The entire story he tells in Pumping Iron about teaching the guy to scream while posing was classic. If somebody knows (or could summarize it) that would be great.
Reporter:Sometimes when people ask you advice...
if you think that they're being arrogant,
or misusing the sport of bodybuilding...
you give them kind of pranksterish advice.
And that's once happened
in a Mr. Munich contest, l believe.
Arnold: l think it was eight years ago...
when some fella came to me
in the gym and said:
''l want to win Mr. Munich.
l am a perfect poser...
''and l have a fantastic body.
''And l just want to learn
a new posing routine, a new style.
''Something way out
which nobody expects.''
So l said, ''Let me see
your posing routine you have right now.''
When the guy took his clothes off
and posed for me...
he looked like nothing, number one,
and his posing was bad.
So l mean, he was just....
l think he was crazy.
So l thought, okay,
if he thinks that he's the best poser...
l'm gonna pull a little trick on him.
And so that's what l did.
l said, ''Listen, l have a new posing routine
from America.
''l'm in correspondence with
all the top athletes in America.'' And so on.
And l told him that the new thing is...
that he has to scream while he's posing.
And he looked at me and he says...
''That's a new idea.
That will really come out impressive.
''When you go out on stage and scream,
people can't miss you.
''They'll all look at you screaming, that's it.''
So l taught him how to scream.
First of all, l oiled him up.
His body, with really heavy oil
and everything.
We're standing there in the shower room.
And l taught him how to do it.
The higher your arms go up,
the higher you make a screaming noise.
And the lower your arms come down,
the lower the noise.
This kind of a thing.
l practiced with him for around two hours.
Spent a lot of time on developing
his new posing routine.
And he mastered it very well.
He was screaming really loud
and high and low.
And he went to the Mr. Munich contest.
l told him when he walks out,
he has to scream loud, run out.
And so he did.
And obviously people weren't ready
for that at all.
And so, he went out there, screamed loud.
Went through three or four poses
with loud screaming.
They carried him off the stage
and threw him out.
They thought the guy was totally nuts.
