Craig Bongelli, 22 year old Canadian athlete from Kitchener in Ontario was crushed by a 360 pound boulder while competing in the Bavarian Strongman Challenge held during the Oktoberfest in 2012. Craig was on the fourth and final boulder in the atlas stones event when the strain of lifting the boulder made him to black out for a few seconds. He fell to the ground with boulder crashing on top of his chest from head high.Don't know what happen to him after the accident.
Heres the video

That would be an insane accident, if you are lifting anything, you hope it doesn't fall on you.

I hope he's alright.

They should have haulted the competition as soon as they seen his stature, on his toes
with a large arch in his back there was only one way this was going.

I'm just so relieved it didn't roll onto his face.

His condition is in the description.
Qoute, "Incredibly, while this had the potential to kill the man, Craig Bongelli not only survived the crush,
he got by with only a few bruises and scratches."
