No actual cause of death and no mention of drugs so why the article?

Why do I have to use Tor to access Daily Mail articles? LOL.

He looked like he was probably the legend of his gym. He probably had a key to the gym and could take anything from the drink cooler. And ate his meals at the smoothie bar or on the sofa in the lobby.

Don't you dismiss genetics LOL. Ken Patera is still alive at 82, several health nuts probably died this minute before age 30. Not to say PEDs are risk free of course 8)

Correction age 57.

The article said the guy was a 2004 Mr. Universe.

Checked Nabba and I don't see his name in 2004.

What federation would he be?

Please don't tell me he was natty.
