well, he placed dead last in one competition.

That's why he chose to quit BB and became an Hollywood celeb instead, because he didn't like money??

the rock is not exactly a BB, he was a wrestler. Never competed. If you go for the fact that he works out, Matthew McConaughey would fit as well...  ::) ::)

Don't need to compete to be called a BB, as long as you are a man with muscles. Take Victor Richards for example.

Maybe they don't know how much he made in these?

The list is from IMDB.

And he actually was an actor trying as a BB, not the other way round.

I thought he was 3rd in a Mr. World or something.

Lifetime Gross Total (23): $1,621,940,362

Sean Connery came in 3rd in the 1952 or 1953 NABBA Mr Scotland, did not place in the 1953 NABBA Universe

adjusted for inflation.  $16 million for Dr No in 1963 is $111 million today

"Before starring as James Bond in the 1962 classic Dr. No, Connery made a number of low-budget films. The center photo is from the 1973 camp/cult classic Zardoz. An interesting note: in 1953, Connery entered the Mr. Universe competition, coming in third in the tall division. He was spotted for films in the contest. Visit the Classic Bodybuilders web site for a photo of Connery from the Mr. Universe contest."

Sorry, it was Mr. Universe.
