I just saw it. Seems to me all of the "cases" had some sort of psycological issues, with self image right at the very top. Perhaps that's why most take them, i don't know. It was a little depressing actually.

Yeah, I watched as well. The last guy was the one who pissed me off the most though, because he took them specifically to avoid the hard work in the gym. The 2nd guy was a wack job. And the first guy seemed like he just wanted more than what his genes would allow. He was the only one who didn't annoy me, probably because he had said about how many hard hours he had put in at the gym and he reached his natural potential.

I agree, pretty sad. I guess I never thought about thin people using to get medium builds. Definitely deep psych issues for the guy using steroids just to go to the clubs for strip contests. They all experienced some side effects, yet repeatedly said they didn't care how much it harmed them.

It definitely was not a instructional video for nurses on how to give injections. And whats with the guy doing oral steroids?
