Romario Dos Santos Alves, 25, used the potentially lethal cocktail to pump up his biceps to 25in. He now faces several serious health issues. The former bodyguard says using the synthetic filler Synthol cost him his sanity and nearly his life—he tried to kill himself when his wife was six months pregnant. He also said his swollen muscles terrify children in his hometown of Caldas Novas, Brazil and they call him a "beast" and a "monster." (Source)
3Moustafa Ismail
It turns out you don't need to eat your spinach to get the world's biggest arms, but don't tell Popeye. Massachusetts bodybuilder Moustafa Ismail eats seven pounds of protein, nine pounds of carbohydrates and drinks three gallons of water each day to help maintain upper arms that measure 31 inches around—they are as big as a small man's waist. In 2012, he was given the Guinness World Record for his biceps, but some have signed a petition to have him removed from the list because his alleged Synthol abuse.
Jeff Dabe's the last guy you'd challenge to an arm wrestling competition. He was given the nickname “Popeye” thanks to his massive forearms which measure 20" in circumference.

5Arlindo de Souza
He's just like Popeye, only without the strength. Arlindo de Souza, a 43-year-old weightlifter, believes he has the largest arms in his native Brazil. The bodybuilder's biceps measure a staggering 29" around and are the product of a self-administered cocktail of mineral oil and alcohol. While his biceps may look the part, they don't act it. The bricklayer hasn't gained any strength and is only able to lift normal weights. De Souza injected himself with the conconction for two months in his attempt to become the top dog at his gym in Olinda, a city on the country's northeastern coast. The Brazilian isn't the only person resorting to using synthetic materials to bulk up his bod, as many others in the bodybuilding community are said to be doing the same. But the practice has proven deadly, claiming the life of his close friend, Paulinho. (Source)

Gregg Valentino is one of the most controversial, yet popular bodybuilding icons, and is considered by some as the biggest bodybuilder ever. He holds the record for the biggest biceps in the world at 28". He started bodybuilding at the age of 13 and after over 23 years of training naturally, Gregg decided to experiment with steroids (and some say he's injecting Synthol). During this time, his arms grew from an impressive 100% natural 21" to an inhuman 28". After years of steroids injections, his body finally fought back—his bicep "exploded.” He eventually went to jail for steroid possession and is now rebuilding his life.

Our planet has been home to countless billions of people throughout time. However, few have managed to leave their mark or contribute to the role and place of humanity more than scientists with their discoveries, inventions, and revolutionary thinking. Much of these people’s impact can be noted in their brilliant and powerful quotes. Our quest as a species has been and continues to ultimately be twofold: to find out who we are as individuals (self-discovery) and what our station is in the grand scheme of the natural world and the cosmic. For some, this may include a search for a higher power. On the other hand, others seek to understand the intricacies of nature and the cosmos.
Some of the people who have “changed the world” have been so inspirational and influential on human thought and humankind’s progress that many actively seek their nuggets of wisdom via powerful quotes.

From Socrates and Aristotle to Albert Einstein and Carl Sagan, these are 25 Powerful Quotes From Scientists That Are Truly Thought-Provoking.

Ancient Egyptians were some of the most religious people to inhabit the Earth. Because their knowledge was only a sliver of what we know today, they feared many things and had a strong belief in the supernatural. From this belief sprang a host of Ancient Egyptian gods. If there was a situation or a place which could have its own god, more likely than not there was one. While most of the deities were local presences, some such as Ra, Osiris, and Thoth were elevated to a national stage.
In this list, we’ve dug up – well, not literally; we’ll leave that for the archaeologists and grave robbers – these fascinating facts about the Ancient Egyptian gods and religious systems. Religion in Ancient Egypt wasn’t so different from religion today with its focus on doing good and earning a place in the afterlife.

I've been interested in art ever since I was young - taking art classes throughout school, camps during the summer, and practicing in my free time. Now that I've reached the ripe old age of twenty, I've decided to try to take my hobby to the next level. My first set of miniature watercolor paintings was created in secret - Christmas gifts for my family. They had fallen in love with these gifts - the looks on their faces had made me feel alive again. Their happiness and joy brought me back into the world of art. These miniatures would be the first step in branching out into the realm of sharing my work- something I've never been comfortable with doing. To liven up the photographs that I share on social media, I began adding fun props for size comparison. Something as simple as a coffee bean would show how small my works really were. Today, I am in love with art. I love the challenge of creating these teeny tiny pieces with watercolors. So I press on- creating new works every day- with my new found love. I'm turning my hobby into my career- and trying to make my artistic dreams come true. Finding beauty in the little things.
One of Australia’s most recognizable natural icon is a large sandstone rock formation called Ayer’s Rock or Uluru, located about 450 km away from the town of Alice Springs, in Northern Territory. Every year more than a quarter of a million tourists drive down the road from Alice Springs to visit the famous rock and its cousin Kata Tjuta. At some point during the long drive, the high profile of a large rocky mountain appears on the horizon. An excitement surges through the travellers who believe they have spotted the famous Uluru. After a flurry of photos, it eventually dawns on most of them that this rock actually looks quite different from Uluru's famous silhouette.
This rocky mountain that visitors encounter on their way to the Uluru-Kata Tjuṯa National Park is the lesser known Mount Conner. Locals sometimes call it “Fooluru” (or “Fuluru”) because it is known to fool tourists.

Back in the old days, one of the easiest way to raise money for a bridge’s maintenance was to rent space over the bridge to merchants and shopkeepers. Today, only four such bridges exist in the world. Update: Apparently, there are a few more. Pont des Marchands in Narbonne, France, is one example.
Ponte Vecchio, Florence
The Ponte Vecchio or the “Old Bridge” over the Arno River, in Florence, Italy, is one of the most iconic medieval bridges. The bridge has been home to shops across its span since the 13th century. Merchants would sell their goods on tables after receiving approval to do so from the proper authorities. When a merchant couldn’t pay his debts, the table on which he sold his wares (the "banco") was physically broken ("rotto") by soldiers, effectively shutting down their business. This practice was called "bancorotto" and is believed that the economic concept of bankruptcy originated here.
Getting older is something that nobody can avoid (except for vampires. Obviously). It happens to us all. But love never grows old. Well ok, maybe it does for some, but not for the loving couples in these pictures. while they may have aged in a physical sense, their love for each other still seems as young as the day that they first met. The pictures seek to remind us that although many things become harder with age (breakdancing. Long-haul flights. Hearing. Throwing tantrums in public. Walking. Sliding on your knees across a dance floor. The list goes on), one thing remains easy, and that's the ability to love.
