to try the isos in the cuffs so i put them on behind my back and have at it about 20mins later covered in sweat i get the keys and put them in the lock part as best i can only when i flex my wrist to try and turn the keys my wrists and forearms etc cramp up cause i overdid it on the isos i try a good few times but cause of the tiredness and lactic acid etc its making it worse so now im stuck in the house with my arms cuffed behind my back and in my boxies I try phoneing the missus useing my nose to dial the numbers thats no good then i realise the missus had agreed to take the kids shopping straight after school shit i will be stuck like this for atleast another hour and now my shoulders and back are starting to cramp because of the position i am in i try again a few times more to no avail ending up more sweaty and full of cramps again so i think stuff it i will have to go to the neighbours so i open the front door that was a battle itself and go and ring nextdoors bell Les whos 56 answers and i am standing there in boxies covered in sweat red faced with my hands cuffed behind my back i tell him to quickly undo them which he does i explain whats been going on and go back to mine to find the front door has locked behind me and i have no keys on me so i think i will climb over the front fense and wait in the shed for the missus or kids to arrive halfway over the fense and a taxi pulls up out get the missus and kids and them and the taxi driver all look at me funny as im halfway over the fense in just boxies with a pair of handcuffs in my hand i can only imagine what it must of looked like and what my neighbour and the taxi driver told there mates

The missus now thinks im even more nuts than when she first met me

Nice story Gazza...

I was playing with cuffs once before, and off course put them on in such a way I couldn't get them off anymore...

Eventually with the key between my teeth I managed to get myself out. But I almost had to wait for several hours cuffed before my girl got home... That really s*cks!

I think kinking a shiny behind the back already is a great accomplishment. I will give it a try once, but I don't believe I will be able to kink a 6mm bar, let alone a red or similar

[dimmers]

Only just got round to watching these bends Gazza....

great to see you bending again, they looked like brutal bends?

[neilkaz]

Awesome stuff..from the man who is showing that he currently dominates all types of bending !

What's really amazing about that story is that your neighbor answered the door! A sweaty dude wearing boxers and handcuffs rings my doorbell and I'm not really sure how I'd react.

You are not a conventional sort of fellow are you? I guess that would be a good iso excercise.

You're the man!
