I wonder if the COVID lockdown is playing a role in the increase of deaths recently.

Very sad.

I had a feeling this was more serious.  Something seemed a bit off in his last couple videos he made.

RIP Ric Drasin.  Original Gold's Gym member and he created the logos for Gold's and World gym.  Fine guitar player too.

Unfortunately, it turned out like we said it would in the other thread  :-\ 

There's a bit of a surreal feeling to this one. I went back and watched the update his son posted to his channel a couple weeks ago. While he was saying Ric was doing better, would be posting a video update soon and all that, watching it again the son looked very distraught. I think he knew Ric didn't have much longer.

He seemed to have lived a happy and fulfilled life, and would speak frequently about how many of his friends and collegaues that had passed away, so he felt a need to tell as many stories and advice as he could. He definitely was very much aware of his mortality, even when he was perfectly healthy. I wonder if Arnold is going to catch wind of this and get another reminder, as he must have after Franco passed.

PIP.

Sounds like Arnold didn’t have time to grant a dying man his last wish.

Yes Arnold is, a scumbag, selfish person. Someone said Arnold resented Rick, promoting himself as Arnolds partner in the gym. We all know it was Franco. But it doesnt matter now. Too late, for the video of the two of them together, like Franco is dead too. Arnold skipped his funeral also.

don´t think ric said he was a regular training partner just sometimes
I think ric knew a lot about Arnold
i remember in one video he told a story of Arnold trying to fight someone. He said he was like a little girl. laughed at him

"This is Sami, Adam, and Shane. It is with great sadness and a heavy heart that we have to announce the passing of our father. He was everything to us. A father, role model, and friend. Not only was he an inspiration for countless people, but he truly cared for those around him. His life was steered by the desire to uplift and share his positivity. He always found a way to brighten the room with his humor. Ric’s immeasurable presence will be with us all forever."

He was a great guy. I am really sorry to hear about his passing. A about 10 years back he sent me a few videos. One was him doing a pilot for a reality TV wrestling show. (I think it was a ring in your backyard?). Also send me a video of him with one of you (the sons) out and about at the beach side walk with him filing with a handheld camera and you guys clowning around  (can't recall where but looked like Venice or Miami).

Very solid guy. He left his mark on the world. RIP Ric.
