[Hulkotron]

This is every getbigger's dream: fall over dead at 46, too big/muscular for your hot blonde fitness-model live-in girlfriend with huge fake tits to catch you.

In all seriousness I like Rich and hope he comes through =(

Powerlifter66, very sorry to hear about your brother bro =(  Take care.

This was just posted an hour ago on TMZ. It's not looking good for Rich. I hope I'm wrong....

Bodybuilding superstar Rich Piana had 20 bottles of steroids in his home at the time of his medical emergency ... this according to the police report obtained by TMZ Sports.
Cops were called to Piana's Florida home at 1:30 PM on Monday after the 46-year-old social media sensation suddenly collapsed in his bathroom while getting a haircut from his girlfriend, Chanel. 
Piana's girlfriend says she tried to catch the former Mr. California bodybuilding champ when he collapsed but couldn't due to his massive size and weight. Chanel told officials Piana struck his head during the fall. 
The 911 operator instructed Chanel to perform CPR but she was unable to revive him. 
When emergency personnel arrived, paramedics found crushed up white powder on a table along with a credit card and straw and decided to give Rich 2 doses of Narcan (often used to treat opiate overdoses) to try and revive him.
Chanel told responders Rich had battled opiate addiction in the past but she believed he was clean. 
Rich never regained consciousness and was transported to a nearby hospital where he was placed into a medically induced coma.
The report notes that police found bottles and bottles of testosterone in the home, 20 in total. Chanel said Rich is an admitted steroid user who's been juicing for more than 20 years. 
Chanel also noted Rich had suffered from a slightly enlarged heart at one point in his life -- but didn't know if that contributed to the medical emergency. 
Chanel says Rich is still alive and fighting -- but has asked for prayers.

It's a federal violation of Hipaa laws for a hospital to release to the public the results of drug tests on patients. Calling BS on that post.

Blonde Mctits could be disclosing it to the press.

The official source is prob the police and they don't care that much about privacy.

Why can't you people understand HE IS DEAD!!!!!!


Remember Carrie Fisher? Remember all the lies going on with her only to come out she was being taken off life support?

Same thing is going on here.

The only way the hospital could release information is if Rich signs a Release of Information, which allows disclosure of health information to otherparties (which also means Rich would have to be conscious).

That, or his girlfriend and/or family is spilling the beans.

It doesn't matter if he is dead. The hospital would still be in violation of HIPPA if they disclosed that he is dead.

That's just speculation.
I know a former top level amateur guy who was in a coma for almost a week at the age of 62. 3 years later he's still alive.

[Chadwick The Beta]

He's getting an oil change?

I literally laughed out loud and almost snorted.

Seems like it was just yesterday that he was slapping around Genova.

Yeah, I can confirm that he's in rehab with my cousin.  Apparently he's really nice to everyone, especially his family.

He's likely close to Rich and has been at the hospital the whole time.

[viking1]

If he pulls through this and recovers. I wonder what will be on his mind seeing his own body so deflated. Will he resume pushing the outer limits or go for the health look?

[Simple Simon]

He's likely close to Rich and has been at the hospital the whole time.

Chances are he's the consultant neurosurgeon.

[MORTALCOIL]

In lieu of flowers, contributions ought to be sent to the EPA's office of waste, chemical, and plastic disposal. 

Actually, what happens if he asked to be cremated? The guy that runs the oven might have a surprise when the corpse melts more than it burns.
