Died October 4th, 1992:
some claimed he died of heart failurei wish he would have died on stageimgine that winning the show holding the trophy and then go down in a blaze of glorythat would be fuckn awesome
Momo won the show that night he died. Dutch Pro I think.
how did Mohammed Benaziza die?why did he die?why did he refuse to go to the hospital even though he was ill
ground up apples in the blender
That with massive amounts of clen and no water plus diuretics.
I thought it was Steve Brisebois who was sharing a room with him when he died.I read it was the clen as well, pulled all the water he started taking in onto his lungs drowning him.
He was there a I do think he was sharing a room. I heard he went to get Porter. Talked to Steve about it one time. He said Momo was cramping so bad he was locked in position sitting in a chair. They kept trying to massage him. Must have been a horrible way to die.
Momo was taking Potassium sparing diuretic (ALDACTONE/Spirinolactone) for several days while carbing up with foods containing high amounts of potassium...I am not sure IF he used INSULIN at the time...Some people claim he did - I simply don't know and would not want to assume...There is NO difference anyway...insulin or not he was hyperkalemic (condition where TOO MUCH potassium was circulating in his blood stream).Mistake of the doctor was catastrophic - and I would like to warn some of the competitors here on board of possible outcome IF they or someone they know - take potassium sparing diuretics in their contest preparation.While carbing up for the show - usual choices of carbs for bodybuilders are also HIGH in potassium - which means - in couple of days of eating high amounts of carbohydrate containing foods which are also (accidently) filled with high levels of potassium... while taking pharmaceutical agent (type of diuretics from potassium sparing group of diuretics...most commonly used in bodybuilding circles is ALDACTONE - brand name of Spirinolactone ) which causes accumulation of potassium in blood circulation of competitors choosing common method of "peaking" for bodybuilding events...To add "insult to injury" at the same time (last two - three days leading up to the show) bodybuilders restrict their fluid intake (individual differences go from slightly reducing their usual amounts of fluids - to drastic reductions) and some actually - COMPLETELY ELIMINATE IT...Some eliminate for just several hours...but some (even certain mr. olympia winner ) eliminate every type of fluids for 1-2 even 3 days!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!Some competitors "compromise" and take watery types of fruits instead...and that was the case with Momo.I actually happen to know A LOT OF his "secrets" as we discussed numerous things and exchanged our experiences...Momo was taking pounds of apples...He would peel them and than make apple sauce from it.That was his absolute favorite choice of carbs for "loading phase"...and he would not drink anything LAST TWO DAYS...while taking Aldactone + Aldactazide...and occasionally additional diuretics IF he needs it...Which was the case at that 1992 Euro Tour.Anyway, he was KILLED by LETHAL INJECTION from ignorant doctor ( actually WHO KNOWS IF moron who came to Momo's room was licensed...? ) Hmmmm, Thierry Pastel was the only guy who was present when doctor Moron came to Momos room and brilliantly - without checking the levels of potassium in Momos blood - injected, one of the very best bodybuilders and absolutely wonderful human being Mohammed Momo Benaziza - with Potassium injection...assuming that Momo must be HYPOKALEMIC instead...Assumption of medical practitioners when they see dehydrated person is - that due to diuresis and loss of large amounts of water - particular person must be in hypokalemic state (when insufficient amount of potassium is floating around in the blood stream - due to "mineral flush" i.e. loss of minerals caused by loss of large amounts of water or dehydration...)...It is CRITICAL to check levels of potassium of dehydrated patient before anyone injects that patient with usual potassium or injection that contains mixture of electrolytes/minerals particularly also high in potassium...)To hydrate patient saline solution would be fine...but NO potassium in any shape or form should be administered to dehydrated patient who used potassium sparing diuretics in contest preparation...!Remember that - as it might save some lives...PS - I wrote the article about it...it is "somewhere" on my board....HYPERKALEMIA article in European Flex section...I can find it right now - as I must run...I hope this helps...
I remember reading Steves account of it in a magazine back in the day, Musclemag I think, I think Steve gave up competing after that incident.
Why does a thread with a wall of text form Milos only have 3 pages??Back in the day getbig was spoiled!
So he was KILLED by an ignorant doctor? IMO, many people trust doctors simply bc they have a title....truth is, there aren't too many great doctors out there. Many of them are excellent at taking tests but not so good at making good decisions.Tragic.
to my knowledge, Milos was never too popular on Getbig. Also, in his reply he seems to have a simple reply to a very complicated issue. How could Milos possibly know exactly what killed Momo? (RIP)
