Praising a Man in front of him is like breaking his back...!

Abu Musa reported that the Prophet

heard a man praise another man and he was using exaggeration in his praise of him.
The Prophet

said, "You have destroyed *or broken * the man's back."
[Adab Al Mufrad Bukhari: 334]

Ibrahim at-Taymi reported that his father said, "We were sitting with 'Umar and one man praised another man to his face."
He said, "You have wounded the man. May Allah wound you."
[Adab Al Mufrad Bukhari: 335]

Zayd ibn Aslam reported that his father heard 'Umar state, "Praise is slaughter." The transmitter added, "He meant when it is accepted."
[Adab Al Mufrad Bukhari: 336]
