Who was Valdir Segato? Brazilian Hulk known for injecting muscles with Synthol dies aged 55

On his 55th birthday, Brazilian bodybuilder Valdir Segato passed away. He was well-known for using Synthol injections for a long time to bulk up. The TikTok celebrity was reportedly declared dead on July 26 in the southeast Brazilian city of Ribeiro Preto, according to the Universo Online (UOL) web page.

According to UOL reports, Segato stated that he became ill at home and was transported there by the Brazilian Mobile Emergency Care Service of UPA Nelson Mandela – UPA Norte (SAMU).

It is impossible to say whether Valdir Segato’s usage of Synthol injections into his muscles led to any consequences because no reports have identified the cause of his death. Segato’s body has already been interred in the Bom Pastor Cemetery, therefore the information may not be verified, according to UOL News. No autopsy was presumably performed because the burial allegedly took place a day after his passing.

Valdir Segato was a construction worker

Valdir Segato, a native of Brazil, was also known as “Valdir Synthol” on social media because he frequently used Synthol oil to acquire an extremely bulky appearance. Segato, a construction worker who apparently came from Sao Paulo, was most likely a resident of Ribeiro Preto.

Segato gained notoriety in late October 2016 as a result of a DailyMail UK profile. The bodybuilding enthusiast said in their interview:

He planned to add four inches to his biceps, which were 23 inches at the time, by receiving Synthol oil injections. Valdir Segato earlier admitted that The Incredible Hulk and Arnold Schwarzenegger served as some of his inspirations. Segato explained his past and how he came to use Synthol injections in an interview with DailyMail UK. He admitted that he had formerly been a drug addict. Said Segato:

Valdir Segato joined gyms while going through addiction treatment, but he wasn’t happy with the muscle he was building up. Then, to get that really bulky look, he dove into Synthol oil injections in his biceps, pectorals, and behind. Segato maintained receiving Synthol injections up until the time of his death, despite the significant danger they posed for stroke, infection, and amputation. It should be noted, nevertheless, that the bulky appearance caused by Synthol injections was just temporary and did not truly encourage muscular growth.

In 2016, doctors reportedly warned him against abusing Synthol oil and warned him of the hazards, including “amputation, or at the very least nerve damage and muscular deformation,” if he persisted with the practice. Valdir Segato, however, decided to keep administering the dangerous doses.

What is Synthol oil, and what risks does it pose to bodybuilding enthusiasts like Valdir Segato?

The ingredients in this oil are frequently used by bodybuilders to abuse the substance to produce a bulky appearance. For instance, the anesthetic lidocaine reduces the discomfort brought on by the injection of Synthol into the muscles. The alcohol concentration appears to aid in cleaning the region and preventing infections in the meantime. They could still happen, though, as drinking alcohol isn’t always a surefire strategy to prevent infections.

As MCT is injected deeply into the muscles, it begins to expand, giving the appearance of being bulky. Synthol injections can result in serious illnesses that have a long-term negative impact on the body. It may result in the muscles taking on an odd form. It may also result in muscle fibrosis, which could ultimately result in amputation.

Segato had over 1.7 million TikTok followers at the time of his death.
