Looks like Ric Drasin is in the hospital with a lung infection and congestive heart failure:

I'd always hoped he could get Arnold on his show at least once.

I was thinking the same thing when I look at his skin.  Ric took roids for years.  I know he's on TRT too.  Not good for the heart over the long term.  Good guy though, I hope he pulls through.

Add 3 hearts surgeries and hips replacement and he's in Arnold's survivors territory.

Seems like a good dude. He was one of the few that made some money from bodybuild. Still, he never looked good with the steroids he took. Should've stayed natty and wore sun block and would probably have lived to 100. He's a strong dude though I think he will beat this for awhile.

Ric's build was never anything special but he did stay in great shape through the 80s, which put him in his mid-late 40s.

Anyway, he rocked a '70s porn stache like few could
