the longer the bride reports themselves in south korea. another milestone in north korea's missile development, setting a record with the launch of what south korean and japanese officials believe could be a new type of solid fuel intercontinental ballistic missile. it reached directly breaking out that you'd have 7000 kilometers traveling out into space before crushing into the sea to the west of the japanese island of her condo. and not all that is why japan's defense ministry suspects. it could possibly be a different messiah than in the past. officials from the west and south korea have condemned the launch, which came soon after a meeting between the defense ministers at which they discussed with ports that north korea is sending thousands of soldiers to support russia's rule against ukraine. i call upon them to cease their potentially the stabilizing behavior

in both the endo pacific region. and now in the, in the european theater as well report suggest young young has been significantly increasing get support for moscow since president vladimir putin. summit you get this? yeah. south korea fee is russia could be supplying advanced rocket a nuclear technology in which to the extent to which north korea and russia had been cooperating militarily, was highlighted in a brief thing this week by intelligence officials, the south koreans will make. cuz when they also wound about this icbm launch, as well as a possible for the nuclear test, to tell him from the possibility of a 7th nuclear test cannot be ruled out internal preparations at boom, gary, whether notes, comments, and you click the test site is located appear to be almost finished. its thoughts, such a test could be timed to coincide with the us elections,

public broad. i'll just say era. so and you're going to is going to buy cards next month. so un climate summit in azerbaijan, the photo minister will pop on you again. he says, the talks are a waste of time and is blaming polluting nations. the pacific island nation is home to the world. the 3rd largest, reinforced by the island, is highly vulnerable to the effects of climate change. mexico is mocking the day of the dead sizes of visitors gather each, eager to admire. the artistic display food candles, sweets, figures of skulls, a part of the unique festivities and pre has spent most hispanic tradition. many families use the day to remember their dad and celebrate life. fault lines is next and i'll just see it on the don't forget the website of course audra 0 dot com a lot more background information and all the stories of accounting over the last few hours on robots and how it's reported to look at actual information on the

ground looks at the way that this issue is framed and the media. how is used to justify the escalation fu escalation, anything new years that are known as a media. and they think it's how it is weaponized is this online course has been aimed at the smartphone generation. the 1st ever email, let operational tank do they would they are trying to sell right now is a full blown genocide. the listening pace because the media on out is era. the audience going? was he left the? yes. he was lifting the flight. wait. how is it here? 6, the so when he got older, you know,

when you're on stage it's being high. people are clap and you get a lot of people coming to you at a given you endorsements. boston though i grew up in a world of jims and steroids by the late teens. he was competing in body building, doing the mirror, make sure about an issue out and go right guys, don't be like, oh, you know, like going all slow. and he became one of the 1st people to share his experience using performance enhancing drugs on social media. so when the internet came on, boston became famous because of it. so it's not how shars you can go anywhere on the internet and find out what drugs do. what therefore, where when yet, how to ingest? boston helped start a trend that is spread as social media as grow doctor and now a new generation of them hold sir richard promoting illegal body building drugs

classified as research chemicals. some of these drugs have been linked to organ damage, heart failure. in some cases, i've seen over 10000 patients in 20 years, and the age continues to go down. and the numbers and the incidents continue to the law. in this episode of fault lines, we look into the world of illegal body building drugs, targeting young men on social media, the floodgates of open. and now men are just being bombarded with images of perfect bodies. they're really as, as a precedence for men's having an algorithm, target them with these images. it's like the gladiators. yeah. because you want to be the perfect body. there is to me, since i know the science and all this stuff, it doesn't worry me that much because i'm young and i'm willing to take the rest the. ready into account, exactly have

a day care and that we had the nannies there and he played with the other kids there. the when boston was growing up in the 19 ninety's, his parents, marie and john help run 3 goals, jims and california. you soon fall within their foot steps and became a body builder. what did boston 1st tell you if you wanted to compete? so his 1st contest, i think he was 17 and he won. but he did it naturally then from there to want it more because she was competing against other kids that were doing it also. or. so that's the part in bodybuilding. you know, you're genetically better. but that person next to you is using and you're not, and you just lost after winning the big contest in 2013 most included

a video detailing every truck he used to prepare for the ship. he was 21 at the time for me like to walk through or what it was for the front up on me. like down he took definitely. and your last because yeah, i did take below my age but actually know what i'm doing. it was one of the 1st times a body builder, one on social media to share the type in dosage of the drugs that they were taking . boston, definitely open up the gate to talk openly a lot about steroids, the minutes partner ariel, the little body builder, shortly after when we were long distance use to send videos to another. the, the wanted a more like streamline, busy like kind of like the old school streamlined back in the day and that's bonnie building. now, you're being judged solely based on how you look. not on how healthy you are. it's

only how you book with boston's popular degree, the more who shared about his use of bodybuilding drugs like what's, what's the crazy cycle you've ever done? probably crazy cycle. anyone's them. i've done 12 ccs a day for about a about did over 12 grams of gear for last 3 weeks before i mess my nerve of them are i just like to experiment man. like nobody talked about civil rights back that nobody had his internet persona. he was very blunt, very open, very honest. so that sells itself and he took a lot of pride in that. and the last one is anabolic of muscle building. steroids have long been used by athletes and body builders, as their risk became known to us band, their use without a prescription and 1994. but new drugs were developed and they were also abused. in 2014, congress passed a law banning $25.00 additional steroids, boston and other influencers began promoting drugs that are still in the experimental phase of development. the cold research chemicals,

the mindset of the fitness enthusiast is for many people. i want the best thing for fat burning. i want the best thing for muscle building and as those are ban gold and what is the next best thing? and that's why the industry keeps on evolving. these chemicals are produced for medical research, but they haven't been approved for human groups because they haven't been tested or thinking of danger side effects. when you buy these, you're on their site and you have to acknowledge it's not for human consumption. and then when it comes that on the box, it says when you open it big, there's a big not for human consumption. meanwhile, you're mixing it up and injecting it into your body. one of the most popular types of research chemicals for bodybuilders are called selected androgen receptor modulators or storms. others are change of amino acids called peptides. i think that storms and peptides have become very popular and in many ways more popular

than steroids is because i think that in general i believe misconception is that steroids are really bad. and whereas farms and peptides are safe, peachy, brawn made a small fortune sewing supplements to body builders, some of which included research chemicals. so my 1st year was just me. i did 200000 and sales your to i did 1200000 and year 3, we did 9800000 and that's when people really started talking about us. and i, i really believe that it was all due to how we capitalized on social media. have you tried so far as boss? of course. yeah. i'm on you out. most of the deals with companies to promote some of the research chemicals and supplements he was using us with a company called transform mix peptide. we still have shirts from them on the back us as a research purposes only. you know, what do you think is the most profitable thing that you've done in so far as business go with the transformer? it's by far, is the, the number one, money maker for me right now. a lot of these companies will just send pop types of

boston, all different companies. oh, or sources sources that may be had this arms as well and other things that boston was taking. who's coming here to get my fridge for the stuff on the news in the saw arms in the pub diets or use widely by just about anyone. but unfortunately a lot of the young guys think that they're doing themselves a service or they're better off. hey, i don't not ready for steroids, touch wrong. actually some of the storms, myself and a lot of the other research academics in this world feel that the worse. but we don't have any support for that in any clinical trials because no one is doing clinical trials. dr. thomas o'connor specializes in treating conditions related to the abuse of performance enhancing drugs. the top 5 saw arms were intended for medical use. yeah, they never made it to the end of the trials for human, utility and madison. so they're just, they're sitting in that,

in that quagmire. why? because the side effects, i think because there were some significant hyper tension, you know, cardiac concerns. one, it animal studies cancer. he's watched research chemicals explode in popularity over the years. and he spoke to boston about his use of these drugs and a radio interview in 2015. you want to not your parents. if your parents are listening, you may, you, you, you don't care if you die 1st little do i think i'm reside tomorrow. no, i basically, you know, i was like your young kid. you don't know your home, the ground. you're going to kill yourself. you're going to die. just seems wildly dangerous to point is very dangerous. it's a wild west. despite warnings for his friends and family boss to continue to experiment, he started injecting a peptide called a tip, a tide. there's no human studies done on it. it's been research on monkey and mice, but basically it's a peptide that not just shrink stroud cells,

but kills fat cells. and i'm guessing and i was shooting it around my kidney, that area like low back area where my kidneys are, are shooting in my chest, my and i was using a bottle a day, which is 5 milligrams because there is no dosing protocols on this at all. he would have a good appetite and then about appetite and then throw up and he felt sick and i thought, did you eat something bad? maybe you're not digesting fluids properly. boston went to the doctor to see what was wrong and found out his kidneys were failing in the case, and mister lloyd appears to suffer to hear reversal, re not wondering at the end of the day, what this is saying is, boston killed his kidneys with out of a tide, a peptide, yep, a peptide research chemical way might have been a, a message from the man upstairs saying, hey, i'm going to give you this warning sign, right? because if you keep going, you'll have a heart attack or something like that, but worse was a candidate for a transplant. yeah,

so he was currently going through all of the testings to see if you're a candidate. the only thing is when he was doing these tests, things they didn't see that he had something wrong with his heart. on the morning of february 25th, 2022 boston's clarkie about what working out at the gym down the street from his home. he was $29.00 and left behind a 3 year old son. so i sat down there as fast as i could, and he was dead as a part, as he looked like a superhero. so when you're saying that somebody dying a superhero on the table, and i'll never forget that day. and just a few days before i had said, you can't die out of kenny disease from nowhere, right? i said that worries me so much. nope, my heart is good baby. there are clear signs where i would need to get on dialysis before that would ever happen. this was

3 days before he passed. it can be so scary it's. it's just not knowing what can happen inside your body. and just because you feel healthy doesn't mean you're always healthy. so i want to share with you this is not a top seat from boston. okay. take a look at that and i see i didn't, i never saw it. i didn't want to see it. or because it's just too painful to see. so this is from the years steroids right here. this is a body that's destroyed, not oil, don't know, 100 percent destroyed from drugs and stage kidney disease. you should have been in dialysis and this in the forced out and i'm gonna be 50 m. c. g is entering each pack. boston's death for perforated throughout the fitness world. but it didn't

stop young body builders from using steroids and research chemicals or posting about it online. first of all, the social media and promoting destruction. oh my lord. we don't even know the numbers now off the chart. because the social media study by the center for countering digital hate in 2023 found tech talks showing body building drugs, we're seeing over half a 1000000 times in the us. and 3 years, 420000000 views were from 18 to 24 year olds. is data for instagram and youtube is not available. every young person wants to be famous online or have cloud online. and because of the algorithms, physical perfection is a way that you can gain followers and these like yeah, i'll talk a spoke to dozens of teenage boys, somebody on his 13 or new york times investigation into the negative effects of fitness content growing up in this new environment we are seeing new digital rites

of passage from boyhood, from manhood for young adulthood, for these men. and one of them is, do i take its arms? when do i takes arms out of 40 boys that i spoke to? all of them said that they were not only aware of research chemicals, but open to doing them. we wanted to understand the next generation of fitness and someone's here speaking open to think about their use of performance enhancing drugs on social media. and 2nd of all your future, ontario static water. so we reached out to arnold to a 21 year old body builder from college station, texas, who calls himself the trend for a play on the name of an anabolic story turn below. we met with them the night before, a bodybuilding competition and built the texas. he's here with this coach, eat this sip this as you need just so your mouth isn't get dry. probably. so you

can either this person, the videographer and his mom who traveled all the way from shanghai to watch them compete. everybody and it's at our show use as though photos all year for instagram and they constantly are putting those photos up where it's coming. how do you feel about your physique right now when you look at it? you're never so so i'm never satisfied. there's always, there's all is going to be better if you don't go to the mirror and look for satisfaction. you look for areas to improve because you had these great athletes have to pay the way for us and then it's just evolved and now with social media and everything is just become more popular and more mainstream. now where it's like, just because i can put the effort in investing myself, i can make a name for myself. i can make a brand. i can basically have my life. i want it based on just my physique. so

you do it. so there's now 2 incentives here. one is to do it to get a body that performs well and the other is a branding opportunity to sell these products to other young man. that's effectively what it's all about for them. that's how they make money. what triggered you to think this is something i want to do when i started doing social media, it was just sort of a fun posting stuff that i liked. things that i thought was funny. some of those things blue i was, i was great. and if you keep on doing this, you can make it, you know, in some sort of fashion, right? and so that's what i found doing. here is one of the tough towards the sort of the exit. another works with one of the most popular research chemical companies in the us research can you receive the commission for every product sold using a promo code? and as all of this stuff meant for what you're taking it for, is it all legal? have to say that yeah, research purposes only because it's on

a label. so how many different types of those things do you think are part of your routine? if we combine androgens and we combine peptides, i would be pushing into research. now obviously in a box towards the research kim, it's very popular and social media through simple searches on tick tock, instagram and youtube. we found dozens of examples of videos between their products and instructing viewers on how to use the facilities. structured human consumption is illegal to experience negative side effects. everybody does. i need to like, what was things id sometimes, right? it could maybe start hearings, id, mood swings here in their non major. for me it's nothing major because i know what i'm doing. like you did with boston, dr. o'connor worn during the about as use an experimental drugs. this arnold really know what he's doing. he's not as reckless as most of or i can tell you that he's

not, but he is looking for the attention and he's getting it is over 200005 hours on fisher graham. these are some drugs you can get on a research camp site. he's promoting them to his audience, to use his promo code and go order these fits 5. if i don't agree with that, i disagree with that. it's bad. why it's on apple is selling drugs. not everything's deadly, but it's like this kind of combination of unregulated substances being put into these young bodies. also with these extreme strict diets, you know, it's almost like these guys are guinea pigs. it's not good for them, but we don't really know how bad because most doctors don't even know this is happening. there's kind of a, a cavalier thing in your videos that i know these things are dangerous and that appeals to young voice. and so when the, the brand is centered around something that's dangerous, i just wonder if you reconcile that you might be influencing people. i don't worry

because if they want to do it, they're going to do anyways. even if social media companies enforce their own goals around drug related content, it wouldn't prevent the sale of these drugs. that job falls to the us food and drug administration, or the f d a. and we wanted to ask someone at that the a why it's so easy to buy these kind of chemicals online in america. but after months of asking, they declined a request for an interview. but we were able to talk to someone who was on the front lines of the agencies fight against the rise of research chemicals. eric flag was a special investigator at the da for a decade to try to track down on the sale of these drugs. this isn't the dark web, this is instagram, correct? i don't understand how something can be so evidently illegal. and so in the open some $1000000.00 question is somebody at the fda one which is really the main regulatory body i think willing to step up and actually do something about this at a minimum. why not reaching out to the, to the platform and say, hey,

look what this kids knew, it was a legal what he's promoting is a legal, it's harmful to the american public. you need to shut this page down. we need to shut the site down. the, at the i told us in the statement that they carefully prioritize their limited resources to focus on the most severe cases involving research chemicals. but eric says, the lack of oversight on the sale of these drugs is not about resources. so even if you had all the agents, you want it without having a headquarters that supports doing something about this issue. would it make a difference now? it's like spitting in the way that does, it doesn't matter because again, the structure of how, which is done is nothing known investigations are done without headquarter support . and then without the center support. and if they didn't support a, it just got next. and it never went any further from there, this up to you is the your to regulate these chemicals poses a threat to the american public. in my opinion, it does, it does pose a threat. one of the few companies prosecute about that the for selling research chemicals was blackstone labs,

p j serve nearly 2 years in prison. so they went after you just send a message, the message was careful selling these kind of things right back off, i'm being too aggressive on selling this classification of drugs. do you think that message was successful when you look at the industry today? i don't think that what happened to us really changed anything in the body building fitness industry does more of it out there now. it's incredible. actually in 2 years i see so much have tied and storm talk all over the place. now, the secrecy around the sale of all of these products and mix the company is difficult to regulate. the owner of research come, goes to great lengths to conceal his identity. do you know who he is? is that when they buy the arch, he's don't know, believe none of the people that are involved. me and my colleagues have seen him seen his face or you know, know his real name. yeah. why do you trust the drug side?

because they're a 3rd party testing and the reputation, i mean, not myself. i mean countless of people have testimonials from this company like that by their products, right? the people that maybe do the same thing, i do that or not affiliated with a company or another influence or for research kim we spoke to also claimed to not know the owner. and a rare case in which they have to shut down a research chemical company. eric receive crucial information from a source vault. mine's is reviewing for the 1st time. on page 22, there's a source that's referred to there as b l like tom's. yes. can you imagine if i'd be on this, that was boston, boston, like you said, he was with a company called transform x peptide, boston and confronted them about the quality of some of their products. because he was getting complaints the best he actually came to the house in boston divided a man and you kind of explain the whole situation to um, even though he was promoting the usage and sale of these products,

i think he wanted to help us clean up the industry that's just like everything is if a side you don't really know what you're, what you're getting from what you see people post stuff online and they lie about the results of certain products just to get you to buy them. the new place. second open means busy import, an open classic busy. i'm pretty happy with the results because last time i place 3rd and open and see and did it. and project open. so now obviously we made improvement before our an old try, but this i never know how men can be used for any concerns about his health. oh yeah, i can think nice things to stop histories. i only can do

to support k and the car is for him to choose hes doing well i'm. i'm hoping for him. yeah. yeah. and he referred expulsion or in the body products or yeah. oh yeah. any not, any mother that lose their son is a to young age, there's going to be regrets. i do regret not talking to him more about the steroid world. and i mean, because he was so powerful, i didn't. i didn't come down on him or i didn't know how he yeah, that was just 2 days, 2 days before he passed. he would have never left us had he known. right. but that's the point is you don't know. that's why these things are so dangerous. i think all those little things that can experimenting would he have regret at that?

i think he was really was. would he ever regret it? taking it that far to boost his life a 100 percent. he loved by the the repair. it is sure visual and see us in the through possible. that means i wasn't here. i shot into a controversial us know stand your ground. you're saying that these laws actually encourage more violence, given your savings, the right to kim. we're sending the message that you can just do this. this is ok and denying justice to victims. families lines investigate licensed q on out to 0. the
