If you thought the story surrounding Oscar Pistorius couldn't get more weird or confusing, prepare yourself. According to The National Post/AP, a substance was found in his bedroom following an investigation into the shooting death of his girlfriend Reeva Steenkamp. Tests revealed that the item in question was Testis compositum, a product that features "both oral and injectable forms as a testosterone booster and a sexual enhancer."

Pistorius' lawyers are claiming that the substance was being used to "aid in muscle recovery." Are you ready for the weirdest part? The product contains "23 ingredients, including pig testicles, pig heart, pig embryo and pig adrenal gland, cortisone, ginseng and other botanicals." Um, what? But, no need to worry on Blade Runner's part because the World Anti-Doping Agency knew about the substance and it wasn't banned.    

Apparently someone's about that all pig everything.
