how terrible, shocking how easy it was for something like this to happen

and he was taking this why?

To stay awake longer and get Fit for his Wrestling match

Not shocking for me

Rick Rude a Fit Wrestler
was in the bathroom of his Hotel
Room , his wife in the bedroom
he took some anabolic steroids
and died from from a Massive Heart Attack.

around 8 to 10 years before his sad death in 1999, aged 40

The reason I loved him
Rude appeared on both WWF Raw is War and WCW Monday Nitro on November 17, 1997.
which proved to public -- one was not Live
one of them he had a tash


If you can not be bothered to get a Trainer
to Professionally advise you
you are playing with Death.


I am shocked if Amazon pays them

Sounds like death by stupidity to me

I remember buying some as a teen as my sis took it back and went mad with the chemists for selling them to kids.
Then pro plus got really popular in the 90s too.

Another ****wit out of the gene pool.

Wow... that's savage, what a disgusting thing to say.
There are those on this forum who admit to taking substances that are at best unidentified and at worst illegal, and that's met with almost fanatical hero worship.
I am constantly surprised on this forum.

:clap1:

I said virtually the same thing as LT and you're on my case. What are you, my conscience? I don't need a ticking off from you thanks.

we all take substances and caffeine probably the most common

And surely everyone with half a brain knows it's dangerous in large quantities.

I was addressing both of you, if I meant you directly I'd quote you.

death by stupidity

So... How does that then make him any more stupid than a kid who takes pool cleaner?
Caffeine is in many things and is maybe why he felt it was 'safe'.

the Hard Rhino label warned the powder “can be dangerous if abused” and that “failure to follow safety guidelines can result in serious injury or death.

It says that on paracetomol, what's your point?

He made an error like many teens do, why that preempts such heartless comments I don't know.

what is your point?

I agree,and I think the key word here is; 'overdose'; "an excessive and dangerous dose of a drug."

It's no different to playing 'Russian Roulette' with a half loaded gun -- Sooner than later your luck runs out.

It was stupid of course but most of us were a little stupid when we were 18, I know I thought I was invincible back then. Poor kid and his family :(

I couldn't make it any clearer.

Let's just hope nobody close to you is ever as 'stupid'.

as neem says 18 year old die by stupidity all the time, on roads mainly but in rivers, by drugs, drink etc

its a fact

I don't care what Niamh says... do you feel validated because a moderator backed your skewed view?
(No offence Niamh)

Anyone can die my misadventure in rivers or by substances 18 or not.

I wasn't backing anyone, that's just my opinion :laugh: I still feel sorry for the poor kid and his family. Maybe that stuff shouldn't be so readily availible online like that. Even if it had to be sold at chemist, they could atleast speak to people who buy it and tell them the correct amounts to take and properly warn them about the risks of overdosing
