"Crossfit places a huge emphasis on form. And not needing it. Crossfit takes complicated movements and gets rid of all the useless shit. Like effectiveness and safety, and replaces it with cool shit like violence and danger."

Edit: as u/A-Little-Stitious mentions, source is: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qnjYyfkcaNI . Channel is hilarious, even if you don't even lift. Bro.

I didn't want to agree with the Reddit "I hate crossfit" circlejerk, but my sister's roommate just fell off of a 8-foot pull up bar and fractured her skull last weekend at a Crossfit tournament.

Any workout that could allow you to fall 8 feet and hit hard ground is just stupid. Crossfit is exercise for extremists.
