Ben, there really isnt much of a question here.
The abilities of naturals are far below that of steroid users. Take 100% RAW for instance, one of the better drug tested feds around. In the 220lb class none of the lifters have gone far above 600 in the squat, 400 in the bench and some of them are scraping 700 in the deadlift - but the drugged russian teams are pulling 800 squats, 600 benches and 800 deadlifts totally raw. For bodybuilding the difference isnt just mass, but the level of bodyfat they need to maintain it. If a natural wants any decent size (90-100kg) then they cant go below 8% bodyfat. Most natural bodybuilders end up looking like rugby players than bodybuilders. Theres nothing wrong with these achievements - a person at 6', 100kg and 10% bodyfat with a 250/180/300 total is a ****ing BEAST, the kind that steps into a gym and will leave impressions on its members forever. But when it comes to the 110kg+ guys shredded on a magazine cover, take it with a grain of salt.

It doesn't.
A more appropriate/accurate question would be: Is it possible for an 18 year old to look like this without the use of steroids? Judging by the mixed results in the poll thus far, I will go by the more experienced/big lifters opinions. Detailed post Oli, judging by your last paragraph you think he isn't using?

judging by my last paragraph he is. I dont think a 16 year old has the muscular maturity to put on that kind of size. also, that sorta size and bodyfat would require AT LEAST 3 solid years training, which I doubt hes had.
