Tenkte jeg måtte hive ut noen bilder av MIN gamle helt.
Mannen som jeg syntes (og fremdeles synes) er rå >

Manfred Hoeberl. Hadde verdens største armer (sa de den gang...)
Et artig sitat:
"FYI- the Ironmind grippers are somewhat well known in strength circles. There are five different ones - trainer (100 lbs.), #1 (140 lbs.), #2 (195 lbs.), #3 (280 lbs.), and #4 (365 lbs.). To put these numbers in perspective - I saw an article recently by someone who brought his grippers to this year's Arnold Classic. He got a lot of really big guys to try them - only one person, Manfred Hoeberl, closed the #2. Among those who couldn't get the #2 were Dorian Yates, Greg Kovacs, and powerlifters Ed Coan and Anthony Clark. The #3 (which Hoeberl also closed) has only been "officially" closed by about 10 people, though many super strong guys (World's Strongest Man types, for example) have tried. *Nobody* has closed the #4."
Dersom noen har noe mer morsomt om denne mannen eller andre tidligere helter av slikt kaliber... kast dere på. Morro er det iallefall
Annen info sa:
"So, who is this monster? Manfred Hoeberl is the man with the World's Biggest Arms - 25 1/2 inches cold!! To put things into perspective, Arnold had 22 inch arms in his prime. Manfred is truly a giant, measuring 6' 5" and weighing in at 330 lbs. This guy is strong - really strong... He does chin-ups with 200 lbs. strapped to his waist for reps! He can curl 440 lbs. for reps! "
Om det er sant er noe helt annet, men du verden så morsomt det var å se ham i strongman øvelser... det var da jeg ble hekta på styrke!!!
