the creepy-est bodybuilder story 2007 or, let us hope, ever
In June, Montreal-born pro wrestling superstar Manuel Benoit strangled his wife, suffocated his 7yearold son, and placed a Bible next to their bodies before hanging himself with a weight-machine pulley at their home near Atlanta. Authorities found anabolics in the house and speculated that the 40yearold Benoit may have become unhinged by the bodybuilding drugs, which can cause paranoya, depression and explosive outbursts known as ‘roid rage’. An autopsy was performed, and tests conducted on Benoit’s brain showed severe damage and advanced dementia.
