Arnold tricked a guy into yelling like a maniac on state during a bodybuilding competition.

The Prank Details

The Victim: The bodybuilder in question was a real person, a low-level competitor who was reportedly full of himself and approached Arnold and Franco for posing advice, believing better posing was all he needed to win.
Arnold's Advice: Arnold, known for his psychological tactics and pranks during competitions, told the man that the "new thing" in posing was to scream loudly to appear more impressive and noticeable to the judges and audience.
The Execution: The man believed Arnold and Franco, practiced the screaming routine for hours, and then performed it live at the Mr. Munich contest.
The Outcome: The audience was completely caught off guard and did not appreciate the bizarre, loud routine. The man was eventually taken off the stage, much to the amusement of Arnold and Franco.

This was a good read. I don't always agree with him politically but as a kid he was my favorite actor and his story is inspirational. He started with nothing and made something of himself.
A few years back he was at a body building event where they said no autographs. A friend of my wife snuck over a birthday card for me and he signed it anyways. He's genuinely a gracious person.

He also tricked Stalone into doing a horrible movie back in the 1990s by having his agent pretend he was very interested. They disliked each other greatly and Stalone took the bait thinking he was taking a role Arnold wanted.

The movie flopped horribly and only recently did Arnold tell his(now friends) that he did that.

Quote from bbier :
A man with very weak scruples. I shan't be reading this

Are your "freedoms" somehow now different or lesser because of him?


Makes zero sense how someone's off-handed remark against the spread of infectious disease is so constantly taken out of context and parroted over and over as though its some battle cry of tribalism

Basically hand waived away before talking about his illegitimate son.
As a fan I loved the book I wish he narrated the entire thing.

I got the audible book of this . Arnold reads just the first 45 minutes of it. It would of been cool if he read the whole book. Come on BIG GUY ... read your own book for the fans. ARE you not strong enough anymore to read outloud the WHOLE BOOK. ... I guess not.

To be fair, that housekeeper may have been really hot & an expert in the bedroom. That is wild to keep that secret so long though.

The only freedom in this country is the freedom to obey. You keep thinking otherwise though.
