I was talking about wearing a brown (tan) leather jacket with a light blue business shirt.

I see what you did there
Arnold's new pic :
And his pointing at a 42 year old pic
Btw Flex magazine is not aware that there's another magazine around with that same pic on cover?
WoooSSSSHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH HHHH

Arnie looks good for 86, but he should just let his hair be its natural grey.

And he owes it ALL to D-bol.
Without the roids, he would never have the success he enjoys today. Probably would've became a business man... maybe a real estate mogul.

I think his mental drive is unique though...
Don't forget he came from Europe as the youngest Mr.Europe but
first contest? lost to Frank Zane
2nd contest? lost to Sergio Oliva.
At that very moment, NOBODY (Pearl,Gironda,Yerton,Gold etc ) saw Arnold as someone who could actually remain in the USA and take superior bb, Sergio Oliva out of the pic.
However; Joe Weider and Sergio never came in to an "agreement"
Look at Arnold now.
WoooSSSHHHHHHHHHHHH

He always downplayed the role drugs played in his career. As if he stopped using them at the 1980 Olympia
when it reality he used them for basically every movie role he had until 1989
go see Twins, he was even bigger than in Commando there

Yes, he had drive.. but so do many people.
I like Arnold a lot, but I stand by my words... the roids made him. He also had a habit of being in the right place at the right time.
-
that hair looks bad
he should stop dying it and just shave it off
those oversize rings look stupid too

The roids were no doubt an absloutely integral part of his success, without them he would have never gone as far as he did. That said, he was very fortunate in other ways as you mentioned, being blessed with a magnetic, alpha type personality and drive, amazing muscle genetics, height, and the good fortune in being in the right place at the right time.
Despite all his drive and hard work, NOBODY reaches the level he has without being extraordinarily lucky

His drive/work ethic is tremendous no doubt.

Lol - "also had a HABIT of being in the right place at the right time" - EXACTLY - the losers that have ANY critique of Arnold are simply jealous because something he made a habit of they have never ONCE done
Being in the right place at the right time isn't luck

I'm talking about when he came to USA, people assume he took D-Bol and then everything was at his feet.
WoooSSSHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

It basically was, dude. At least as far as being handpicked out of his bumfuck village in Austria and being taken to America by Joe Weider on a plane, given a place to live, and sponsored for a permanent resident visa without having basically proven himself as the best of the best in his field or having any kind of education or skill sets. This was Arnold in 1968, not 1985. No one had any reason to assume he was anything besides a local weightlifter with good arm & chest genetics for his age and limited time in the sport. There were guys who would've killed for the dream of living in California and being paid a relatively livable wage just to lift weights and pose in the magazines. He made the rest of his cash through various and sundry avenues, including low-end jobs, naked posing and G4P. When he finally did break into the top ranks of the IFBB, THEN he started deserving the adulation that was heaped on him and has been ever since. So don't get it twisted dude, he got VERY lucky. No American visa or Weider sponsorship - no movies/mail order business/American titles. Period.
