The Enhanced Games, touted as the 'next frontier of human performance,' has sparked controversy as a journalist's request for media credentials was denied. The event allows athletes to use performance-enhancing drugs, offering substantial financial rewards, including $250,000 (£185,000) for winning and $1 million (£740,000) for breaking world records. Critics question the safety of these substances, with experts warning that claims of their safety under medical supervision are misleading. Legal concerns arise from past cases, such as a lawsuit by former East German athletes against a pharmaceutical company for infertility and health issues caused by steroids. The integrity of the competition is further questioned, particularly regarding drug testing protocols and the use of banned supersuits that enhance performance. The Enhanced Games organizers suggest a future akin to Formula One for the biotech industry, raising alarms about the commercialization of sports and its effects on young athletes. As the event approaches, the implications for traditional sports and athlete health remain a pressing concern.
