The incident was also recorded in a video and has since been circulating on social media.

In the video, Vicky was attempting to do a squat press with the barbell on his shoulders. However, he was unable to stand upright after going into a squat and with the weight bearing on him, he fell back into a sitting position as the heavy barbell dropped on the back of his neck.
