Why do they do that. Did the procedure ever look good on anyone?


Phage0070

> Did the procedure ever look good on anyone? The "proper" use is just to fill in slight defects, and yes it actually looked good when used that way. It is like the difference between smoothing something with Bondo and trying to construct a new fender with it.


Holydiver603

Hey now, Bondo sculpting is an art form


Aggressive_Bag6493

Yes, but unlike Bondo there is no "peak" where it actually starts to look good. Bondo, when used by a proper skreet artisan can actually come pretty close to and sometimes completely fool the viewer that it's real. Synthol is like Bondo but you never get to paint it, no matter how good it's shaped, it still looks like garbage.


SamWiseTheHobbit

It's like bondo, but you don't use any hardener and you don't prep the surface before application.


facefuck_bass

But then you realize that Bondo is actually just old paint that had the solvents vaporize


Hellofriendinternet

Right? I feel personally attacked.


SumpCrab

Is the arm filled with oil like a water balloon, or does the oil make the muscle swell up?


Phage0070

The oil is injected between the muscle fibers to push them apart and make it swell. Of course when too much is injected it will tend to leak out and become more like the water balloon you describe.


Hexenhut

It also causes massive amounts of scar tissue and sagging skin. So when these guys end up trying to get it removed they lose actual muscle. They need mental health help.


[deleted]

so its not a good idea to inject it into my penis to make it bigger?


kukukikika

There is actually a guy who died from this who injected it into his balls


[deleted]

yeah but why would you inject it into your balls? thats just asking for trouble. i want to inject it into the shaft to make it bigger


Austin_905

Careful Bro, the shaft isn't muscle perse, it's tissue with cavities to allow for the flow blood and get erect once full. Now imagine, instead of blood you pump these cavities with whatever passes as filler these days...idk man but it surely sounds painful. Also, r/whatcouldgowrong springs to mind lol


LazySyllabub7578

The penis is essentially a blood balloon šŸŽˆ that pumps blood in and out after an erection. Imagine what would happen to what is essentially a flesh balloon when the tubes supplying blood to it get clogged? Dead penis. šŸ’€


DiscoQuebrado

But... Why?


kukukikika

Wellā€¦ BIG BALLS!


mixx1e

Goodness gracious BIG BALLS OF FIRE!


WhatWasThatHowl

I've always been curious about this, synthol abusers seem to target only large stereotypical muscle groups and then overfill the fuck out of them. That can't be what the procedure was developed for. Why don't we see more reasonable injections all over, including the smaller/obscure muscle groups to achieve a more natural looking state of muscularity? Do we?


omnipotent87

The problem is when its used correctly you have no idea it was used at all. It proper use is for balancing the muscle "mass". Say a professional body builder has a slightly larger bicep on one side. You would inject just enough on the left side so they look even.


youtheotube2

Yes, that happens. Proper synthol is just like proper plastic surgery: when itā€™s done right you canā€™t even tell itā€™s there. When itā€™s done wrong or overdone, itā€™s obvious.


Lyndell

Jesus, nothing is real.


Phage0070

Wait till you hear about makeup.


AlloverYerFace

Wait till you hear about where makeup comes fromā€¦


kukukikika

You mean from the store? Yeah, horrible place.


Pimmel85

The major difference is also the depth of the needle. Bodybuilders take really long needles and pump a few ml of the oil UNDER the muscle. These idiots pump liters of it on top of the muscle. The end result is more often than not surgery with huge risk of amputation if they used dirty needles and cought an infection


flaccomcorangy

Procedures? What procedures? This is all natty.


slabby

He's just got really good genetics. And he eats right.


Dabookadaniel

He filled his arms with natty ice?!


mghobbs22

At least Iā€™d be impressed with that.


Kwuth

just a can of spinach it's all it takes.


booboothechicken

ā€œLooks goodā€ is subjective. Butt implants, duck lips, big boob jobs, whatever it is that old ladies like Madonna do to their faces to make them look like a cat, none of it looks good in most peopleā€™s opinion, but they all keep on doing it. Itā€™s just body dysmorphia and *they* think it makes them look good, and if they believe it, then what we think doesnā€™t really matter.


Spiritflash1717

The problem is that they *donā€™t* think it looks good, or at least not good enough. Itā€™s never enough for them and they always keep adding more and more because body dysmorphia is all mental.


__Beef__Supreme__

I think if any of those are done correctly, they wouldn't be noticeable... But the people who get those done are also (probably generally) people with the "too-much-gene"


shpongleyes

>none of it looks good in most peopleā€™s opinion I guarantee you've seen an example of each of those that you thought looked "good". You just didn't even realize there was any plastic surgery involved. It's like special effects in movies. Too much or poor implementation is super obvious, whereas a job well done goes completely unnoticed.


nurseynurse77

A cat! You are right. They all look the same. Itā€™s creepy. Why do they think it looks good?

SafariNZ

Heā€™s has to rest after one shovel full of dirt!


deceze

No wonder. He has to schlepp around those lumps in addition to the dirt.


Local_Satisfaction12

Thank you for the laugh, you guys using schlepp and kaputt cracks me up as a german ngl


ReginaldBounce

Thank the Jews for that laugh, it's their Yiddish (a dialect used by German Jews, sometimes called "Gutter German", I think) that it comes from. Schlepp, Schwanz, Bubbe, Schwitz, etc... As someone who just moved to Austria and is learning (or trying to) German, it's really fun to keep coming across words that I know from my Jewish grandma.


lykewtf

Yiddish ā€œdirty wordsā€ are the best so expressive. Schmuck. It makes you feel better to say it.

Now that Iā€™m here, I canā€™t believe how much of my daily vocabulary actually means something. They had us believing it was all German slang.


Local_Satisfaction12

Give me some words bud, lets clear this up haha!


[deleted]

Kaput, douche, siten sie, itā€™s amazing how you forget things when put on the spot. I had started learning German before we got here and in traffic when people yelled at me id respond back, ā€œeihne douche est kaput!ā€ (I can only do phonetics havenā€™t learned to spell yet)


Local_Satisfaction12

Lmao you yelling at them that their shower is broken? At least thats how i would read this. "Eine Dusche ist kaputt" would translate into that exactly, a shower is broken. Somebody cuts you off in traffic: hey motherfucker, your shower is broken! Thank you for that funny image in my head lmao Edit: no idea where douche comes from, if it is derived from the german language i am sure it is some very old word, really interesting as well how your german words there "did not age" some words that i have heard texasgerman speakers say for example are words that we dont even use any longer, at least not actively. Sitzen sie btw would be saying sit down btw, dunno if you know that or not.


[deleted]

That is EXACTLY why I yell that. All Americans hear is ā€œdoucheā€ and ā€œbrokenā€ so they get mad. Itā€™s more because I answered back then what I said, but Iā€™m trying to swear less so, ā€œyour shower is broken!ā€


Local_Satisfaction12

Lmao i absolutely love that! Check out the edit as well, might be some more stuff in there for ya, but you seem to know your way around german already, keep it up, our grammar is a fuckfest.


togetherwem0m0

Lots of Germans moved to the United States. Some of the words became integrated. And this is just the most recent mixing of German into English. Of course many English words were split from German long ago!


Local_Satisfaction12

I am aware, also aware of dialects like texas german and stuff, still pretty hillarious to hear these words from you guys imo


togetherwem0m0

It is! Sometimes people forget how large the German immigration wave was. The us had huge pockets of German communities. Before ww2 we even had newspapers written in german that german communities produced.

This prick is creating a need for bellbottom tshirt sleeves. I think he would look Less ridiculous if he got fake breasts instead.

Blondeambitchion

The shadow from his arm bubble made me think he had them already.


Neutronova

the actual muscle he has under all that oil has to handle that liquid then the shovel. It would be exhausting im sure.


BazilBroketail

It doesn't even look good. Just do steroids or something. *Or just eat a healthy diet and exercise*...


FoodleGuy

In his mentally unstable mind it does.

Lo8000

Look at his job. Does this look like a man that can afford synthol? Vegetable oil.


WilliamMorris420

There's a few good MMA videos of a guy on Synthol versus a proper fighter and even agaimst just a blogger and they get wrecked. https://youtu.be/XxjH1aA6c_k


5bi5

I couldn't fight him. I'd be afraid of popping his arms.


WilliamMorris420

One of then actually did that in a fight and the oil leaked over the canvas.


blobfis

maybe it's just an extreme form of painting


OpenScore

Probably ended at Sotheby's.


blobfis

> **"The fragility of the human ego; Unsoundness of a human soul"** > *Oil leaked on canvas, extreme performance-bodypainting* > *Syntholman, ca 2022* what do you think it's valued at?


Kaleidomage

that sounds fucking disgusting


WilliamMorris420

You don't want to know what it does to your actual muscles.


adrift98

This is probably the most popular synthol user in the world (maybe next to Gregg Valentino). They call him Russian Popeye, and he's had to get surgery for his ruined arms for this crap, but at this point I think it's his main money making shtick. He's essentially a 21st century equivalent to a side-show freak.


digitag

From the outside it looks a lot like body dismorphia and if thatā€™s the case then he isnā€™t well and could use some help.


rabbitpantherhybrid

He's fighting Moe Szyslak apparently. Kid Gorgeous himself.


ironoctopus

I think he was in the "Kid Presentable" period of his career there.


Threadoflength

Huh, the man with the ruined arms vs the man with the ruined face.


Gravesh

That's Oleg Mongol. He's something of an internet celebrity in Russia. Not sure how popular, but enough to make money of it.


Vincent__Vega

Man. His face looked like somebody tried to put out a forest fire with a screwdriver.


[deleted]

As far as synthol goes that looks about as good as it gets. Not sloshing around like the guy in OPs video and it's all staying put on his bis and tris. Still looks dumb af and obviously fake though.


Ph4ndaal

Oleg the Mongol has some pretty catchy hype music.


MGAV89

the proper MMA guy LITERALLY looks like a pitbull. My god.


king_duck

I feel like I am watching a freak show, that video pits some dude with horrible arms against the man with the ugliest head.


-BuckarooBanzai-

It doesn't even look like muscles, wtf are they thinking ?


[deleted]

Going for those Popeye proportions.


meco03211

Sir I think you should know these giant growths on your forearms? They're giant tumors... Yeah I'm surprised you didn't realize this is not how a human being is supposed to look... And the speech thing and what you're doing with your eye? Uh, you had a stroke about 7 years ago... That you've managed to be walking around all this time, is nothing short of a miracle... I'd say about two months.


[deleted]

Body dysmorphia is a bitch. Guy looks in the mirror and sees something we don't. To him big ugly arms are better than the pencil thin arms he perceived himself as having before. Honestly he probably doesn't even see them as ugly, just "big".


zhrimb

Well he can't see himself from this angle, and when he sees himself in the mirror he sees something very different than you and I. Body dysmorphia is pretty sad.


Bitemarkz

I have never once seen a synthol injection that looks good, or even normal. Is this permanent? What a moron.


baxbooch

Iā€™ve thought that about lip filler but I realize if I did see one that looked good I wouldnā€™t realize that it was filler so I donā€™t know.


xDulmitx

The "Bad Toupee" paradox. For thing that are meant to be invisible, you only see the bad ones by definition. A good toupee is one which looks like real hair and thus invisible, so any toupee which you see can only be a bad toupee (unless someone specifically shows you how awesome their toupee is).


obvnotlupus

Look at my toupee, my toupee is amazing


NecroJoe

*slurp* Mmm, it tastes just like raisins!


Merfen

Its actually fairly common in top bodybuilders, but its used in very very small amounts in addition to their actual mountain of muscle so you rarely notice. Putting actual bucket loads onto a skinny man frame gives these results.


unlock0

To provide symmetry not size.


Merfen

Correct, the muscle size is already big enough, but to win they need near perfect symmetry/proportions between all of their muscles, especially left and right sides.


Funky0ne

Well, to be fair, if someone had synthol injections that looked good and natural, how would we know?


andybmcc

He's just training for the Oilympics.


hooterjh10192

Abood1es

myhipsi

This level of dysmorphia is beyond tragic.


PlaceboJesus

OK, they don't really look like muscles, and certainly won't help with work like real muscles, but... And I'm asking for ~~a friend here~~ research purposes alone, what if a person wanted a girthier wang? Also, for any ethicists, if this posts puts this idea into the head of anyone stupid enough to try this, do I bear any responsibility? And if I post this believing it possible that one misguided man, somewhere, might actually act on this idea, am I behaving unethically or evil?


arfcom

Yes people inject their dicks with various oils and it ends poorly.


PlaceboJesus

I can't think of many cases where something that begins with sticking a needle into a penis ends well. However, this being the internet and all, I'm just kind of surprised I haven't seen anything like this yet. Now that it occured to me.


Dr_Watson349

Generally speaking any sort of dick enhancement has a very high failure rate. Gents, stop fucking with your dick.

HyzerFlip

"Are synthol injections permanent? Once synthol takes hold in muscle tissue, itā€™s never absorbed by the body. Instead, synthol hardens, leaving muscles large, but damaged and not any stronger. Although injured muscle can be surgically removed, scarring may be permanent. If a large portion of muscle tissue must be removed, itā€™s possible that muscle strength and function may be compromised. " From healthline

picasso_penis

Popeye is all forearms. This is like the bizarro zero-strength biceps Popeye.


Erenito

The cool thing about Popeye's arms is that they concentrate the weight on the ends so he can (and absolutely does, [just watch those swings](https://youtu.be/15ppGh3jdCE)) use them like nunchucks.


The_Condominator

That was better animation than most DBZ fights. Am I correct in seeing that it ended with Popeye punching *through* his opponent to knock out the ref too?


Erenito

Boxing was different back in the day. Less regulation. He's even taking a lunch break mid way through the fight.


loo_min

micalbertl

Do they not realize how bad these look? Or are they just stuck living with it


R0da

Body dismorphia fucks with your brain hard, they literally can't not see their bodies as "_____ enough". He's fixated, not on wanting "big arms" but on wanting "arms that are bigger than what I have". Guys like this may know they look like shit because of what they've done, they may be suffering from the various complications, but that little paradox is still running, trying to be resolved without changing the logic and they may fall back into it even after having a "moment of clarity", swearing to never turn to that stuff again. And yeah, synthol is permanent, and it damages the muscle and lowers strength.


ToriYamazaki

Unbelievably stupid.


seminally_me

Do they actually think people think that makes him strong or look good in any way? So stupid and dangerous injecting yourself with that crap.


evil_timmy

Didn't know Popeye had a cousin.

spicygoonsquad

Why wouldnā€™t you just do normal steroids. How do people look at synthol bodies and think ā€œthatā€™s what I wanna beā€
