It's crazy to me that this dude looked like a middle aged guy in 1969 and now just looks like an older middle aged guy 51 years later lol
you are blind and look at it weird. He was a young guy that looked old as hell for his age. But A for effort
@rob Armstrong so true haha
Dude has aged well he look like a wrestler from the 90s not the 70s.
@Trouser Troll steroids is the word your looking for kid
@Hezekiah Danny instagram is for losers so i never have to worry :)
I love hearing these old stories on friendships. There was such a great fraternity in bodybuilding back in the 60s and 70s that is sadly gone today.
We can learn a lot from the old schoolers.
In the 70's Billy lived in Bloomington, MN when he was with the AWA. We would drive by his house just to get a glimpse of him. He drove a Cadillac Eldorado, his shoulders went from door to door. One of the biggest dude's I've ever seen, still to this day. Jesse Ventura copied everything he did. A true trend setter.
Many wrestlers tore a page out of his book! I was 4/5 when I seen him on tv and referred to him as hogans dad
Hogan too but yeah Jesse might have been worse😂
Rip
I met superstar billy when i was about 9 years old in milwaukee i was hanging out by the wrestlers locker room he was so humble and friendly it blows my mind to this day
That picture of Superstar Graham bench pressing was a wopping 585 lbs!!!! WOW!!!
This man is a true gentle MAN!
how do you know?
One word gentleman
Yes!
R.I.P Superstar Billy Graham your stories were fun to listen too, from Arnold to the Ultimate Warrior.
You know, I am okay with people disagreeing with me, but, I think Superstar is by faaaar the greatest wrestler of modern times. He set the template for many of the wrestlers we all came to love.But, not only that, he has inspired people we love and respect even outside of wrestling.
What a Legend!!!!! So much respect
This video is very emotional...those black and white photographs gets me everytime...Arnold just keeps on inspiring the world..
The Superstar was before my time, but his influence is undeniable.
Always been a Big fan of Superstar Billy Graham he had one of the best Built Bodies in Wrestling 👍
I was never the biggest fan of him, but these interviews have changed my opinion 180
What a fantastic interview! Superstar Billy Graham? I never heard the man speak before, but he is a great storyteller. Obviously he was very influential in the 'making' of Arnold that we all know and love. Very complimentary on his drive to the top. And how kind of him for a professional wrestler to care enough about a bodybuilder by enrolling him in college. And how nice that Arnold is Superstar's daughter's godfather
+Kevin C the super star was
+Kevin C The super star Billy Graham was basically the first hulk hogan.
Kevin C I've never heard of any racist incidents with Billy Graham. I think Hogans on his own there.
Merry Christmas, Joe Di Carlo, I think your post was meant for someone else. I didn't mention anything about that
+Kevin C my bad Kevin, Merry Christmas & all the best
Imagine Arnold being your Godfather. Man that would be cool.
Wow, he seems like a really nice, genuine guy!
A great interview with a rare historical account about a great man by another great man.
R.I.P. Superstar Billy Graham.😢
Super star Billy Graham was great. I loved the interviews with him and Ernie Roth, the Grand Wizard. "McMan" Legends!
WoW !! Thanks for sharing this Billy...So cool to see your a happy man...You deserve it..
superstar Billy Graham my favorite wrestler when I was coming up in the 70s.
I started watching wrestling, just at the end of Superstars time in the WWWF. I never appreciated him until recently, after watching all these interviews, and seeing what a trend setter he was.he may have been a heel, but what a great heel
Yeah a lot of people didn't care for him or care for his Cockiness but that proves what a great actor he was and how he fooled the people a lot of these guys are decent guys but they have to act like pricks
What a great friendship at a great time.
im happy this legend is still alive ! there where just to much deads in wrestling over the last years...
No joke. I never thought I’d ever see this many people passing.
Billy is a Class act!!!!!
Billy won the best arms division at the 1977 WBBG Mr America contest...
Thanks to Arnold
His Preacher Curls were legendary 🤠
OMG I GREW UP WATCHING THE SUPERSTAR BILLY GRAHAM!!! I didnt recognize him!! wow great stuff!!
Loved Super Star Billy Graham! Such a colorful and bigger-than-life character! He once said of an opponent, “I’m gonna give him a chiropractic operation!” Lol!
I met Arnold Schwarzenegger several times...Great Guy... , We talk about many things including chess Because I am a tournament player, Not only Arnold Schwarzenegger is the greatest bodybuilder of all time ...the highest paid movie star in the eighties and nineties and our governor in California for 7 years he also gives back to a lot to several charities gives up his time and money he's a very good person... Blessed by God and helps less fortunate... I told Arnold God-bless you and your entire family !!! Is bodyguard later told me Arnold likes you a lot because he can tell you are very sincere...
Arnold should feel blessed to know this guy, clearly outclasses Arnold 💪🏼
Arnold with moustache.. lol 🤣
Rare
3:56
SUPER STAR HAD THE BIGGEST ARMS I EVER SAW! MANY TIMES I WATCHED HIM WRESTLE IN MSG. GREAT INTERVIEW. NEVER KNEW HIM, AND, ARNOLD WERE BUDDIES!🏋️♂️🏋️♂️🏋️♂️
Great stories and pic's of Billy and Arnold !!!!!!!!
thanks for posting this.......its awesome!
Frank Zane had some epic abs.
Watched Superstar wrestle on the Weekend TV in the mid/late 70's, also saw him in REAL LIFE at a dive bar in MA- Superstar was fun to watch with his coach the Grand Wizard
rip superstar billy graham😢
Then Arnold pretty much forgot all the guys he met on the way up. Many guys who are interviewed on CZcams will tell you that
Wow, what a great story!
Thanks for putting this up!
007
Billy's biceps could compete with any mr.olympia...even arnold
Hogan ripped this mans whole gimmick
Artistic Skillz
💪🏼🎯
We all got a hero
@@aaroncook7687 💯 true
I always found it funny that in Arnold's first autobiography, he talked about losing to Zane in Miami and going back to his hotel room and crying for hours, and then assuring his fans: "This was one of the few times in my life that I ever cried."
Agree with grindhouserob, what a wonderful and you can tell, an honest story. BG also had a great physique.
Damn. Great interview
Looks like an old old version of Scott Steiner
That's because Scott Steiner actually got his look and material from Superstar Billy Graham.
steiner never had the body of superstar...steiner was just all arms..not much else...
@@bigconan are you blind or acting blind, Steiner literally came to the ring in competition condition every time in wcw.
@@higherpower254 superstar at his best, was far better built...not quite as lean, but far bigger...steiner was never all that big...he had big bicep peaks...other than that, he didn't have all that much....event the rock is 3x the size of little boy steiner...
You mean Steiner looks like a young version of the Superstar. Another guy riding the Superstars coattails.
Impressive bench is that 585lb
I can bench 600...weight 190
@DixieHighway10,10,10's Who Cares idgaf
@DixieHighway10,10,10's Who Cares Pfft that is nothing but a girly weight , you are not even a man , i can bench 602 lbs , now watch me hit my most muscular pose , yeah baby aint nothing but a peanut , now watch me hit side chest , yeah what u think of that ooooooooo little fart just sneaked out oooops that fart had a guest il brb
🤣🤣🤣🤣
Yes
I wish I had this dude's arms, for my legs.
Actually the story of Arnold's calves by Superstar...if it was early in Arnold's career in California, one wonders if there were implants. I doubt it, for he worked out hard. I have a 'Best of" Weider book with an article by Arnold where he said that his calves were the result of 500 hrs of work
+Kevin C I doubt there were calf implants at that time. (If there were, Bill Grant would have got some!) But I guess Arnold really looked up to Reg Park and followed his lead on heavy calf work. Plus he made a point of cutting off the bottoms of his sweats so he couldn't hide them from anyone. Incredible focus and determination.
Kevin C ...from what I’ve read of Arnold’s BB career, his calves were his weak point early on -his Achilles heel. Arnold being Arnold, he saw the weakness, put his mind to it (and a lot of pounds and hours of work) and built those calves into a strength. Arnold wasn’t satisfied with any weakness or disproportion to his physique. His MIND was SET on physical perfection, and he got as close to it as anyone I’ve ever seen either before or since. It’s just too bad he didn’t put as much emphasis on doing as well in the real man department and strive for perfection of character to match his physique, for the truth is that NO OTHER SUCCESS CAN COMPENSATE FOR FAILURE IN THE HOME. We all love Arnold, there’s so much to admire about him. But he failed at home, causing a lot of pain to the people who love him most: his wife and children. But life is about learning from mistakes and I hope big ‘A’ learned from his. If he would work on that particular weakness of his with the same aggressive mindset that he applied to his calves when he saw the weakness there, he would be a much better man in the areas of life that are so much more important than bodybuilding. Bodybuilding is a temporary thing and what you build there doesn’t last while character is something that can last forever -something you get to keep and take with you.
He said nothing worked for him til he tried doing many sets of super heavy Standing Calf Raises - up to 1000 lbs - every other day. Then they grew *significantly* (joke intended) Heavy ppl have big calves bc of the heavy load put on them, often. Throw in fantastic overall muscle genetics plus plenty of juice and BOOM! Killer Kalves!
ps: Implants can't calf raise 1,000 lbs for reps!!
Early on Arnold had small calves compared to the rest of his body. His earlier pictures he would stand in water up to his knees or either have the camera man not show them. He prioritized his calf training and slowly they began to grow.
R.i.p Billy Graham
Grahams legs at 2:19 are massive.
That’s an awesome story.
I was there, it was October 1968.
thank you for these vidoes hannibal. without you these storries wouldnt be heard
he is a very nice and humble happy man
Who cares about arnold, that there is Superstar Billy Graham! One is an all time legend. The other is arnold.
super star was always one of my favorites
dave draper the blond bomber!
;49 is that franco?it looks like him
Thank you for your beautiful interview to told by him because we don't know by Arnold Schwarzenegger very well but you had knew well so said about of this media thank you, and almost I will say as my part of thanks for this blog
It would have been cool to have included Superstar Billy Graham in the Pumping Iron Movie, even though he wasn't a competitive Bodybuilder at that time. Arnold probably wouldn't have wanted Superstar in the movie because Superstar would have been the Alpha male in any scene they would have done together.
I'm amazed both of them are still alive. They both did tons and tons of juice
Juice back then was less harmful
yea you are right.Today too many people think they are chemists and make it. The only clean stuff today is test from a dr.
Juice is juice my friend..it's not any more dangerous now than it was back then..the difference is now, guys are doing alot more than just juice...ALOT MORE.
almost anyone can say that though...people get sick all the time and need a dr. otherwise they'd probably die...no difference..
It’s about cycling on and off properly. Abuse of hormones and just about anything in general is bad
If he had not chosen a movie star career, it might be fun to see Arnold or even Lou Ferrrigno both become WWF superstars! Imagine the possible rivalries between them and Hogan, Andre or Warrior!
Lou Vs Hogan writes itself…. Who’s the real Hulk!
Superstar billy graham 1977 ringside interview.
The training must have been epic.
RIP Superstar!!
One of my first favorites. And an alltime favorite.
Woah look at arnolds legs at 1:15
Yeah and these new pregnant bodybuikders say arnold ne er had legs its a load of bullshit ..noone can hold a candle to arnolds body in 73 74
Watch the scene in twins
Arnolds calfs
exactly, and Phil Heath said Arnold had no legs, maybe in the 80' Olympia his legs were weak, but in 73-75' they looked fantastic
If Graham had gotten into movies like Arnold wonder how that would've turned out
Fantastic!
Ha! The year before that Frank Zane was our archery instructor at Eddie Graham's All American Youth Camp in Lutz outside of Tampa. All the wrestlers in the territory at the time had their kids at the camp including Malenko's boys despite the feud he had going with Eddie at the time. To all the other campers they were the Simon brothers, and they didn't want ANYONE to know who their father was.
You know this man has some awesome stories to tell
He is sharp and quick too mentally.
I remember Superstar at the Sam Houston Coliseum, telling all the women with...green teeth, white socks, and varicose veins not to touch him! Lol.
Wow what a story
Great video sir
1:07. It was really a bromance 🤣🤣
Hercules in New York, Arnold’s lines were all dubbed lol
Arnold didn't know what insignificant means. Today this is insignificant.
Great 👍 stories from one of the greatest to ever do it thanks 🙏 superstar
I imagine that his lifts must have been very impressive. I'd like to see more photos of those.
Being a God father is like family .. God first, than God father, than everyone else
Frank Zane was an awesome body builder.
1977 superstar billy graham interview
He's a hundred and fifty two years old in this interview.
Those calves. Brutal.
Awesome!
Superstar for sure.
I speak 3 languages and can tell you that learning a language to speak well is a hard task and can take a long time. Billy don't crticize Arnold for having a hard time with languages until you start to learn one yourself.
He was joking with him you idiot
wonderful guy
Did u see the guns on Billy Graham
Great story
It's a shame most of the photos were not in Focus properly or distorted
I thought this was going to be THE Billy Graham
Arnold with a moustache!!
Superstar is pretty bright for his age.
The greatest of all time!
Nope. Not even close.
Superstar made Arnold look like CM Punk! 😂
ha
I donated on his GoFundMe for a transplant about 6 months ago, where was Arnold..
It would be great if Arnold could get back in touch with him.
My favorite interview, great fella, good info on my idol AS.
Tells a great story.
The wwwf ruined his wrestling life taking the belt to put it on Bob Backlund and 5 yrs later put it on Hogan I feel it hurt Graham to see a Graham type in Hogan .
So wasn't enough for Arnold to be the most great bodybuilder of all time, the greatest action hero of his era, a big politician, so he'd also become the godfather :))
"most great" english much??
arnold as really done alot for his state.....NOT!
Billy had some guns, wow!
That motivation
