Hack Live: On Body Obsession

Australians are image obsessed. Whether it's sharing an Instagram about their latest exercise feat or spending countless hours at the gym, many young Australians are working towards the perfect body. For many that's positive but for some it goes too far. It takes over their life and endangers the very body they're honing to perfection. This can lead to eating disorders and steroid abuse. On the flipside, Australians are among the fattest people on Earth with seven out of ten males either overweight or obese and women not far behind. How does body obsession affect a nation that is increasingly either too buff or too big? triple j's Hack host Tom Tilley moderates a live television event and social media experience to find out whether Australians are too obsessed with their bodies.
