Bodybuilder Nearly Lost Arms After Injecting Muscles with Synthol

Bodybuilder Romario Dos Santos Alves, who could be mistaken for the Incredible Hulk, spent a lot of time and effort building a large frame.

Although he was proud of his muscles, what he was doing to his body nearly cost him his arms.

The bodybuilder had been injecting himself with synthol, which eventually led to his muscles turning into rock. A doctor told Alves that he would need to have both of his arms amputated.

Alves had accepted the reality that he would lose his arms. However, on the morning the procedure was supposed to take place, he found out that amputation wasn't necessary.

Watch the video to hear Alves talk about his life-changing experience.
