疯狂！ 巴西一男子为健身竟然注射合成醇
由于忍痛注射合成醇，猛男瓦尔迪尔·塞加托的巨型肱二头肌竟然达到了惊人的23英寸。
The 48-year-old's arms have doubled in size from 12 inches after he began injecting the potentially lethal oil substance five years ago and now he wants to get even bigger.
在五年前，这位48岁的男子就开始注射可能致命的燃油物质，随后他的双臂大小从12英寸增大了两倍。
Segato, from Sao Paulo, Brazil, is inspired by the physiques（n. 体格） of Arnold Schwarzenegger and fictional characters like The Hulk and is proud to be known locally as "the monster" in the street.
来自巴西圣保罗的塞加托受到了阿诺德·施瓦辛格和绿巨人这样的虚构人物的鼓舞，并很自豪能够被当地人称为街道“怪物”。
Segato, a construction worker, said: "They call me Hulk, Schwarzenegger and He-Man all the time and I like that. I"ve doubled my biceps but I still want to be bigger."
塞加托是一名建筑工人，他表示：“他们一直管我叫绿巨人、施瓦辛格和希曼，我很喜欢。我的肱二头肌已经增大了两倍，但我还想变得更加强壮。”
As a youth he was an emaciated（adj. 瘦弱的；憔悴的） skinny drug addict and lost so much weight he was known as"Skinny Dog".
年轻时，他是一名瘦弱的吸毒者，体重减轻了很多，并被称为“小瘦子”。
He said: "I got involved with drugs and I started losing weight because you don't eat, you lead a wrong life."
他表示：“我曾吸食毒品，因为不吃饭，也过着不健康的生活，所以体重开始下降，。
”Segato quit drugs and joined a gym but he wanted more extreme effects than he could achieve from exercise alone.
塞加托戒毒之后加入了健身房，但是他想要一种比锻炼更为极端的效果。
He was offered synthol by someone in the gym and soon became hooked（吸毒成瘾的；入迷的） on the muscle-enhancing substance, which he injects into his biceps, chest and shoulders.
在健身房，某个人给了他合成醇，很快他就对这一增长肌肉的物质上瘾了，他将其注入了肱二头肌、胸部和肩膀。
"The Hulk" has been warned he faces serious problems - including amputation（n. 截肢） - if he continues to use synthol.
这位“绿巨人”已被警告将会面临包括截肢在内的严重问题--如果他继续使用合成醇的话。
Segato said: "The doctors tell me to stop it, the advice they give me is to stop using. But it's my decision to use it because I want to, because I like to."
塞加托对此则表示：“医生们告诉我停止注射，他们给我的建议是停止使用。但是我的决定是继续使用它，因为我想要这样，我喜欢这样。”
