    I'm 240+, and have used my bar when I was much heavier. The bar won't fall. I did permenantly damage my door frames tho, even with foam handles and extra cardboard wedged in there.

    You'll be fine.

    And what? Is your door frame built over a bottomless chasm? Or maybe your carpet is on fire? Perhaps an alligator pit? You're only 2-3 feet of the ground. Falling won't kill you. I promise.

    LOL! Thanks. I will get over my odd fear of the bar and try it.
