5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent!!!

Finally the truth about the Ben Johnson' case. The whole world know that the american athletes only compete "in juice". Always there were stories about a tam arriving in a country to a competition and, when knew that they have a dopping test, the whole team returned to america. Also, is was commom, some years ago, that always when a no american athlet won a international competion, some "dopping test" take back the medal and it fall in american hands. We, that live in another countries always was intrigued how it can happen ,if american atlets are always " in juice"?!!
This docummentary show how, explainin that Ben Johson/Carl Lewis controversy and we have only a honest conclusion to this: in a competition wiht all athletes juiced, the real champion was Ben Johnson, not Carl Lewis. However, this film show much more than this and help to clear some myths against steroids.

A much more message dominates the whole film: Why these poor people think that they only worth if they "the first one, the better one, the bigger one"? This point apperas to in Bowling for Columbine. What is wrong with a view of a whole society that can not be happy being good husband, good worker, good friend, good father or mother? THIS IS RESULT OF A IDEOLOGICAL BRAINWASH! You have no right to happiness if you are not a "perfect gear to the system".

Only a point I think that is a little exagerating: Arnold Schwarzenegger is the "dark ship" in this film. Please, when he began, so much muscles was a obstacle, not a advantage, to actor career! He launched a new standard because he is a PERSONALITY. The secret never were his muscles or he never would act in another movies beyond adventures. We always like his face, his voice, his charisma, and if in USA there are thousands of musclemen, the most in juice, how explain that they are not so famous as Schwarzenegger? The muscles never was the answer to success, there is no shortcuts to explain this, some people have qualities that, as unique human beings, help them to be a success in some goals and are obstacles to another, and the most of them are innate qualities, not created qualities, as a brainwasher ideology would like the people believe.

The problem with steroids is the truth: if the champions always tell the truht and the people can choose if they want to risk their health to be "hugge" or "the first one", or if they will choose ohter goal or other heroes that do't use them. For example, if you know that a man 5'9" only can reach 220 lbs with natural training you can be satisfied and a sucess weighting 200-220. But if you, because steroids, believe that a man 5'9" can wieght 280lbs, you will kill yourself trying to reach this, and when you reach ONLY 220lbs you can think that you are a failure. If you know the truth you can choose the truth or the cheating, and analize your sucess in a more realistic base (220 to natural, 280 to juiced). The truth free us, always!

5.0 out of 5 stars Calls out so many things
Reviewed in the United States on October 9, 2016

I really loved this documentary. There are so many things that the American taboo against steroids overlook:
1) The gov't fought this in baseball more than any issue, like Hurricane Katrina, healthcare or homelessness.
2)The classic alcohol/tobacco kill more, and even marijuana is much higher on the list of emergency room visits than anabolic steroids.
3)Tiger Woods had laser eye surgery for 20/15 vision, so he could read the greens in golf like a god.
4)What about using it without competing? Some want to be as strong as possible, or allow everyone to compete with steroids so it is no longer an unfair advantage.
5)Captain America's super serum was essentially a steroid, so it is embedded with American culture.

It also touches the aspect of the letdown meeting childhood heroes as you grow up as they only let you see the pipe dream (what they wanted you to see as a child), and not the flaws you find as an adult.

It was educational to see why this taboo exists, to simply win at the (modern) olympics and not make a mockery of America's pastime of baseball.

I like the themes of:
1) Your mileage may vary - roid rage is dangerous to a small percent of users in the same way that peanuts is (I am allergic to peanuts)
2) Like with alcohol and tobacco, let kids' bodies develop.
3) This creates a forum for people to debate and even have our youth become aware of moderation should they choose to use it, rather than have them overdose.

4.0 out of 5 stars Facts? What are those?
Reviewed in the United States on January 16, 2014

I found this documentary to be very entertaining as well as informative.

The documentary discusses the hypocrisy behind the origins and current laws associated with anabolic steroid use and does so in a very entertaining manner. The sad truth is that many of the myths about steroids were driven by pseudoscientific beliefs and not actual science.

This issue is similar to the rising problems in childhood vaccinations. The belief that vaccinations -- treatments that nearly ended polio, whooping cough, small pox, etc. -- cause autism was started by 1998 fraudulent publication by Andrew Wakefield. Note that in 2010, Wakefield was found guilty of 36 charges including 12 counts of abusing developmentally challenged children. Wakefield's original article was funded by parties that should have been considered conflicts of interest. Yet even so, people are starting to believe that vaccinations cause autism even when they have no evidence to show this relationship.

Contrary to popular belief, steroids are used in numerous medical treatments (e.g., autoimmune diseases are often treated with prednisone) and no study has found that steroid use or withdrawal from steroid use directly causes depression and suicide. I liked this movie because the creator was honest and actually showed both sides of the arguments without injecting too much personal bias. The funniest part of the show is when one of the world's leading experts in steroid research starts listing off horrible sounding side effects. The viewer is led to believe these are due to steroid abuse, but in fact, the list is associated with vitamin C abuse.

sehr interessant da es relativ kritisch betrachtet wird. auch deshlab da die hauptdarstellt selbst wissen wovon sie reden da sie diverse mittel selbst genommen haben. ein wenig zu kurz kommt für mich der einblick was die nebenwirkungen betrifft. auf das wird relativ kurz eingegangen bzw hätte es für mich persönlich mehr sein können. aber das wäre dann auch vlt zu trocken geworden vom thema her. im grunde super doku die ich nur empfehlen kann. interessant ist auch dass es nur lt dieser doku nur 3-4 (?) nachweisliche todesfälle durch steroide gibt, da sieht man wieder wie sehr man sich statistiken richten kann bzw wie sehr diese dinge von außen (firmen, sponsoren, marketing, usw) beeinflusst werden können. den auf steroide sind schon mehr als genug leute frühzeitig verstorben. nur sind die venenverengungen die zum herzstillstand führen wahrscheinlich sehr dehnbar zu erklären und immer auslegungssache. vor allem sehr viele frühere wrestler aus den 90ern sind im alter zwischen 39 und 45 verstorben. komischer weise alle durch herzprobleme. in jedem fall eine super doku - kaufempfehlung

If you only ever watch two bodybuilding movies, then get this and Pumping Iron. With the latter you get to see a depiction of the nostalgic, glory-days of the then-niche sport. With the former you get to see how money has twisted and distorted this once inspirational pastime into a juggernaut of an industry propped up by lies and deceptions aimed at extracting your money. Bigger, Stronger, Faster is the movie I wish I'd made myself. It blows the lid on the common delusion that most sports are drug-free, and all our sporting heroes are clean. But its real tour de force is its robust rebuttal of the mainstream demonisation of anabolic steroids. It genuinely opens up the debate beyond the stereotypical view of the mysterious drugs that supposedly turn normal people into psychotic megalomaniacs. These guys (elite sportsmen) are simply using performance enhancing substances to push the limits. Is it really cheating if everyone else is doing it? Watch this with an open mind and make an informed choice. If you know little about drugs in sport, watch this. It will probably change the way you see the world. And what more can a good documentary film do than that?
