A gym goer was smacked in the face by a weight machine after stopping to look at her phone.

The woman was reportedly taken to hospital with concussion after being walloped in the face by the workout machine.

The CCTV clip shows her using a leg press with two 20kg weights added.

She tries to apply the safety bar after finishing her set and sits up to look at her phone.

The foot plate then slams her in the face.

The victim drops her phone to the floor and covers her face with her hands.

A gym goer rushes over to check on her as the video comes to an end.

The accident took place at a gym in the city of Gwacheon located south of Seoul in South Korea.

According to reports, the unnamed woman, said to be in her 40s, was taken to hospital and diagnosed with concussion.

However, the gym’s management claimed that the accident was “the member’s fault” for not applying the safety bar correctly.

They also refused to give her a refund for her membership fee when she asked for it, as reported by What’s The Jam.

The victim said: “The gym is maintaining their position that they are not at fault.

“When I asked for a refund, they said I signed a contract at a special rate and that I would have to pay a penalty.”

Local attorney Park Ji-hoon said the “gym should take responsibility” because they didn’t display a warning sign that “the support bar could fall so take care”.

He added: “Responsibility lies with the facility’s manager, it is unfair to hold the user responsible.”

It is unclear if the woman plans to take legal action against the gym.
