I lift alone pretty often, but I would never bench press or squat without a spotter right behind me. It's common sense. Apparently this kid had a spotter too. Dude just must not have been paying attention. My guess is the kid who was lifting can probably throw up 275 several times, and the spotter was just kind of standing there, not really expecting him to struggle and therefore probably didn't have his hands right under the bar like he would if he was trying to max out.
