This is horrible. Grant and I spoke almost daily. This is from his girlfriend….
Today is an unimaginably difficult day. I am not normally someone to broadcast my pain online, as I don't feel that is the place for it. But I am trying to let as many people know as possible so that I do not have to repeat the story over and over. It is hard to just get it out once.
Grant passed away just a little after midnight today of a heart attack. He had been in the hospital with intestinal and blood clot issues. My heart is broken. For those of you who knew him well, his big heart and sense of humor were part of what made him so special. He was and will always be the love of my life. We had 13 years together, and there were many ups and downs. We had endured countless health challenges and life struggles together. I could not have asked for a better friend and partner. Please be patient with me. If you do not hear from me, just know that I am overwhelmed and grieving. Thank you to everyone who has given him their love, support, and friendship throughout the years. He cherished that.

May the next words he hears be, "Well done, faithful servant."
-
Wow,that`s horrible news,I`m shocked right now...he was a great guy.
RIP
-
How old was he? May he rest in peace. :'(
-
Dammit. Seemed like a really great guy. My condolences to his close friends on here. RIP!
-
Terrible news - great guy - super fair mod...
RIP...

Drug use in bodybuilding is healthy so there is no reason he should have had so many issues.
Very strange. Was he vaxxed?
Hope your getting regular checkups, Coach.
Edited in shame. :-[

I had the over/under on a post like this as 8. I took the under.

What?
Seriously?

I'm guessing early 50's at most. He won the Mr Zimbabwe in 93, and came to America right after finishing college around 95.
He popped in just a few days ago. Shocking.
RIP.
(Grant's best moment here was the "Twila" saga of 2009. Old timers will remember it - https://www.getbig.com/boards/index.php?topic=254751.msg3589009#msg3589009 , https://www.getbig.com/boards/index.php?topic=301899.0 ).

He was a good poster and a good bodybuilder. RIP bro.

I had noted he replied to a post of mine recently.
RIP

When was he Mr Zimbabwe? 1993 maybe? Saw a picture of him post bodybuilding and he looked young and healthy. RIP!

Grant was a great guy- just like Maxrep. He will be missed.

This should be pinned. Grant was an integral part of getbig.

Man......he's been on here for years. He even pranked me a long time ago.
R.I.P.

Rip to him. Didn’t know him personally but loved his posts and seemed like an awesome dude. He may be gone but he had a hell of a life. Hope all his family and loved ones heal from the pain as quickly as possible so he may look on to them from heaven in peace.
-
Fucking horrible. He was a good guy. Hadn't spoken with him for years, but he always had great stories.
He'll be missed by a lot of people.
RIP brother

Grant would always give a “like” and put an encouraging word on my Facebook pics! …( even if I looked like refried beans) …. Seemed like an upbeat overall just a good dude!

It's too bad you weren't the one breaking the story. ;D

Mods, can you please pin this thread?

Didn’t have time to post whole lot today. Grant and I spoke regularly, whether by text, through social media and once in a while by phone, we talked a lot about politics (he was a Conservative) and even given some to my son when his family planned and visited South Africa a while back. One thing people didn’t know is that he was Christian and we even spoke frequently about that. But one thing that very few knew about, is that he was a shooter, loved firearms and firearms training. His last job was at a firing range where he, among other things, was an instructor and a range master. That was probably the thing we talked about most. This sucks.

RIP. I remember him on Getbig. That's way too young.

Grant was a regular poster on Getbig, and I knew him well, 15+ years ago, when he was in the supplement industry, and saw him at quite a few shows in California, etc. Always a good guy, always respectful out here. RIP Grant. Thank you for the memories. As you get older, health crap kicks you in the ass.

It's disheartening when board members pass. So much more when it's youngers. He was a great poster with many experiences he was happy to share on here. Wasn't a douche like you'd expect. Great build

R.I.P. Grant.

Looked a lot like Calum facially in some pics

Damn - he died a young man.
Came across as a decent man - RIP Grant .

he seemed like a really good guy
his life was short but he seemed to be living the dream, i hope he is in a better place

Grant was always so cool. Always quick to laugh. We trained together many time.
That good looking SOB will be missed. ❤️
-
Rip….sad….im shocked.
-
Anyone who had the fortitude to moderate this place gets respect in my book....RIP
-
Ah damn
One of the nicest guys on gb gone
-
how old was he and did he have kids?
E
-
So without anyone truly knowing, what do we think was the cause of death?
Clots caused by?
Seemingly the only rationale is either covid shot complications (was Grant the type to take the shots?) or past steroid and other bb drugs in the past that caught up with him? (was he on any sauce other than TRT at his age?). A combination of these or perhaps some unknown genetic hereditary issue?..
THOUGHTS..

Guy had strong wig game, too.
Sorry, I just had to say this.

Grant was a good guy and friend.
Got to know him over the years and he was always a gentleman.
RIP "Lone Wolf"

Idk who he is, but, R.I.P.

I am still in shock over Grants passing. He was a good person who died way too young. I don’t know if he got the covid jabs but it seems suspicious. And for this alone, it makes me very angry and heartbroken. Handsome, kind, an animal lover, genuine and funny….❤️ Rest In Peace Grant

PIP to a Getbig brother.

Many men have dreamt of doing this, but Grant lived it. PIP

He was a friend to many here. I hope in time his family friends finds peace.

Sorry Coach, guy was class act. I use to message him when I was a teenager first joining this board. He always was a cool dude and gave open and honest advice. He always look healthy and fit, kind of hits hard when guys like him pass early.
-
I don’t log in and rarely check, but I saw Grant passed and I thought it fitting to give him a proper getbig send off.
Grant was a good guy, A caring person, and above all, a decent human being.
The world is a little worse without him in it.
Godspeed Grant.
All the way good dude.

I recall that he was very open minded and supportive in the sex forum more than a dozen years ago; I always appreciated that.
On a side note: is Mr. Zimbabwe a thing? Does that contest/title still exist? Can you name or pic another Mr. Zimbabwe? I can’t be the only one who raised an eyebrow the first time I ever saw that claim to fame. https://www.bodybuildingzim.co.zw/
I seem to recall that Grant was from South Africa. Can anyone confirm?

Grant won it in 1993, and there was another guy, Darrin Smith that got a tiny bit of press for winning it too. It was the modeling work that really got Grant his claim to fame. I did a deep dive on it years ago, and it's a tiny contest, it's not uncommon for one guy to win it 4-5 years straight, or for there to be no contest at all because of lack of money and contestants.
Here's the guys that handle it - https://www.facebook.com/HarareBodybuildingAndFitnessAssociation .
