Where and when was the Prowse pic taken?
probably early 1960's dave was a physique competetor before he switched to olympic style lifting . he was considered one of the top 20 or so bbers in england but could never win contest against smaller men. he stood 6 ft 7 and weighed usually around 275lbs. dave always thought the judges scored him down because he had a pair of ugly feet if you can believe that.
