Oh nice! What was he like?
One of a kind. Witty, intelligent, crazy. Even training at Gold's Venice for a few years no one came close, not even remotely close, to training with the kind of brutal, savage intensity that Benny did. But, of course, I never witnessed Platz during his 1981 Mr. O training. I heard that was unreal and even Mr. Intensity himself, Mike Mentzer, commented that Tom seemed like a man possessed.
