Ken patera is incredible!!!  That second pix, although still very impressive is from the late 80's after he got out of jail, I believe.  Late 70's was his biggest.  The guy also was a great heel!!!!  Sold everything like curt henning did...and that shouldn't be a surprise because the henning family is from the AWA territory that Ken started at.  Just the way he moved, talked, you knew he was a tough sob, legit.

Agreed witht the initial point.... some people just dont have proper structure to lift heavy and gain tons of mass

In his day, Patera was the best American Olympic lifter.  He was the first to clean and jerk 500 lbs if my memory serves.  Ken was also a WSM competitor.  He was a man with a lot of brute strength.

When he competed, they still had the military press which was stricter than the clean & jerk..  Military pressed 517 lbs in the '72 Pan Am games--Gold medal.  Bronze medal in the '72 Olympics.  3rd place in the first WSM in '77 with a bad back--Ferrigno was 4th.
