Yes. Usually the pass-out is after the rep is done though. It's usually orthostatic hypotension from valsalva (holding your breath hard under load) causing vessels to contract), then releasing and breathing again causes a sudden drop in blood pressure. I get it all the time after DLs and squats, but I'm smart enough to know when to sit or lean on something when my vision starts to go black.
And he didn't just drop it because he's strapped on.
Unfortunately he probably did major damage to his knees.
