if there was ever a strongman who i would believe was drug free it would be him, 5'9" 385 pounds, probably born to lift big weights.

John Grimek claims he witnessed Paul Anderson squat 900 pounds for 10 reps.  His thighs measured 36 inches and when he "dieted down" to 330 his thighs had cuts.  :o

I read allot of articles on Paul and his life story
He is one of the guys who stand out as a genuine guy not into self promotion or deception, I would put my money on drug free.

Almost impossible to be drug free and hit a 900 squat IMO.



Never seen anyone whos natural hit that high. And Im talking NATURAL not "I juiced for a few year but now Im 'natural.'"

Couldn't find a vid but he did squat 1008 in the IPF around '94 or so at 23 yrs of age (here is pic) ...he then switched to Olympic lifting and was a 2x olympian...at 5'9" 350 lbs he could dunk a basketball and had a 40" vertical

The IPF is not drug tested...

Hitting such a number by 23 is not a natural act.



Nevertheless it is incredible!
