Brett Mycles aka Bob Sager - It's Been 5 Years
This week, he will have been gone 5 years.
IN 2007 we did a story about Brett on our New Gay Travel Guide. To this day, it is one our top Googled postings. And his step-father, allegedly, left comments on our site, about the circumstances surrounding his death, which happened in Chicago.
But to back up a bit,
He was born in Houston, Texas. He moved to Ohio and resided in the Los Angeles area. At age 22, while in Ohio, he entered an Arnold Classic bodybuilding contest where he was spotted by photographer, Irvin Gelb.
He became a successful muscle and fitness model, frequently appearing in such widely-read publications as Muscle & Fitness, Men's Fitness (both founded by bodybuilding impresario, Joe Weider) & Men's Workout, amongst others, as well as becoming a featured model for the International Male clothing catalog.
Adult film career
As "Brett Mycles", he gained fame as an adult film actor, achieving the rarely attained feat of maintaining successful careers in both the mainstream fitness and adult film industries simultaneously. He starred in several adult films, mostly for Studio2000, primarily in solo and fantasy scenes, and posed nude in several adult magazines. He worked in both same-sex and opposite-sex adult films. He also made regular appearances on a webcam site for paying fans. In a 2005 interview, he stated that he'd recently married his high school sweetheart, whom he first met when he was 19 and she was 17.
VIDEO TRIBUTE ON ROD SAGER'S LIFE
Weeks beforehand, family and friends report that he complained of irregular heart beats and said that his family had a history of heart problems. -
People have alleged that his use, common among bodybuilders, of steroids and "fat-burner"
supplements, which sharply increase heart rates, may have increased his risk of heart failure. His step-dad seems to believe this is true.
Such a shame when someone so young becomes so consumed with body image (forget about the porn aspect) that they will do anything to be "perfect".
Hopefully some learned from his error of perfection and the possible deadly consequence.
