Very cool to see Bill still in the gyms. THE BEEF wonders if Bill ever trained in Golds back in the 70's?

It's obvious steroids haven't caused him lots of damage, still hanging in the gym at 84. Well done and it was fully worth it I'm sure.

Bill kind of looks like Horse from "The Wire"  -

Not bad for 84 though, looks 10 -15 years younger easily.

I met him several times.  Pearl's hands are like mits, his fingers are huge and thick... same as Arnold, Coleman, Sergio, Colbert, Park and many other big BBers.

Carl is a dude.

Met and hung with Mr. Pearl. Fantastic gentleman. When he goes, the culture of muscle will be all the worse. He's a link to a time when bodybuilding wasn't the joke it's become.

Mr. Pearl has amazing thickness for his age, my next door neighbour is a 90 years old colonel, with same thick and very strong build, it is amazing to see an elder human can have such thickness on shoulders and back, not to mention vice-like grip, more power to them.

Bill is the kind of man I strive to be. As said, I was given the opportunity to get to know him a little, and let me tell you, he's a wonderfully warm and sensitive man, all the while being strong, stoic and with a huge amount of character.

He's oldschool, in a fantastic way.

I cannot say enough good about Bill Pearl.

Bless him.

Carl Weathers is in some new show called "Colony" that's on right now, futuristic alien type stuff, not too bad so far..
I can see the show either getting good, or turning to pure shite... My guess is the latter...
