^ Prince, I met Hillebrand at the 1992 Arnold Classic. You attended that one, too?
He was in one of Jay Culter's DVDs as well. I forget which one.
This bodybuilder was one of my favorites back in the day. RIP Frank Hillebrand.
Thought I'd enlarge these two attachments...

At least he died doing what he loved. A shame that it was at such a young age though.

That's awful. He had a very aesthetic physique. I'm wondering if it was enlarged heart. Soemtimes that happens and the conductivity gets screwed up. They end up dieing not from stroke of plaque occlusion but from electrical dysfunction. If my suspicion is correct I think it's pretty rare.
