Man Whose Arms Exploded, The

Gregg Valentino is the official owner of the biggest biceps in the world; they're an astonishing 27 inches in diameter. Gregg also openly admits to using steroids, a confession which has not only rocked the body-building world to its core but also raises grave concerns for his health.
He once pumped his arms so full of potent steroids that his left bicep developed a haematoma and burst. This powerfully visual film lifts the lid on professional body building which has traditionally remained tight-lipped about the use of drugs to achieve the incredible muscles seen in competitive events. It reveals the extraordinary lengths people are willing to go to to get the drugs they need and the risks they take in doing so. (texte officiel du distributeur)
