Bigger, Stronger, Faster

Has anybody seen the movie "Bigger, Stronger, Faster" (2hour doc about steroid use, released this year)

www.biggerstrongerfastermovie.com/

im busy getting it... should have it by tonight. just wanted to know if anyones seen it. should be goooood!!

I'm quite keen to see it. Apparently it went down quite well at the Sundance Film Festival. John Romano played a big part in the writing of the movie.

unfortunately, the one i got was fake. doesnt work. im f****** pissed off. gonna go beat the kid next door with roid rage... Jokes.
as soon as it gets released on DVD though, my cousin in the states will send me a copy and then i;ll arrange for everybody check it out. sorry folks. shows over. for now.

I ordered the DVD last week. Will let you guys know how it is when I get it.

I have also heard about this film. Can't seem to get my hands on it here in SA... please keep me in the loop.

The documentary examines the steroid use of the director Christopher Bell and his two brothers, Mark and Mike Bell (wrestler),[4] who all grew up idolizing Arnold Schwarzenegger, Hulk Hogan, and Sylvester Stallone, and also features professional athletes, medical experts, fitness center members, and US Congressmen talking about the issue of anabolic steroids.[5]

Beyond the basic issue of anabolic steroid use, Bigger, Stronger, Faster* examines the lack of consistency in how America views drugs, cheating, and the lengths people go to achieve success.

This includes looking beyond the steroid issue to such topics as Tiger Woods laser eye correction to 20/15 vision, professional musicians use of anxiety reducing drugs, or athletes' dependence on cortisone shots, which are a legal steroid.

The film also takes a skeptical examination on claims to the health risks of steroids and is highly critical of the legal health supplement industry.

U no, i say F*@K AMERICA...
I hate how they propergate themselves as rightious, when they all f-d up...So this is pretty good, it will hopefully shed some light on the truth and not the blanket they throw over our eyes...

Didn't one or more of the Bell brothers die recently?

Yeah I also wanna see it but haven't made an effort to get it.

Finally got it and watched it. Brilliant and I wish I could make a copy for every doos that ever questioned steroid use.

i watched it... well presented! :clapclap just feel some topics should have been more discreet, as a model for muscletech lost his contract (honesty not best policy)

* use torrents.. it works

@ror123 - Torrents ???

@Netro - I have just ordered the dvd, awaiting delivery, can't wait to view it - Thanks ! (Fuckit, only saw now that you posted this 6 months ago, dunno how I missed it)

If you want to admit to taking juice on camera you must probably be prepared to take the shit that comes with it. If you represent a company like Muscletech you've probably been told before hand not to discuss steroids use with anybody.

+1, and they still joke about it while filmin!!

NB1: search in google: bigger,faster,stronger, torrent download (minova or piratebay)- but still buy it, u can download it for "review" purposes, then get it from there use utorrent (a program), i knw its wrong, so rather buy it ! u need a big cap though

Yeah the oldest brother died in a rehab centre but its thought to be unrelated to steroid use. You could see in the movie that he was a carbon copy of Mickey Rouke's character in The Wrestler.

Anybody willing to copy the movie and send it to me???

Its 900Mb(call it 1 Gb) so it will cost you around R59 to download from Piratebay using something like BitTorent anyway.

Whats the cost for a legal copy? It cant be all that much and then at least youre supporting the guys who made it.

Heres what I do. I went to www.rapidshare.com and bought a premium account for like 40 euro for one full year. Then I go to www.katz.cd and there you can find ANYTHING you want. From movies to applications to games to everything latest. Its really worth it in my opinion if you have decent broadband for 40 euros you get tons of everything per year.

Sure, just send you details.

u know what i found stupid in this movie is? that one kids father saying that steroids killed his son,thats the biggest load of shit ever,he admitted that his son was on anti dressants and other drugs and he hung himself,the depression was what ended up making him hang himself and the hanging killed him,not the steroids... that father is looking for something other than his own neglect of his child to blame for the death of his kid..yes loosing a child is tragic but fuck sakes its not the steroids that drove him to put the rope up and kill himself,it was neglect and the feeling of not being able to be open with his parents...thats ultimately what caused his death...
