So, we have a workout routine where we do pull ups. This man decides to full send some chin ups while I'm laying in bed doing schoolwork. All I can see/hear is a yelp as he and the bar dip behind my screen. Yes, the floor is brick.
It's very secure as long as you don't try to throw yourself at the damn ceiling and use it like a normal human being (I can understand your apprehension though, seeing as you are a massive radioactive iguana that cannot fit in doors.).
