This is wrong. Deadlifts can be as safe as any other exercise if done properly. Find a coach, practice, maintain form and take your time.

I don’t think this goes directly against the parent comment. They aren’t inherently dangerous, but they’re really easy to do wrong and cause a lot of damage.

The parent comment said "I would never recommend deadlifts."

Based on what I've seen in the gym there should absolutely be a disclaimer for deadlifts.
