Meme lore
What is the James Magnussen Before vs. After (Enhanced Games) meme?
James Magnussen Before vs. After is a wide split of Australian sprinter James “The Missile” Magnussen. Left is the 2013 FINA Worlds medal portrait — lean, teal briefs, two medals on a Barcelona ribbon. Right is the 2025 Enhanced Games protocol body: black cap and goggles, lats blowing out a tech suit after he said he would “juice to the gills.” Used for natural peak vs the stack, “I got too big,” and any glow-up that wrecked the original job.
