Sadly as we all know, bodybuilding takes a big tool on athletes body when it comes to professional level. But first let's talk about the father. Joe Weider was the co-founder of IFBB (International Federation of Bdybuilders) and father of bodybuilding worldwide. He made bodybuilding and fitness industry what it is today. Thanks to him there is Mr. Olympia and several other competitions related to it.
At the age of 93 on March 23. 2013 Joe Weider died of heart failure in his home. It's a terrible moment for all bodybuilders as well as fans because it's like a death of Jesus in Catholic Religion
Here is a small memorial for him:

But that's not all! 3 days before Joe Weider, a bodybuilding legend and my personal favourite bodybuilder Nasser El Sonbaty - who was also my idol, died from now unknown reasons at age of 48. That's another terrible lose, he was known as a bodybuilder who had over 300lbs with 6 pack abs stiscking out of his belly. Also he was known for his famous glasses he always had, even on guest posing. They were round and they looked funny for the times on such a big guy :D Still I made another memorial for him too, loved him as a fan and always will! He was also known for internet name GH15, on a forum where he talked openly about drug abuse in bodybuilding and what people take to get on stages like him. In a few words - the dark side of bodybuilding and fitness.
RIP both bodybuilding icons,you deserved it!
