Brazilian bodybuilder ‘Hulk’ and TikTok star, Valdir Segato who injected himself with life-threatening oil to create 23-inch biceps, has died on his 55th birthday in Ribeirao Preto.

Valdir Segato from Sao Paulo, who was inspired by the physiques of Arnold Schwarzenegger and fictional characters like The Hulk, used synthol injections for years to produce hulking biceps, pectorals, and back muscles despite knowing the risks of stroke and infections.

The former construction worker promised to get even bigger.

Speaking in 2016, he 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.’

He proudly posted images and videos to social media, calling himself ‘Valdir Synthol’ on Instagram.

It was around 6 am, more or less. He came crawling through the back house and came to the front. Then he knocked on my mother’s window, knocked, knocked, then she woke up and he said ‘help me, help me because I’m dying,” Moisés said, according to Brazil’s Globo news publication.

He was taken to the North Emergency Care Unit (UPA) – a medical facility in the city but to no avail.

‘They put him in the car and then the neighbour went to the UPA. He arrived at the UPA, he fell at the reception, having a heart attack. I think he had a heart attack’, Moisés told the news website.

Moisés’ brother, Jadson da Conceição, told Globo it wasn’t the first time Segato had to be rushed to hospital, and had previously complained of shortness of breath. The first time, he said, they were able to get him to the hospital on time. This time, he said, there was no saving him.
