Nice house he had / has.
Would Bertil sell it to me in bargain....

BTW; Not once heard narrator in documentary stating anything about professional bodybuilding... Bertil was pro and placing 5th in the big O is more impressive than the amateur achievements. So makers of this documentary didn't bother to get their facts straight. Sure there was scene from Olympia but to general public it didn't come clear that there is Professional League in bb which is separate from amateurs. Should have also stressed more that as a pro you don't drive underground to make your living if you're as good as Bertil was...   

Otherwise interesting so thanks for uploading!

i was under the impression this all happened as he was rising up in bodybuilding, and he basically missed out on his career

 i didnt know what he had retired already............so whether this happened, or not, he never would have been mr olympia




this guy was a true fucking mutant though..........

Easily understood...Makkaway, Haney and Zane were all better than Bertil....more seperated, better posers, better conditioned. I'm not sure Bertil EVER placed ahead of any of them at any point in his career.

you cant compare zane and bertil

it s like comparing cars with jets

On at least two occasions, Bertil placed higher than Makkawy- 1981 Belgium GP and 1982 Night of Champions.

He is still alive, otherwie the title of this thread would have been, "Bertil Fox and Bodybuilding--Till Death Do Us Part"

Well in the course of the programme he get's shacked up wih his dream woman, then murders her, so that would actually be a fitting title.

I heard that he killed the woman that he was living with, any truth to those rumors?

According to Rehtaf Ruo, he will be back in 2011 to win the Mr. Olympia just before his 60th birthday.  ;D

One day I hope to have the same level of knowledge of bodybuilding history as you, Joe.

He put up with extreme racism in his youth. Back then the Uk like the US had much more overt racism and discrimination. He did the right thing getting away from the white oppressors when he was in a financially strong enough position to do so, but totally the wrong thing by taking up with the kind of woman he got involved with.

Still, I have much sympathy for him. A tremendous physique and given a very raw deal all ways up.

You people talk a lot of shit for never having known him or trained during that era. And yes I know him and trained with him. Judge not lest yee be judged. Let the first one amongst you who has not sinned cast the first stone. I'm not saying what might have happened was right, but if you read the Bible you know that it is not ours to judge.
