...speed at which humans aren't built to go isn't easy, and several title holders have crumbled under the pressure. In 1988, Jamaican-born Canadian Ben Johnson clocked a scorching 9.79 at the Seoul Olympics, but quickly had his record expunged after testing positive for the anabolic steroid stanozolol. Johnson wasn't the last World's Fastest Human to succumb to the lure of steroids. American sprinter Justin Gatlin, who ran a 9.77 at a meet in Qatar, is serving a four-year suspension for doping, and Tim Montgomery - who called the title the "top of the food chain...
...steroid that makes an athlete stronger without inflating him like Bluto. Who knew? It's called Primobolan, and Yankees superstar Alex Rodriguez has admitted using it in 2003 as a Texas Ranger. Given recent scandals, fans may soon need a chemistry degree to read the sports pages.

"He was in a state of shock," said Letheren. "He still did not comprehend the situation." A few hours...
...Astaphan, a general practitioner on the Caribbean island of St. Kitts. Astaphan has been associated with Johnson for more than five years, and the sprinter spent several weeks this summer on St. Kitts, purportedly being treated for a hamstring pull. Astaphan denied the reports that he gave Johnson stanozolol but did say he gave him therapeutic corticosteroids and subsequently notified the I.O.C. The doctor also became the subject of intense scrutiny. York University officials, according to a Toronto newspaper, were looking into claims that athletes training at the university had bought steroids from Astaphan.
