Here is Arnold with GSP not too long ago.
(http://i62.tinypic.com/etctbb.jpg)
GSP is 5'10.

He's also changing sexual orientation as well, to go by that sweater and oversized ring. And the creepy older man getting too comfy with the younger man arm placement.

I honestly think I would let Arnold bum fuck me if it meant I inherited his fortune. (No homo) (No Tbombz)

He has worn that ring for many years. The sweater looks like your average sweater to me.

He must have because Holyfield is 6'2" 1/2

GSP is literally 5'10. So, Arnold has probably lost 4-5 inches over the last 2-3 decades.

The rumour (speculation) is that he sold his soul to the devil and that ring is what gave him all his success. You see it in Pumping Iron too. So say the folks at bb.com...

How does one shrink, something with the spine?

How does one shrink, something with the spine?
Gravity (that force that keeps your feet on the ground) takes hold, and the disks, or cushions between the bones in the spine, get compressed over time. The back bones, called vertebrae (say: VUR-tuh-bray), end up pressing closer together, which makes a person lose a little height and become shorter.
Another reason why some older people shrink is because of osteoporosis (say: oss-tee-oh-puh-RO-sis). Osteoporosis occurs when bone is broken down and not enough new bone material is made. Over time, bone is said to be lost because it's not being replaced. Bones become smaller and weaker and can easily break if someone with osteoporosis is injured.
Google why do old people... and you will laugh at the suggestions that come up before you can type shrink. Can't screenshot from this computer.

Had Arnold attempted to maintain his competition size like so many "ex" Pro's do, he probably wouldn't be with us today, or at the very least, he would be highly un-healthy and he would not have made all the cool movies he made after his competitive days were over.
Gotta commend him for NOT trying to make a comeback to the Mr.O Masters ~
Arnold has never lost his self-confidence, so obviously, it was NOT dependent upon how muscular he was in order to maintain that attitude.
How many others can say the same? It looks to me like a majority of the "ex" Pros are still trying to hang on by that thread.... former shadows of themselves.
I'm not sure I would have let myself go the way he did, but with all of his success and money, how would muscle content have made a difference? It's not like he was selling a supplement line or buying into a gym franchise. He doesn't come out at the Arnold Classic in a tank top....

Arnold used bodybuilding as a stepping stone to get in movies. Sure he enjoyed the pursuit of bodybuilding in and of itself, but he had clearly defined goals - be world champion bber, get in movies, be highest paid actor, go into politics, be king of the world. Last one won't happen but he accomplished all others.
Arnold also approached bbing as it should be approached. Yes, be huge and freaky, but retain aesthetics and refine your body to an ideal. Strangely, for all the grief he gets, Phil Heath has realised what his best look is and not tried to add size for the sake of it. Kai, the artist funnily enough, has lost sight of this. Modern pro bbing is the manifestation of mental illness and chemical warfare.

“Older adults can get shorter because the cartilage between their joints gets worn out and osteoporosis causes the spinal column to become shorter,” he says. “Adults can also lose lean muscle mass but gain fat. This is a condition called sarcopenia.”
"While we may not be able to control some changes to our body as we age, there are some habits we can change to prevent losing as many inches. These habits include slouching, a lack of physical activity, smoking, drinking alcohol or caffeine excessively, extreme dieting, taking steroids and poor nutrition."

EXACTLY.... How many times do we have to say that Arnold wanted out of bodybuilding at age 27? AGE 27 ?
The average dude turns pro at age 30 ....
The only reason he competed in Pretoria in 1975 (age 28) was because it was going to be filmed as a movie and he was the star in it .....
So forget about Arnold wanting to do the masters or anything of that nature....
Had Hercules in NY (1970) been a Blockbuster movie; he would've walked away from bodybuilding without winning the Mr.O and not regretting it one single second.
WoooSSSHHHHHHYH BeYEKE !

I may have already said this in the past, but my daughter saw him when she interned in Sacramento and she said that I finally "dwarf" the Oak. I still look up to him, but in the way any grown kid would a hero from their youth.
He was a genuine 6' 1.5" or more when he was a young man.

Indeed he was. The official measurer is a fixture here.
-
In his peak he looked close to 6'2
Now probably 5'11/6 ft max
That's a big drop off in height
-

I would put him at no more than 5'10.5" based on that latest pic.

Yeah, crazy as hell. I always thought the shrinking thing was bullshit, but how else do you explain this?

Maybe GSP is actually 5'11 and not 5'10 ;D
-

I thought it was BS from the spinal column disc argument. It's obvious old people hunch over and develop a hump on their back, but you figure if they stood up straight they'd be the same height as usual.
My guess is he has osteoporosis and it's caused his torso to lose bone mass in the spinal area. That's caused the discs to fuse together.
I don't buy he was 6'2". I saw him next to Lou in many photos and he looks to be about 4"-5" shorter. So he's gone from 6'.05" to 5'10.05". That's not so much. Remember he always wears cowboy boots too, that's 2-3".

That's cause Lou probably wasn't even 6'5 to began with even in his prime. I bet Lou was anywhere from 6'3.5 to 6'4 max
-
I reiterate!
I was in a broadcasting technical staff at the 1992 Republican National Convention in Houston. I didn't interact with him in any way, but I was four feet away from him.
He is decidedly less than six feet tall.
-
Holyfield peak was max 6'1, confirmed by many who met him, no way 6'2 or above that... Arnold today looks really no more than 5'10 barefoot, lost probably about 1.5-2 inches from his peak, more is laughable... 6' peak max for Arnold...

Hmmm no
Our own Vince Basile measured Arnold at 6'1.5 prime
-
Arnold always had issues about his height.
Like 15 years ago or so he gave a tv interview in my country and he specially demand a higher chair for him so he would be looking taller than the female interviewer.
-
Hmmm no
Our own Vince Basile measured Arnold at 6'1.5 prime
Except he has no fucking proof for that or anything else he's said about Arnold, like his libelous remarks about Arnold sleeping with 15 y/o girls at their shared property.
In court that kind of argument wouldn't slide. Where's the proof he was 6'1.5"? It only exists in the smoky brain of a retired wannabe BBer.
-
He was a real 6' 1.5" in his hayday. He lost height due to age and spinal surgeries, haven't we been over this a million times before? At least he isn't a manlet.

Can you prove that?
-
Can you prove that?
That's true but people can't prove he wasn't either
The claims of his peak height 5'11 to 6 ft max is ridiculous
-
Can you prove that?
Our own Vince measured him, he looked tall next to people his whole life, and Dave Draper is 6' and Reg around 6' 1" in this photo.

Assuming he'd even want to.

How does one shrink, something with the spine?
The cushioning between your discs degenerates with age. Poor posture also plays a role in this. Taller folks often have the bad habit of stooping which over time becomes permanent. At nearly 70 years of age, I have degenerative disc disease as well as arthritis in my spine. Getting old is fucked.....regardless of what anyone says.
-
He already had a short torso in his prime. Now it has to be ridiculous short, but it seems he wears his pants quite low these days.
-
Yes, he certainly has "shrunk"

;D arnold is just a little guy, pic'd here with two guys of average height [ for giants]

That's not a scientific way to measure height. It's completely anecdotal.
Picture of Arnold next to a wall being measured by a tape would do it. So until then, his height will never be confirmed, but it's safe to say he's lost 2-3".

This... Basile also said that Arnold had 21.5 inches arms, lol... I stand by what i said many times, 6' foot (182-183cm) max for peak Arnold, nothing more, and 5'11.5 is probably more correct... 5'10 barefoot today...
-
he's well sub 6feet now ???
Does that mean Branch Warren will pretty much become a Daschund?

Yup. Here's Arnold with 5'11.5" Jimmy Fallon:

He was very much between 6'1" and 6'2" in his prime. That is indisputable.
-
He must have because Holyfield is 6'2" 1/2
Holyfield is NO 6'2.5". Just like Mike Tyson was not 5'11.5". You must also believe that Andre the Giant was 7'5"?
-
That's cause Lou probably wasn't even 6'5 to began with even in his prime. I bet Lou was anywhere from 6'3.5 to 6'4 max
Lou was 6'4" and change in his prime. Today at 62 years old and hip surgery he's between 6'2" and 6'3".
Arnold was 6'1.5"-6'1 3/4" in his prime. Today he's lucky if he can hit 5'11".
The majority of Arnold's height loss occurred during and after him being the Governor. Another man who lost an incredible amount of height, who also held an office, is Bill Clinton. He was 6'2"-6'2.5" and today has dipped below a flat 6'0". I can provide pics if necessary.

I'm disputing it.
