Remembering Arlindo de Souza: The Bodybuilder Known for Extreme Injections

Arlindo de Souza, a bodybuilder from Brazil known for his extreme appearance achieved by injecting mineral oil and alcohol into his arms, has passed away at the age of 55 in Recife, Brazil. He had been hospitalized since December due to complications related to renal failure, with one kidney failing first followed by the other around Christmas. Despite efforts to treat him, including haemodialysis, he ultimately succumbed to multiple organ failure. Arlindo gained fame in the 2000s for his exaggerated muscular physique, with his biceps reportedly measuring 73 centimeters in circumference. The official cause of death is yet to be confirmed, but doctors suspect it was due to multiple organ failure. Rest in peace, Arlindo de Souza.
