Anyone? Who was his supplier? Did he pay to shut him up with his wealth?

1. You mean Growth Hormone?
Sure, why not? Christ, all the competitive bodybuilders use it or have used it at one time or another. In addition to stacking juice(lots and lots of 'roids).

How can you tell? Well, it grows bone, too. Look at both male and female bodybuilders. If they have pronounced lower jaw, perhaps one that is not apparent in their earlier photos, then they have likely been using not Human Growth Hormone, but Simian Growth Hormone.

That's right: From monkeys.

5. hGH wasn't big in the 70s.
At the time, only one company manufactureded hGH -- KabiGen of Sweden. It was derived from cadavers, and unfortunately, it led to Jakob-Creutzfeldt Disease, which is a transmissible encephalopathy similar to "mad-cow disease."

hGH wasn't widely used by body builders until it was produced recombinantly by Genotech and Lilly in the early 90s and it became more readily available., and much safer to use than the cadaver-derived hGH

Edited on Fri Oct-03-03 10:37 PM by BiggJawn
Gee, after all, he WAS a "world class" bodybuilder, wasn't he?

I've sen the picture, HUGE upper torso, average-size dick, tiny ball-bag...

As for his supplier, c'mon, they used to put dishes of those things out like candy in the gym...
