i was reading about bill pearl and discovered he won the 1953 Mr universe, beating Sean Connery who finished 3rd
![Shocked :o](http://www.getbig.com/boards/Smileys/classic/shocked.gif)
all this time i admired his acting skills, his alpha male persona, his movies, his treatment of women, the way he never took any shit from anyone, the way he saw a woman and took her - including from 'London gangster' types, who he then proceeded to bitch slap ( a typical outcome when London gangsters meet a Scot)
now i can add bodybuilder !
what a man, what a Scot, what a getbigger.
Sean Connery we salute you:
