Can't say that I have. What about him?

He's about 5'10

Cool. So why is it hard to believe he used GH? That kind of size at his height does not seem possible without it. Unless it's some illusion that tricked me? What is he? Narrow or something?

But looks like a thick/strong dude for sure. Full head of hair as well!

But these pics of Bob Paris really are motivating to look at and just shows what a mess it's become today. In the IFBB, that is....

Lazar angelov is very close to this, maybe 15-20ibs more muscle and they'd look very similar.

Look at the lineup for year Paris won the Nationals. At the time, I was a member of the same gym as the guy who came in 7th, Steve Adell, and he was unreal.

NPC National Bodybuilding Championships Overall Winner Bob Paris HeavyWeight

1 Bob Paris 2 Rory Leidelmeyer 3 Mike Christian 4 Jeffrey Williams 5 Matt Mendenhall 6 Rich Gaspari 7 Steven Adell 8 Neal Spruce 9 Jon Jordan 10 Jeff Smullen 11 Gregory Comeaux 12 Ron Love 13 Cal Lueneburg 14 Jeff Everson

Not sure if it's over use of insulin and gh, but today's pros look like bloated turds 90% of the year and still can't truly peak on competition day.  The 70s 80s and early 90s pros looked great all the time.  Wonder if the "sport" will ever reverse course.

How many pros today could hit his signature pose?
How many pros could hit that vacuum like Brian Buchanan did in that top photo?

As someone who looked away during 95 - 2013 the difference is astonishing - I didn't see any graduation in physiques so the only distended gut I remember seeing before my sabbatical was a picture of Nasser mid-calf in the sea in a picture in MuscleMag (maybe the Steve Neece column?).  I remember thinking, "Wow, that's some belly", but I was a fan so forgot about it and went away for years.  And in fact it was hearing about his death that first brought me back to BB and then GetBig.  I only hope these new guys are not selling their futures for 'a plastic trophy', as so many on here put it...  ???

Long before he officially came out, it was well known that Paris was Gay.

Meanwhile, Weider always presented him as a guy who did great with the ladies. The photo shoots would always have him surrounded by hotties.

Bob Paris looked awesome but for those saying he should have been
Mr. Olympia is ridiculous.
Now, he could have won a (World's most perfectly built man) but he did not come close
to meeting the requirements of a Mr. Olympia.
Sergio Oliva set the standard for what bodybuilding contests would be and everything after
would be an advancement on that standard.
Paris just didn't have the crazy round muscle bellies, dense/bulbous development
or the condition in all areas. (His glutes would be considered fat by 90's + standards
until today.
Perfect body for movies or picking up women. The modern Steve Reeves.

He'd definitely be tough to beat at the 2015 Olympia...in the Physique Division.
