Would have been pharmacy stuff in pill form like dexedrine or something similar, surely?  Can't see him snorting lines of powder - wouldn't seem scientific (to him)...

(Cue someone saying that's exactly what he did LOL)


I'm just curious about the rumors . Them pills back then we're way better than the ones now

A good pic of mike
Though his waist/ obliques look a bit funky - has it been shopped
Or just me being overly critical.

It does make his hips look wide.

His hips were always wide but I have NOT touched that picture

Should've just bothered to read the thread. Seems most of these pics have been posted by ND already.  ;D

Nice odour of cigarette smoke emanating from mike when he walks back into the gym.

On a more serious note wasn’t this one of the last video’s he recorded
Both mike & ray died far too young - shame they were both in such poor health.

Ray kept his dignity to the end. Mike still had his vocabulary. Sad to hear Ray couldn't get a woman. The ones in the gyms were too young he said.

Ray was 47 and Mike 49. Ray was hoping Mike could donate one of his kidneys but Mike's health was too poor to allow an operation. When Mike died

Ray gave up on life as his routine tied to that dialysis machine and being alone would have depressed him deeply. He died two days after Mike.

Very sad for both of them. Smart guys who ended up like that sure is ironical because Ray was rather cavalier about steroids. He took pain killers

because his neck gave him trouble. All those super heavy weights impacted on his health. He told me he once squatted 925 pounds for two reps.

Ray was very underrated. More classic lines than Mike, but great in his own way.

So what the heck did Ray die of?

autopsy reports showed potentially lethal levels of opiates if i recall. maybe not the cod in mikes case, but with ray i get more suspicious due to the timing.
