Dallas McCarver, Professional Bodybuilder, Dies from Choking
Dallas McCarver, a world famous bodybuilder who rose to national prominence in 2011, tragically died this week after choking on food at his Florida home.
He was 26 years old.
Standing at 6’1” tall and weighing close to 300 pounds, McCarver finished first in the NPC Hub City Fitness Quest Junior Heavyweight category six years ago.
A member of the International Federation of Bodybuilding and Fitness, McCarver was known as “Big Country” and had over 472,000 Instagram followers at the time of his passing.
According to McCarver’s girlfriend, WWE Superstar Dana Brooke, the bodybuilder was found unconscious Monday night by a friend at his home shortly after they spoke on the phone.
Brooke tells TMZ that McCarver told her he was about to make some dinner and that the final thing he said to her was:
“I love you. Goodbye.”
Brooke explains to the celebrity gossip site that McCarver died after choking on food… that there does not appear to be signs of foul play… and that there’s no indication McCarver was trying to harm himself.
He was in the gym working out just a few hours before the incident took place.
“We are shocked and saddened by this and pass our immediate thoughts and condolences to Dallas McCarver’s family and loved ones,” Tweeted RXMuscle.com in response to the sad news.
Just last year, McCarver placed eighth in the 2016 Mr. Olympia competition.
He was considered one of the sport’s brightest and youngest stars.
In March of this year, McCarver collapsed on stage at the 2017 Arnold Classic Australia, but there were no signs afterward of any long-term or significant health problems.
We don’t believe this fall played any role in his death.
We send our condolences to the family members, friends and loved ones of Dallas McCarver and we’ll update this story with more news at it breaks.
May he rest in peace.

Nathan Griffith: Arrested For CHOKING Jessica Henry!
Earlier today it was revealed that Nathan Griffith was arrested on August 21st for aggravated assault and burglary.
Now, more details have surfaced as Radar Online has obtained a report from the Myrtle Beach Police Department.
Griffith’s ex-girlfriend, Jessica Henry called the police at 4:30 a.m. on Sunday claiming that Griffith had attacked her.
According to the police report, Henry was asleep when Griffith entered her bedroom.
“Upon arrival, the victim said she was asleep in her bed when the offender came in her home and jumped on top of her and pinned her down and started to yell at her saying ‘be with me!’ and yelling ‘look who is trying!’
“She [Henry] said the offender then started to choke her. She said well she was being choked, she started to [sic] gagging and was in extreme pain.”
Henry told police that Jenelle Evans’ ex “choked her until the point where she could not breathe.”
Henry explained that Griffith eventually let out and she was able to calm him down. However, Griffith left before police arrived.
“The victim said the door must have been unlocked, but the offender was not invited over.
“The victim said that they have lived together before in the past for about two months at the incident location. The offender does not live there and gave his key up a month prior to the incident.”
Though there were no marks on Henry’s neck, photos were taken to be part of the file.
Griffith has no priors for domestic abuse. He was, however, arrested for drunk and disorderly conduct in June.
Last month it was reported that Griffith and Henry had broken up after more than a year of dating.
A few days prior to his arrest, Griffith posted this to his Facebook wall:
“If there was anytime that you were there and I didn’t hear your voice because I was stubborn, I’m sorry but now I’m on my knees asking you to be strong when I can’t, to help me survive just one more day, and to let me hear your voice of justice.”

Eliot Spitzer Accused of Choking Girlfriend in NYC
Eliot Spitzer is once again in trouble with the law.
The ex-New York governor has been accused of assault by a 25-year-old unidentified woman, who alleges that the disgraced politician is her boyfriend and that he violently placed his hands around her neck on Saturday, February 13.
The supposed incident took place at the Plaza Hotel in Manhattan.
As we type this, the 56-year old Democrat has not been charged with any crimes.
“The victim has indicated that the subject is Eliot Spitzer,” the New York Police Department told CNN in a statement. “Through an ongoing investigation, we are attempting to further establish the identity of the subject and the nature of the incident.”
Through a spokesperson, meanwhile, Spitzer denies all charges, saying simply:
“There is no truth to the allegation.”
An insider also tells CNN that the woman – who claims she and Spitzer were engaged in a verbal argument that turned physical – was taken to the hospital with self-inflicted cuts to her wrists.
This same insider says Spitzer was on hand at the hospital, donning a hat to hide his face.
Spitzer and his ex-wife, Silda Wall, divorced in 2014, six years after Spitzer resigner his gubernatorial position following his involvement in a prostitution scandal.
