Why is it that a lot of people are scared and intimidated of powerlifting?

Magazines and mainstream media show powerlifters surrounded by a crowd of spotters, and girdled in wraps, bench shirts, and super suits, all of which sends the not-so subliminal message that heavy weights are DANGEROUS. After all, if a ranked powerlifter or a world champion can’t do a squat without six spotters, a double ply super suit, squat briefs, an erector shirt, and wrist and knee wraps, the average guy is hardly going to approach his next set of heavy squats with anything less than fear and trembling.
