Do you know if he had a speed problem in his competitive days? Amphetamines?

For some reason, I thought he was born in 1944.

No I didn't but a lot of bodybuilders from that era did as well.

The_Coach was talking about some Masters competitors passing around speed backstage to get cut.

A couple of fellows on the Iron Age and Iron History boards mentioned that he was a very bad drunk for a long time, and it took its toll on him. I believe he cleaned himself up in the last decade or so, I hope he had a few good years.

Like most BB from that era he probably died as a bitter, broken man - constantly thinking he should have had the career Arnold had. :'(

What did he end up dying of?

I think by 2005, he had put that debauchery behind him.

RIP.

Did he use speed?

not sure the relevance,  if he did it was 30-40 years ago.  that would suggest it
is pretty safe.

Did he die from systemic damage to his body from using speed?

Not sure. I haven't seen a cause, but translated German papers mention that they've been having charity events to help him out the last few years. His Instagram is here - https://www.instagram.com/p/B2FBHwUDn-n/ . He looks a little off in a few pictures.
