One I heard is he used to pimp his ex wife out.  Googled it and found her claim in court of this, lol:  http://articles.orlandosentinel.com/1989-03-05/news/8903050208_1_arthur-terri-jones-crocodile-hunting/2

Terri: ''During the parties' marriage, the Husband was guilty of gross marital misconduct. On many occasions, the Husband coerced the Wife to have sexual intercourse with business associates who were married so that he could use those episodes to blackmail the individuals involved and compel them to comply with his various schemes. The Husband has, on many occasions during the marriage, had sexual intercourse with other women and openly told the Wife of these encounters.''

Did he use to drink and smoke heavily? Strange how a guy with all that knowledge and access to best equipment and athletes, let himself go....  A genius though for sure

he didn't drink, but he did smoke pretty heavy

and he let himself go because once he stopped making training progress he would just get bored and say "fuck it" and then just stop training

His machines were top shelf. Nautilus and his later Med X were just incredible machines. His son's machines Hammer Strength are pretty good too.

The Samurai learns to rely on first his hands and feet, and then, on thearth around him, before he picks up a sword. The implements you speak of are crutches for the Western mind.

He also seemed like a bully letting everyone know when push came to shove he had a gun on him.
