Shaun "Dinosaur" Davis Another Kidney Fallen Soldier
« on: February 20, 2014, 08:07:11 AM »
I just came across this albeit old, no sh*t  :o I was shocked he was always on mags here in the UK.

http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/england/derbyshire/7827548.stm
 
Shaun "Dinosaur" Davis, 42, from Long Eaton, won the titles of Mr Universe, Mr Europe and Mr Britain before kidney failure ended his bodybuilding career.

He recently underwent a kidney transplant at Nottingham City Hospital after being on the waiting list for about three years.
 
He is now urging more people to sign up to the transplant donor register.

'Broken to tears'

"It really hammers it home, since the transplant, that more and more people are desperate for kidneys and there are people out there who are dying waiting for kidneys," Mr Davis said.
 
Transplant co-ordinator at Nottingham City Hospital Richard Bowen said: "There are over 8,000 people in the UK who would benefit from an organ transplant.
 
"At this very moment, 7,000 of those are waiting for a kidney transplant."

Mr Davis is waiting to see if his body will accept the new kidney following the operation about a week ago, but for the moment he is delighted not to have to undergo regular dialysis.
 
His eight-year-old daughter Harley even wrote a letter thanking Father Christmas.
 
Mr Davis said: "That broke me to tears because she's been praying for a kidney for her daddy and she asked for one last Christmas and it didn't come."

Seriously, they haven't made synthetic kidneys yet?  Where the fuck are the clone farms for shit like this, we are in the 21st century for fucks sake.

How the fuck has Brad Holibaugh (sp?) or Klaus not died yet? Are they indestructible, like Ruhl?

All the money that could have gone into such research went to bailouts for the chipmunk hoarding elite. It's converted to numbers and stored inside a computer at some bank instead of coming to use. Billions of man hours tied up much to the delight of the 1%.

He had surgery to remove a growth in part of his triceps, a section as big as an orange as I recall.

A "growth" or a chunk of necrotic flesh from the Synthol?

"broken to tears"
ya ok
gets told for 15 years by his GPs and friends to stop using
replies that he's fine and only idiots get sick
now he's crying
reminds me of mike mazz telling george farah at the 2004 AC that he was healthy as hell and competing in the toronto pro
10 months later, he's on life support with his chest open
these guys don't learn until life whacks them with a tire iron over the head

I cannot comment on Klaus....he seems to have gone AWOL.   But Hollibaugh, Flex Wheeler, Derek Anthony(RIP), Matt Duvall (RIP) and now this guy (Shaun Davis who guest posed at the IFBB South African Nationals that I won in 1994)......all abused synthol ....and had terrible kidney consequences.

Who's next? (Many more I assure you)

Now we know where Nasser got his synthol tips from:

Describe to us your best body parts?
 
My best body parts were shoulders and back, but especially my triceps and biceps which measured 24 inches all the way round. My arms just seemed to get bigger and bigger, many people used to ask how I got them that big especially Nasser el Sonbaty.

Did they call this guy "Dinosaur" because his kidneys went extinct?

Imagine the person that's waiting for a kidney too without having caused the illness in the first place - this douche basically killed someone.

Same analogy can be made of people with jobs who apply to other, better jobs while people who genuinely need work are also applying there, hoping to be hired. World is full of celf-centered wankstains.

No pics, just remember reading about it in the mags at the time.

When they look back at the ailments of bodybuilders of this generation...

i think the oil is going to be the worst thing for BBers...

Diuretics second.

with the high blood pressure from stimulants being third.

recreational drugs 4th.

and "steroids" being a way distant 5th.



I don't know where enlarged organs will land, but most athletes don't have insulin and HGH, so it's more of a niche discussion there.

Looks like his lifestyle was a train wreck heading for either heart problems Matarazzo style or Kidneys...which ever comes first:

DIET PLAN:
 
(off season) I ate anything and everything, as much food as I can possibly eat in one day. But I always made sure I had a huge intake of protein.
