These Bodybuilders And Fighters Almost Died While Training

The Teenager Who Wouldn’t Quit

Oli Cooney was a British man who began working out at the age of 16. Determined to change his physique, he started on a course of intense workout regimens which included bulking-up supplements and anabolic steroids — the use of which he was not shy about. However, Cooney’s routine led him to have two heart attacks and three strokes by the time he was 18 years old. You would think that enduring those things at such a young age would be the ultimate warning sign, but it wasn’t enough to stop Cooney, who at one point told his nurse that he’d rather have another heart attack over a stroke.
