Erik Fankhouser

OK I think it was Nasser Sonbaty? Who got busted for synthol. I think.


Is Robert googling these people?

Robert said:
I knew the first three, then I used Google to find the pics he posted of them, the last one I had to do some digging, I did not know him by the pic.

Yup. It's the House!

I missed the Nasser stories. You're right!

Nasser's Synthol denial | Flex | Find Articles at BNET

And I'm glad to keep visitors guessing. :)

Here's a bit of text from MD's board related to the Fankhouser "drama":

"I am pleased to announce that Erik Fankhouser has re-signed with MD. The term of Erik’s last contract had expired. Erik was not fired! It was always my intention to renegotiate and resign Erik.

Erik will be competing at several shows this year including the New York Pro. We plan on following his progress on Muscular Development TV and in the MD Magazine.

Erik has been a great and appreciated member of MD.

Erik is one of the most popular MD athletes on the boards along with his lovely wife Heather.

Wishing Erik all the best."

I believe Fankhouser had posted a farewell to MD and a thank you for having been a Team MD member on his Facebook page, believing that his contract was not going to be renewed. A minor furor erupted over this development and soon after MD announced that they had signed the House to a new contract.

Always in the plans or a fan-based change of plans? MD says it was always in the works.

OK, I confess, I'm not googling but I get a little help from a bb fan.

"Phone a friend" is encouraged! :D

Hints: This bodybuilder competed from the early '60s to the early '80s. His "controversy/gossip" factor relates to a medical drama which began almost a year ago to the day.

how would you "Google it", not sure what you mean by that.

You could google some aspect of the bb's career (i.e. 90s Mr. Olympia, famous for legs, etc.). Hell, I googled "famous bodybuilders" just now and got a list, I've heard the names of like 60 to 70 percent of them.

... helps to have a brother interested.
 
... the shape of the back of the arms reminds me of that freak guy with the crazy arms.



... I got nuthin'.

I'm old as dirt and have been interested since I was only as old as, uh, potting soil? I'd probably know 85 to 90 percent of them.

No one in my family is interested in bodybuilding.

I am teh outkast!

I remember buying this issue of Muscle Builder Power. Man, that cover knocked my socks off. A little kid, 15 years old, seeing that people could actually LOOK like superheroes!

Not Danny, but he definitely was a beast!

Another clue or hint: France

Oh my god. I actually recognize that cover. How, I have no idea. I would have been, like, 7.

Haven't looked in the Arnold is god thread. It is possible that I've seen it here, more likely that I've seen it online or on some other forum or something, but for the life of me, I could smell the inside of my father's closet when I saw that. Also where he kept the Penthouses.

Predator.

Is the first one Ah-nold? I don't think it is.

Predator is correct! :D

The previous pic is not of Schwarzenegger, though.

Hint: The associated drama or "gossip" is this athlete's untimely death. :(
 
Untimely death... that Staten Island guy? ....crap I'm bad with names... Joey something?
 
... dead... Eric Fromm...

there's a guy from the UK too...
 
Oh wait there was that recent one... Matsuda, beaten to death...
