yeah he walked into a bank during a robbery and the robbers must have got scared becuase he is a giant and shot him. he was in a coma for a long time and he lost well over 50lbs of muscle. the doctors told him later that he would have died if he did not have so much muscle to sustain him. his section in BFTO2005 is also really good

Actually he was shot in the back 3 times with a .45 as someone was doing a drive by.
Cant remember exactly if it was a drive by on someone else on the street, or someone in the shop.....either way, his spine caught two of the bullets and the other went right through him.

"In August 1997, I got shot three times in a robbery attempt, in downtown Rochester. Two shots in my back and one in my stomach, I bled profusely and had major internal injuries, which brought me near death 7 times. I was rushed to surgery and had my kidney and bladder fixed, my lower spine fixed and half of my bowels removed. I ended up having my small intestine brought out to a pouch right above my right groin: an ileostomy. I spent 5 weeks recovering in the intensive care unit; my weight went down from 200 to 130 lbs."
props to him.. showed great determination to come back and win his pro card

him missing half of his intestine sucks in the process of the digestion of protein. So with his team he's built up his own whey protein formula, which is probably better for his messed up digestive system.

That guy is pretty amazing for coming back like he did after all that mess. A true bb Warrior. How many people could do such a thing? I'm sure him and Dorian share a lot in the department of pure inner strength to continue on.
Hope to see him competing again and again.

If it happened in 1997 then it pictures would be impossible to find since his first big show was in 1999. Here is his 2000 nationals pic next to Potenza.
