20 years ago roids would kill you?

Back when I first got in powerlifting in 83, every time I picked up a magazine I would read about the horrible side effects of roids. They would go on and on about how roids would cause heart problems, even assuring you that if you took roids that you would have a heart attack, or that you would most certainly get cancer. They would go on to say that a drug free lifter would have a longer and healther life. Now twenty some years later, guys that where using in the 80's, and even back in the 70's are still going strong, as healthy as a horse. For example, take a normal 50 year old man that has never lifted, never done roids, and compare him to some of powerliftings master lifters that have done roids for 20, to 30 years, that are the same age, most of the time there will be no comparason, the powerlifter will be in far better shape. All I am asking is that if roids are so bad for you, and will kill you, then how come I see guys all the time that have used for 20 or 30 years that are in thier 50's or 60's, and in better shape than most guys half thier age. Also 20 years later I have known just as many drug free guys if not more to have health problems, or even die as I have the users from the 70's and 80's. No I am not encouraging anybody to do roids, just asking a question.
