That’s exactly how people injure themselves on leg press machines like that.
When I was in the Army I knew a 120# female that leg pressed 600# and didn’t know it at the time but separated a couple of ribs from her spine doing it. That injury took her out for a while.
Edit: to clarify, she was using a leg press more like this than the one in #4.
