Absolutely incredible genetics including age and ability to withstand gear. He must’ve been on for 30+ yrs.

His chicken breast count must be off the charts.

Could possibly be twice that. Hell I'm 49 and have used for 30+. Many old timers don't get off totally, why would they if it's working. Like Milos is 62 and on 250 test and 50 Deca week. That kind of thing. "Steroids are constructive by definition, not destructive." Milos started as a teen I think, so maybe 40+ years possibly. That's not to say they are totally innocuous. How long were Hulk Hogan and Stallone on for? 50+ at least?

He wasn't extremely aesthetic but these pics are insane, especially in context, when they were taken and so on (state of PED protocols).

Well, Robbie claims he wasn't paid for Pumping Iron! He said Pumping Iron was a fraud! He said that all the bodybuilders THOUGHT they were going to be paid $50,000.00 for Pumping Iron. And the contracts they all signed denied them the money. Seems like they all trusted Arnold and it wasn't hard for him to give them the "wrong advices"!

 
$50k for a documentary in 1974?  That’s the equivalent of $330k today.  There’s no way they all thought they were being paid that kind of money in the 70s. Especially for a documentary.

Who gets paid for a documentary? That might the dumbest thing I’ve heard.
