man there is an old name i haven't heard in forever, didn't he have his own board an all? I remember he was popular for his kits and his Secret solution lol, which weren't very secretive lol.
And a lot of guys from back then in the beginning of the Internet era, who owned their own piece of the internet and became popular and some what wealthy have mostly all either been to jail or died from drug overdoses (recreational) not all but a lot of guys I know from the late 90's and early 2,000's . When the internet took off in mid 2000's everyone made a shit ton of money who was already established from the late 90's and i think animal was one of those guys and he made dough hand over fist, though i didn't know him, nor have i heard he was into recreational shit and busted as stated above, I am just saying a lot of guys made more money than they knew what to do with and got into trouble with it!
Sad, he had a great name and following!
