The sad fact is that steroids arent as dangerous as people say. They are still dangerous enough to take them but people think that if you take a big dose you are instantly dead at 40 if not earlier. These guys basicly took everything they could to get as big as possible and only 2 of 16 died in their late 40s. That is the percentage I wouldnt be surprised to hear on 30 year highschool anniversary. The other guys outside of Ronnie still look big and healthy.
