    Dropped on Netflix this morning and I watched it and really enjoyed it a must watch I think.

    An amazing insight into the world of doping in sports.
    When Bryan Fogel sets out to uncover the truth about doping in sports, a chance meeting with a Russian scientist transforms his story from a personal experiment into a geopolitical thriller involving dirty urine, unexplained death and Olympic Gold-exposing the biggest scandal in sports history.

    Just finished watching this an hour ago.

    It's good, but it's a shame that we'll never get to see the other sides - the other countries that are cheating. The doc is just the Russian involvement.

    Yeah this is great. What a trip. I almost felt like I was on something the guy was taking. The analysis of the Russian cheating at Sochi was fascinating, and hugely depressing at the same time.

    Thought this was superb documentary.

    I only wish they would of gone into more detail about letting Russian athletes take park in Brazil but not under the Russian flag. That really pissed me off and still still does to this day.

    Should of been banned full stop
