Does anyone know if this monster of a man is still alive and what he is doing?

Yes, by all accounts he is still alive, but wants nothing to do with the strength sports. He refuses to discuss his past life in them with anyone, under any curcumstances.

:(.

heard some crazy stories about him, 62 inches around the shoulders, shoulder presses with a pair of 200's, one arm leaning presses with a specially made 300 pound db, lateral raises with 150's, curls with 150's, supposedly ripped the steering wheel out of some guys car. etc.

BB Thanks! I am glad he is alive....it a shame he won't talk , as I am sure he has his reasons and  we will just have to accept that and leave him alone.

from what i've read that's the way he was in the 50's and 60's when he was at his peak size and strength as well, supposedly covered up that huge body in big long sleeved shirts and pants even in summer, seemed like a pretty private person, from the pics i've seen in MILO he was fuccking huge.

 A friend of mine has a personal photo of him at Muscle Beach. His back is to the camera as Paul Anderson is benching.
He is just for lack of a better word HUGE. even in his street clothes.  I don't know how he could fit through door ways.
