Oh, there is....at least in Nairobi (as of 2006 when I was there).  ;D

Here is Oketch in 3rd to Rob Terry and some other guy at the 2018 Natural Mr. Olympia:

From 1:33:50 and onward (Oketch is in the yellow, number 416)



Bodybuilders from the 1930s and 40s blow those guys away.

Not really! Notice Ross isn't super ripped. If Oketch and Terry were able to compete at Ross' bodyfat, they'd look like MONSTERS and make Ross look like a smurf.

Yes.

Oketch is 6'4"; so is Terry. Ross was 5'10".

Ross was 210 max (and that's by 60s standards). Oketch and Terry, at the body fat level of Ross, would be FAR larger.

Check how much bigger Oketch looks when he's doing strongman.

If I didn't know any better, I'd say you may be right.

Slight correction:

Oketch won the Mr. Kenya Heavyweight title. He placed 2nd overall (questionable call to me).

He's also a Mr. Kenya winner.

Was he one of those kids Sally Struthers fed paste to?

Judging from his physique, I'd say not.

2017 Kenya Heavyweight Champion



Here's a clip after he won the 2021 Qatar's Strongest Man title.

Having them jump over a bouncing barbell during the deadlift event was pretty stupid.

He's definitely strong as hell.

But still not natural. ;D

I'm not sure if that was a requirement or if the guys just do that to save time, although tripping over the bar and busting your head open might not be worth an extra half-second off.
