— Tear_Hunter (@tear_hunter) June 3, 2023Never locked it out plus awful form. His strength and conditioning coach should be fired for allowing him to go heavy, for him, on such a technical lift with such poor form.

— RamadanSteve (@SteveRamadan_) June 2, 2023Dude is gonna hurt himself. His form is atrocious. Where are his coaches and why aren’t they stopping him?
— Dustin Peterson (@DustinTPeterson) June 2, 2023Most of the users made fun of him being too light as a result easily lifting thrice of his weight. On top of it, many trolled him for his bad form during the deadlift which is one of the most dangerous lifts which can injure athletes. Many have criticized his coaches for allowing him to do the lift with such a form that might break his back.
