Just some little corrections.

He obviously knows this kind of crap belongs on that board, not G&O, and he's just posting it here to piss people off. He's a troll, who when challenged will claim he's just a "fan". ::)

what a wiener.... i think 240 has bigger legs

Bob Paris was such a contribution to the sport. Writing Gorilla Suit was really the first public invitation into the dark side of bodybuilding. His determination is also mentionable, rising from a homeless teenager to a championship bodybuilder, achieving the dream he struggled to achieve for so long. He hardly took any steroids and tried to push the sport towards drug-free and artistic competition. I train to look just like him.
-
He hardly took any steroids
if under a gram a week is 'hardly took any steroids'.
and tried to push the sport towards drug-free
evidence please
-
if under a gram a week is 'hardly took any steroids'
By today's standards that is drug free!
-
dude still got a big head
-
Bob Paris is what bodybuilding is all about , perfect blend of balance & proportion , size , shape and aesthetics , amazing that he never once won a single professional contest.
I don't understand why some people make a big deal out of his homosexuality it has nothing to do with the greatness of his physique .
-
Yeah he had a great physique I just dont like Jumpstart's threads

Had one of the best relaxed posed build's ever.
-
if under a gram a week is 'hardly took any steroids'.
evidence please
Evidence of both is mentioned in his book. I'd quote but I don't want to search every frickin page for the lines.

I'm actually glad that Bob Paris chose that lifestyle.
With his look, physique, eloquence, and artificial test levels, he probably could have deflowered all 3 billion women on earth by now, setting their standards artificially high for the rest of us slobs.
I believe Bob being gay has made it possible for the rest of us to hook up. We owe him.
-
ha ha, I like your avatar 240. Is it supposed to be a reference to Mayhem?
-
actually i felt like appointing myself some getbig expert status. it's a crying shame that i am not deemed an expert yet. I'm a level 3 schmoe now, dammit!

You ain't kidding, I remember when me, Bob, Rory, Jon Aranita used to go out women were all over him.....LOL, what little did they know! But in all fairness, he did date Linda Blair for a while and used to even bring her to the gym!!

Intense Linda lived either behind or in front of Brad Davis the actor in that movie Midnight Express. Got a call one night to come over to her house from a few of my friends that were already there. I was with my girlfriend at the time. But, it appears I missed out on a great party. And it seemed a drunk and all fucked up Linda was the center of attraction. And I do mean the center.

He's doing PT in Palm Springs, but I doubt he weighs over 180.
Rod Jackson works out at Gold's Hollywood, and is still quite large.

And his posing routine was the most artistic and beautiful I've ever seen. I'm thinking of using his routine for the Mr. Getbig!
From the 89' Olympia

If today's pro's had bodies more like Bob's, the Olympia would still probably be broadcast on network (or at least cable) television and be more mainstream, instead of being an extreme fan PPV event. The bodies today are just too extreme for anyone except mass-loving, ultra-fans.
Maybe they should create a new IFBB pro event(s) called the Mass Monster Olympia or Mr. Hercules for these extreme bodybuilders and allow the Olympia to get back to more symmetrical, balanced muscularity of people like Dexter Jackson.

they're doing it at the IFBB Worlds, so the pros might not be too far behind

Was Bob born December 14th, 1959, or 1960? At the 1984 Mr. Olympia they announced him as 23 years old.
Gorilla Suit says 1959

I didn't know Bob was a firefighter.

Well that settles it since the book was written by him.
I think Bob is everything that most beginner bodybuilders go for when they first enter a gym. He is the epitome of tall, dark, and handsome. He exhibited professionalism in everything he did.
But what is the deal with some homosexuals who show no signs of it at all like Bob and others who are more noticeably gay (i.e., conform to stereotypes when it comes to mannerisms, voice, etc)? I suppose I still don't know much about how homosexuality happens and whether it is more environment mediated, or genetic, or both.
I theorize that the more flamboyant, noticably homosexual men are suffering from high levels of estrogen. That makes sense, doesn't it? They're soo very feminine and what makes a woman a woman? ESTROGEN! Being a BB, Bob Paris obviously isn't having trouble producing testosterone and blocking estrogen.. God bless him.

I disagree I think the beginner bodybuilder wants to be big and thats it , believe me aesthetics & balance aren't on a beginners mind when hitting the gym .

here we go again. Most homosexual men aren't effeminate. Some heterosexual men are. Sometimes effeminate behavior is a political statement, more so perhaps when there were fewer civil rights for gays.
Sexual orientation has been studies in earnest since at least the 1940s. Thousands of scientific papers have been published in peer reviewed journals. No correlation has been found between sexual orientation and environmental factors. No correlation has ever been found between sexual orientation and hormonal levels of the person. How much testosterone or estrogen you have has no effect on who you're attracted to.
Recent studies have found possible correlations with hormones in the womb, but the hormones are stress related hormones, not estrogen or testosterone.

Bob paris , arrogant fag !!!!!
At a pro show way back in Australia , where the likes of Gary Strydom,Albert Beckles, Robbie Robinson,Bertil Fox and the like were competting I was back stage helping and I got photos with every athlete that was there, EXCEPT Bob cause Bob didnt want to take a photo with me or any one , I pleaded with him , but still know , I asked why not , he wouldnt answer , I called him a fag , he got mad , I never got my photo !!!!
-
I called him a fag , he got mad , I never got my photo !!!!
and if Beckles, Robinson or Fox turned you down, would you have called them a guy ?
-
Bob from 1983
These shots are from late 1982 because this article was definitely pre 83 nationals....

and if Beckles, Robinson or Fox turned you down, would you have called them a guy
No probibly not but you just did !!!!!!!! :-\
Ahh but they didnt , they all where to happy to , and bob was the last one I approached so it was baffiling to me why he was refusing everyone, and he was arrogant and mad about it !!!!

or maybe you aren't cute enough marc!
-

Ohhh no no I am cute enough , I have been called cute all my life !!!!
Defintion of cute : ugly but intresting !!!! :-\
-
bob's definition might be a little different though...
-
homo or not, he looked great.
Sorry, I meant HOSTILE is clearly repressing with his hating on Paris. Personally I think it's cool some bodybuilders have the balls to admit stuff like this in such a harshly critical environment such as probodybuilding. Great bodybuilder too.

"No correlation has been found between sexual orientation and environmental factors"
This statement is not correct. There are definite influences of environment on sexual orientation, especially with a genetic predisposition (someone who does not have a strong sexualually oriented instinct). Most scientists believe there are genetic and environmental influences that mix.
-
I enjoyed his book "gorilla suit". Also one of the best aesthetic physiques of all time and someone who moderated their supplement use...as I wish the guys today would do!

environment influences sexual behavior, not sexual orientation. you even say "someone who does not have a strong sexually oriented instinct", which may be another way of saying bisexual. Environmental factors did not make someone have a neutral sexual orientation, but it can influence how they act. Sexual orientation is how you feel. Sexual behavior is how you act on those feelings.

Wow, what a physique Robbie has in the arm blaster shot...The way physiques should be....absent of bowling ball " synthol" delt everyone has today. Seriously, I can't wait to see BB come full circle and be able to watch muscles actually change appearance as they contract. Today a guys rear delt is oily and round even during movement. Bring back the good days of physique contest.

I predicted this years ago on here and on Mayhem and people were calling BS. Well, here it is years later and a change is coming (sloooowly). I basically said that these "mass monsters" cannot safely stay that size and carry around that much mass (fat) in the offseason nor have that kind of size on stage for that long!
I also predicted that the smaller more aesthetic bodybuilder will be making a comeback.....and they are!

the top amateurs are no better. They're all using GH, insulin, synthol and site injections. things will not change unless the judges start scoring differently.
perhaps to force bodybuilders to achive a physique that is maintainable throughout a year, they should be required to compete more than once a year. to qualify for the main event (be it NPC Nationals or IFBB Olympia) you must place in the top 5 or 10 once in the spring, once in the summer, and once in the fall. Or a point system, 15 points for 1st place, down to 1 point for 15th. Points accrue for the year, top 10 or 15 go to the Olympia.

He rejected you and you have been waiting for the opportunity to express this statement haven't you? All these years, you have secretly been waiting for someone to start a Bob Paris thread and now you had the chance to tell us all how you felt way when in that dark backstage area where you pleaded with Mr. Paris and he rejected you.
Ok.
-

Thats exactly right!
Tim, I think you and I are thinking similarly. Its my belief that Sexual Orientation may come in shades or degrees dictated by genetics. Behavior of all types is linked to environment. Point is...some people in that middle area of sexual orientation can be influenced by environment to experience a same sex encounter though they are predominantly heterosexual. Alchohol, drugs and environment lift inhibitions and encourage people to try new things. I believe this happens quite frequently with females. I've also seen it with a couple guys in certain environments and was surprised cause we thought we knew them well. Doesn't matter to me, just interesting discussion.
-

No because niggers get violent. Gaylords just get a bit teary.
-
here we go again. Most homosexual men aren't effeminate.
Then why are there so many effeminate gay men walking around?
-

Another first class quality piece of imbecilic crap from the desk of Joe
Whats racist about what I said? Black people call themselves niggers all the time. That word is pure stigma. Nothing else. The only racism surrounding it originates from when people are a: trying to be negative or b: trying to suggest that if you're white you're not allowed to say it.
Not to mention that I wasn't even the one who first brought it up (see Tim's post) ::)
Just for the record dipshit, you'll never one up me ever. Do continue to try though. Halfwits are a blight on society.
