The incredible twisting back shot of Ali Malla.....I must say...is quite impressive. One of the best twisted back shots ever. But so is Ali's recently dyed Muslim beard. Many die hard muslims dye their beard during a certain time of year. Ali now lives in Arab Emirates I believe. Ali was kinda nutty in a good way. I knew him for a good number of years...through some tough years for him. But he was a sincerely good guy. Always willing to talk about life and or bodybuilding. Solid work ethic...old school dieting and training techniques and minimal contest only cycles. Hell...even Arnold used an off steroid Ali Malla as the workout model for most pages of his original Encyclopedia.
