get low under it and drive up with your legs. try and get as much leg drive as possible as the more you try to press it with your arms the more unstable itll be.

if your going to drop it move out the way or risk getting your teeth smashed in! Grin

i saw a guy doing this at a place i train, real awkward. like wilsan said he was using a lot of leg drive, before every rep he wasnt standing right underneath but drove forward and up at the same time if that makes sense, hard to explain. def came down n nearly mashed his face couple times as well.

i remember the double safe press they did at worlds one time, didnt look good at all.

Don't do it Grin

My one attempt at this resulted in a painful whack to the face and a busted lip.

Having a yoke press accident in your training history is a badge of honour! Bit like an ASBO Grin
