Dallas McCarver... DEAD!?

And that's the catch 22 for those whom are "experimenting" with Slin as a PED, bc both hyper and hypoglycemia can result in brain damage.

IFBB pro Josh Lenartowicz told 911 operator that he worried insulin may have had something to do with his collapse according to TMZ. The article also says Lenartowicz referenced McCarver's collapse at the 2017 Arnold Classic Australia in March 2017:

Dallas McCarver 911: 'There's Something In His Throat'

TMZ Sports has obtained the Dallas McCarver 911 call -- made by a friend who found the 26-year-old bodybuilder passed out in his apartment ... after apparently choking on food.

The friend tried like hell to help McCarver -- performing CPR and other lifesaving maneuvers -- but he wasn't able to bring him back.

The friend says McCarver had been taking Insulin -- and suggested he may have collapsed because of a medical condition related to the medicine, which usually treats diabetes.

McCarver had collapsed onstage at a bodybuilding event back in March. It seems the friend believes McCarver may have experienced a similar situation while eating, which led to the fatal choking episode.

McCarver was transported to a nearby hospital and was pronounced dead early Tuesday morning.



IFBB pro Josh Lenartowicz angry that TMZ released the 911 audio:



I'm very disappointed and angered at the release of the 911 tape. People are getting entertainment in my darkest hour. Everybody is so anti bullying but this is acceptable. Someone's life choice is their choice accept that people are different to you. When you are perfect judge others. People were blessed to have known @dallasmccarver he was a great human and the world is a little dimmer without his light. #rip
 
Why wouldn't ANYONE want to increase public awareness about how to save a friends life!


@Millard Baker can you enlighten me, why is JL being so hypercritical about this 911 tape being released.

Was HE the fella who found DC
unresponsive? Or is he responding to the negative publicity that follows the unexpected death of any public figure from movie star to BB.

If the latter is the case, I'd suggest he find some "thicker skin" bc a BBs speedo comes with
a lot of negative pub.

Don't mean to sound callused but
for obvious reasons it's important other runners understand what happened to both RP and DC.

And the fact so often the deaths of BB are hidden under a vail of secrecy only fuels the media frenzy about "what really did happen".

Thx for the update and all you do!

I suspect that Lenartowicz is upset because he freely revealed details of McCarver's drug use to the 911 operator with the expectation of privacy and the expectation that the information would solely be used to help save his friend's life. He may not have wanted this information public for a variety of reasons e.g. to protect him from judgment of the general public which doesn't understand or accept such bodybuilding lifestyle choices or to prevent him from being a spectacle in sensationalized gossip tabloid websites, etc.

As a harm reduction advocate, I agree with you. Maintaining the secrecy surrounding the deaths of bodybuilders provides a disservice to all the other recreational, amateur and professional bodybuilders who make similar lifestyle choices. Given that McCarver, Piana, etc were public figures, finding out as many details about the circumstances surrounding such tragic deaths is warranted to avert and minimize injury and tragedy among other bodybuilders who follow a similar path.

Your interpretation of the circumstances makes perfect sense IMO.

And its quite likely J.L. and many other elite BB fail to understand much of the "privacy" they once took for granted is forfeited upon entering the "public arena" under the guise of the open records act.

The net effect being, broadly defined, the publics interest superceeds that of individuals right to privacy within the PUBLIC domain, and for "public figures" the public domain is far reaching.

That was the one thing about Rich he openly discussed his AAS use for everyone to digest, But unfortunately from what it's looking like had a addiction problem with other rec drug's that he kept secret.

IME quite a few the "older" BB have difficulty accepting their less than youthful limits and begin using Narcs to make amends.,

It often begins with a legit RX
for some of the "milder" Narcs such as T-3 yet then progresses to involve schedule II opiates.

Eventually even their Docs are saying NO, and that's when this class of folk either accept their physical limitations OR obtain
what they WANT thru the black market.

A circuitous path may then develop in which the opiate abuser requires something to reverse the sedative properties and "energize my WO".

I suspect RPs GF best qualified their collective sentiment and ignorance with regard to the "pre-workout" use of Cocaine when she casually lamented "it's no big deal".

To that end a drug like cocaine in patients with "heart issues", is an accident waiting to happen!

And although the temporal relationship bt RPs use of Cocaine and the onset of cardiac symptoms remain unclear, it's quite possible COCAINE (rather than AAS) were the proximate cause of RPs death.

I might be in the minority here, but I still think that's it's very possible that he did in fact get choked.

If you've ever been a situation to where you were choking on food, you know that within a few seconds it turns into a true life or death moment. I've unfortunately have been on that side before. It happens so fast that you have no time to call for help. You can't even utter the word help... I know. My life was saved my a man in a Sonny's bbq restaurant. I had a maximum time of 10-15 sec before I was out cold. I couldn't talk, whisper, say anything. I knew I was in trouble. My wife tried to do the hymlic(?) on me but I was too big. A man next to us grabbed me and picked me off the ground twice, and I never knew it. He saved my life.

It can happen. I have a narrowing of the esophagus. I have to chew my food up very well. Dallas could've been facing the same problem. If he did, and was alone, there would be nothing he could do.
I know it's off topic but Sonny's BBQ is wicked good. Another thing I miss from FLA.
 
So dallas self induce hypogleximia?? He felt he could eat rice fast enough? Im diabetic and sometimes i do
Cheat on diet with juice because food wont disolve fast enough!!!

Link to said "I suspect RPs GF best qualified their collective sentiment and ignorance with regard to the "pre-workout" use of Cocaine when she casually lamented "it's no big deal". " comment because from all the interviews I have seen of her she has adamantly DENIED their use of COCAINE as a PWO but said they used a MUTANT formula as a PWO which he preferred to SNORT.

Naw. My step-daughter dated Dallas on and off a few years ago and she is still close with the family. She told my wife they found 100% blockage. Not sure how many arteries it was.
