…is really the only thing to say when you watch this video of Matthias Steiner dropping 432 pounds on his neck. He didn’t appear to be seriously injured, although he did have to withdraw from competition. You know, because he had just dropped 432 pounds on his neck. [Busted Coverage]

2. Crying kid gets to Skype with Jeremy Lin.

A little tyke whose parents posted a video of him having a breakdown when Jeremy Lin left the Knicks got to Skype with the Rockets point guard. Hopefully, this doesn’t encourage more of these types of videos, but you know what? Good for you, kid. You got to Skype with Lin. [Iamagm]
