It's a common practice to show off when you're at the gym. Because of this it's pretty normal to see patrons flexing their muscles and showing off with a variety of things while working out.
What isn't so common, is to see someone pass out when doing something as simple as flexing.
But that is exactly what happened to one man and TikTok is shook.
Newas Sharif, known on TikTok as @sharif.2is, was flexing his arm muscles in the mirror at the gym in the United Arab Emirates, when he passed out, stumbled into the mirror and broke his nose.
Sharif shared the video of the incident on TikTok. It has been viewed more than five million times and has over nine thousand comments.
In the comment section of the video, Sharif explained the friend he had filming him didn't react because he thought Sharif was joking.
You can see the video here:
In an interview, Sharif explained why he passed out.
“I basically passed out because I didn’t rest after my set, so my heart rate was high. I was posing right after my set, as I was pumped and when I held my breath, I passed out.”
He also explained why no one rushed to help.
“My friend found it funny for a second because he thought I was acting and making some funny content."
“People in the gym know I make funny content a lot, so no one came to help until they saw blood from my nose and I was on the floor.”
The comments on the video are pretty hilarious.
A lot of people mentioned the print Sharif left on the mirror as he went down.

While the video is shocking and the comments are hilarious, we hope Sharif is feeling better.
Hopefully he remembers to take a break and rest the next time he wants to flex for the camera.
