- A quick video covering the fashion choices of early bodybuilders and strongmen. Why did so many of them choose to perform and pose wearing clothes with leopard prints?

😂😂😂
One other thing about this - this is about the time that the first several Tarzan novels were being written. A little research shows that Tarzan was amazingly popular in those early days, with a lot of movies about him being made in the 20s and 30s, so that was likely an influence as well.
As a huge fan of the Tarzan books, I appreciate this comment.
As a kid grown up watching the black and white Tarzan films and TV shows what a time to be

That photo is amazing. He literally became the statue.
The only correct answer: because they were BEASTS
Ok now I gotta find a pair of leopard print sweatshorts to wear for gym lol!
Excellent!! This is one of the most unique YT videos i've watched in 12 years. Thanks for the effort. i like the short mini docs. :)
Are you telling me my auntie Judy is a Bronze Age bodybuilder?
🤣👍
So it seems
That picture of Armand Tanny @3:03 is one of the best pictures of him. He photographed nicely.
This has easily been my favorite fitness channels and the only one I have no complaints about
Hey Natty Life! Do you think you could make a video listing out the dumbbell/barbell techniques that were used way back in Bronze era??
I always wonder which movements were thought to be effective back then (especially ones involving the old fashioned spherical dumbbells).
I’m so happy your posting content again
I'm really enjoying your content, I'm glad I finally hit the 🛎 because I've been missing out on your recent updates but I am caught up now and I have to say you do remind me of Rudolph from Forgotten Fitness so I'm thinking you guys should do a podcast together or maybe collaborate on a video together or something. You both do fantastic work
Good video! Thanks.
Low key wanna train in these now 😂
The masculine urge to slay a ferocious danger cat with your bare hands then wear its skin triumphantly
feminine
Who is that guy at 1:33? Looking quite jacked!
The virgin trophy hunter skin
The chad animal enthusiast print
Kinda funny that you read a whole book for the sake of this NL 😂
I like your channel
I thought it started with a strong men in the Circus and the freak shows
My son's name is Namir which means strong like a leopard in Hebrew. I'm about to get some leopard print shirts and shorts.
I've never been this early to a video...
🥇
my vulva is aching for you
Because it’s awesome!!
ISometimes I wear my GF's leopard print yoga pants. Is that cool? I feel cool.
I wear my gf's too, very cool brother
@@zubbyy Nice! We should call ourselves Leopard Bros. Hey LB!
Fabulous, darling.❤
Can you make a video of Hindu pushups(dand) and hindu squats(baithak) from perspective of west? and how bodybuilding started in modern context before arnold mainstreamed it
😻😻😻
Ok I need one to go to the gym I guess
I always assumed it was a riff on Hercules.
Hey natty. Is there a way to grow limp wrists?
these days u would probably be called gay for wearing them
And where does one acquire such an (quality) attire nowadays?
Because it's hot obviously
but why not tiger? it is bigger and "badder" cat. i understand why not lion because its just one color.
now its mainly slags wearing it
Its because of Hercules
0:48 Were there already steroids back then? 😅
Funny how things change, in the punk community you will see almost exclusively chics with some leopard print tattoos, with the exception of a few boxers and kick boxers pretty much only women's garb comes in leopard print!
I like zebra print, it's cute it looks attractive but then when you get close I might start to bite hahaha
