This is the painful moment when a gym-goer drops a 200lb (91kg) barbell on his chest during a workout after it slips from his hands.

The incident occurred in Huludao, Liaoning province, in north-eastern China, on February 21.

Footage shows the fitness enthusiast performing bench presses with the barbell when it unexpectedly slips and falls onto his abdomen.

Despite the visible pain, he manages to lift the weights off himself and stands up as the video ends.

The exerciser, identified only as Mr Wang, said that he lost his grip during the second set but was not seriously injured in the incident.

He added that he will ensure someone is there to spot him for safety next time he works out.
