In the first video, ‘Bones’ gets his grip on the rod before performing a deadlift for a few seconds. He then lets the barbell drop onto the floor. 

In the second video, there are only 3 weights on either side of the rod instead of the four in the first deadlift. The weight seems even more manageable to ‘Bones’ who proceeds to do an entire set of 10 reps. After this the camera zooms into his t-shirt, focusing purely on the word “Man official.”
