I was challenged once by some guy in the gym who said I couldn't squat 315 for 3 sets of 20. 1st set no problem, 2nd set a little more difficult. 3rd set pushing up #16 and something in my head popped. I continued and completed to 20 before collapsing on the floor for 20 minutes. Turned out I ruptured a vessel in my head and wasn't able to lift again for 2 weeks. I had major headaches for most of those 2 weeks. Anything I even tried to slightly lift put pressure on my head and was brutal. Not sure I actually learned my lesson but it was a experience I will never forget.
