Berry DeMey update
« on: February 07, 2009, 09:43:34 AM »
My friend Berry has asked me to spread the word on his new website http://www.berrydemey.com/

Berry has been off the radar as far as bodybuilding is concerned and his website is probably not what you think.  His website features his latest endeavor which is professional photography. 

A few excerpts from his bio on the site:
Quote
In 2004, Berry de Mey graduated from the premier photographic academy of the Netherlands. Since then he has been working as a professional photographer and has produced a wealth of outstanding photographic images.

De Mey ended his bodybuilding career in 1994 and began to focus all of his attention on the photography that he loved so much. Today, he and his wife and daughter, live in his hometown of Nieuwerkerk aan den IJssel, where he continues to produce some of finest photographic images.
There are samples of his photographic work on the site as well as some pics of Berry from his bodybuilding days in the webshop.  And if you are like me and are curious as to what he looks like nowadays here is a current shot.



Please visit Berry's site to check out his latest work and feel free to give a shout out to Berry here as I will point him in the direction of this thread.  I don't think he will post but you never know...

nothing more to add to that.

I have hardly any interest in current pro bbing, only to see how low it has sunk. Its good to see DeMey is doing well  :)

Funny thing is he doesn't look too far off from where he was when he was on drugs

I met DeMey at one of the Olympias in the late 80's. He was extremely nice and personable to everyone who talked to him. No arrogance or bad attitude as with guys like Flex Wheeler in his day.

I saw him when he was 19 when he guest posed in the UK,he was promoted as the next Arnold,he was massive at that age.Then i saw him a year later in London when he won the world couples champs with Erica Mes,he had probably a better reception than any of the Olympia competitors onstage that day.
Here he is in 83 and 85.

Agreed - one of the few who seem to have successfully put bodybuilding firmly behind them and moved onto pastures new. Props.

Class guy, from physique to presentation to attitude. We could use a few Berry De Mey's in the sport today.

Ok.
White....Good in cold weather but hot weather or sunny weather not. Easily get skin cancer. All look way older than yellows.
Black....They cant live in cold place. They get sick in the cold place easily.

Yellow....Hot humid place,OK. Extremely cold place,OK(Look at Eskimo, they are yellows.)

Yeah. But the middle height class of WABBA is international.

I dont want to be Berry.
I wanted similar conditioned and strem line physic.

In addition, in here Spain, All the people are fliped that i look way more younger than them.
People say that I am late 20s. But sorry, I am almost 40. We yellow look younger than white.
