Formidable physique-even by today's standards, intelligent and very well read and crazy as hell, was a great guy to know, and a really good friend.

The very first bodybuilder I saw in person was a guy named Scott Wilson back in the early 80's. I recognized him from the magazines at the time. He was at the San Francisco Airport sitting by the departure gate where I was with my parents. He was wearing a polo shirt and shorts and had the biggest forearms I had ever seen. Most people when they think of Scott Wilson talk about his enormous shoulders, but the guy has enormous ripped forearms muscles that looked really freaky. I wonder what ever happened to that guy.

Unsurpassed in all of bodybuilding. At it's peak, in contest ready condition, not even Ed Corney could hold a candle to that stache. It is the standard by which all moustaches are to be judged.

Bay likey!

I remember him too. Would be cool to see what he looks like now.

Scott was a partner in one of the first Gold's fanchises, located in San Jose. Kick ass gym.

Yes, reading his book I formed the impression that Mentzer was a massive wanker.

Pete Grymkoski was no slouch in the moustache department but he simply wasn't in Mike's league. The subtle curve at the lower, outer edges, the overall fullness and the sheer majesty of Mentzer's stache is simply unmatched even by today's standards. Grymko, I will grant you, showed promise, but he simply retired from the game far too early to achieve his full potential.
