I still to this day find it unbelievable that Mendenhall was never able to realize his potential & gain a pro card.The man was absolutely incredible when it came to a bb'er w/size & shape to his physique.Besides being blessed w/great genes he also bagged Rachel McLish (sp?) as a gf.Lost in some areas but won in others I guess.

Demayo: Dead.
Flex: Ruined his kidneys
Mendenhall: Burnt out on steroids.
Levrone: Small as a stick nowdays
Coleman: Former Mr.O

3/5: Either dead or struggling with health issues
1/5: Stick figure
1/5: Mr.O, will die before 60.

BB is very healthy.

knny, you're the greatest, LOL!

I like how Flex raises his eyebrows like he knows she's gonna check his package.

One of the best clips I've ever seen. The line-up was classic.

Too bad though, some of them actually looked worse as their careers progressed.

crazy how Ronnie looks WAY bigger when he is being compared to the other guys at the end

usually, everybody looks better when they pose alone

Bar none the best amatuer competition ever.  I remember a guy from our gym who has jacked as hell and got waxed.  When he came back he said some guy came out of know where and took it.  They could not tell who or what he was , ended up being Kevin Levrone.  The rest is history.

This YouTube phenomenon's the best thing to happen to bodybuilding in a long while, IMO.  It's just what the sport needed.  The opportunity for the sport's reflection on it's past has never been more present.  Seeing it now from our current perspective offers us alot of insight.  I'm gonna predict right now that we see another golden era emerge in the sport over the next 2-3 years, so look for the superheavyweight national-level classes to be pretty badass by 2008-2009.  It'll be interesting to say the least.   ;)

I think you are exactly right about the superheavy class emerging in the next few years.

Also, Ronnie looked like he was actually somewhat of a good poser in that video.

I agree.  They had the best "supplements" ever during that time frame.  All human grade.  Then Bush in 91 enacted all those tough laws.

AWESOME.   8)  I've heard guys tell basically the same story but included the fact that a year before that he was competing at 210 or something.  I remember reading his competitive record in one of his earliest Flex articles and they said that just the year before THAT one that he'd competed at something closer to 185 at the 1990 Maryland State Championships.  Who knows the exact numbers and years?
