Yes I thought this also. Chris really was a great guy. He always kept in touch with me. I had talked to him not to long ago. I'm pretty sure he was going through a divorce but can't say for sure. RIP

Yes, wife left him recently apparently due to him having an affair.  Feel for his kids, terrible.

Strongmen, powerlifters dispite how fat some are healthier and live A LOT longer than bodybuilders. I don't know what Chris died from but these guys are dropping like flies.

I'm not sure about that. If you look at only the last 10 years of strongman, we've seen the deaths of two Top 5 WSM competitors.

I heard about this earlier this morning. I've never had personal interaction with Chris, but I listened to him on Gear'd Up and he always seemed like a really nice guy who had nothing but good things to say about others.
He posted on PBB and then disappeared, I figured he retired from bodybuilding and started focusing more on the family life. From what I understand it was suicide, at least that's what McVey is hinting at.
RIP, Chris. Wish things ended differently for you  :(

I remember that guy from way back on the boards.  Used to go by the name of Chris250.


On a side note.  A stray cat may have gotten the best of him and scratched out his eyes causing massive bleeding.
Yup he has been around for a while. RIP.

Vince, I give a damn about Pro bbing and even I know who Robert Burneika is. You act like you are some kind of insider and you post a pic of Burneika claiming is some random NPC guy?

Sure it was.  People who use that amount of steroids for so long are not mentally stable to begin with and those drugs just enhance all of those underlying issues.

Yes, wife left him recently apparently due to him having an affair.  Feel for his kids, terrible.

Bodybuilding has had that just in the last couple weeks and how many in the last 10 years??
