He is only 5' 6" tall, but weighs about 250 pounds, has a 58 inch chest, can bicep curl 300 pounds and can bench press 550 pounds. His fame skyrocketed when he was featured in The Man Whose Arms Exploded, a TLC documentary highlighting the use and abuse of steroids.

In the documentary he recalls his misuse of steroids, namely not taking precautions necessary to prevent infection. Consequently he eventually came down with a very serious infection of his right biceps. After failed attempts to drain the hematoma himself, using the same needles he used to inject his steroids, and "filling two glasses with blood and pus" he sought emergency medical treatment. Ultimately his arm was saved, at the cost of a significant reduction in the size and shape of the biceps.
