Before Clavicular, before Androgenic, before the Tate brothers, before bonesmashing and frame-mogging and the manosphere and looksmaxxing entered the online lexicon, there was Tony Huge.A 44-year-old former model turned lawyer turned bodybuilder turned supplement impresario, Huge fled the United States for Thailand to escape legal pressure on his company from the Food and Drug Administration and to build out a \u201charem\u201d of young, nubile Thai women. With his bulky frame, his sex-and-drugs-fueled lifestyle, and his motto \u201ca day natty [natural] is a day wasted,\u201d Huge became an icon for what was then the fledgling biohacking community. He amassed a huge following of disaffected, lonely young men, some of whom moved to Thailand to live with him. Then, some of them started dying.Huge is one of the main focuses of Get Huge: Looksmaxxing to Death, a bone-chilling documentary series hitting Hulu on November 10. Directed by Stacey Lee and executive-produced by the journalist Jennings Brown, Get Huge kicks off with the untimely death of \u201cLeo and Longevity,\u201d aka Laith Abdallah Algaz, a biohacker and penis enlargement influencer who was found deceased in Huge\u2019s home in January 2023.What follows, however, is not a typical true-crime documentary. It\u2019s a dizzying investigation into the hedonistic, self-destructive, and often deadly world of self-optimization, in which dudes inject themselves with pig\u2019s brains and liquified gold, alliances shift at the drop of a hat, and you\u2019re only as good as your last high-performing Instagram Reel. (A warning, spoilers for Get Huge follow.)Since 2023, Huge has opened up his Pattaya, Thailand, home to the Get Huge team, offering \u201cfull transparency\u201d into what Lee refers to as \u201cthis 24\/7 performance of being a man.\u201d\u201cIt was, \u2018Here\u2019s my harem, here\u2019s my other men that I\u2019m leading, here\u2019s my muscles, here\u2019s my drugs,\u2019\u201d she says. But as her crew got further and further into the filmmaking process, it became clear that what was going on behind the scenes\u2014not just the turmoil within Huge\u2019s inner circle but also the hangers-on dropping like flies around him\u2014was far more interesting.\u201cTherein lies the problem for the young kid watching at home who is watching this as a blueprint for their life. They can’t discern what’s real and what’s not,\u201d Lee says. \u201cEven I was having trouble discerning what was real and what\u2019s not.\u201d
