I've seen this happen once while spotting someone on a preacher curl... the sound is just like ripping a sheet of cloth apart.

I'm going to save this pic and post it every time someone does hook grip on deadlifts while doing a workout. The bicep isn't meant to handle that much load, and you're only asking for injury.

It puts you at much, much higher risk. Take a look, I just searched "bicep tear deadlift" on youtube, and there are the hits.



In my opinion, it's not worth it. Yes, you can use more weight on the alternate/hook grip, but the risk of tearing a bicep makes it totally not worth it, at all.
