Sad day to know The Master Blaster has passed. I know for me, I would not be where Im at in my lifting, BB, eating, life, if it were not for his influences. R.I.P.

Leaving big shoes to fill. Arnold is always given credit for making this sport what it was, but he was the man behind the man.

Sucks, a legend but led a good life and made it to 92...I can say I'd be happy with that along with the legacy he left behind.

Yeah, as awesome as it was just to make it to 92 and have accomplished everything he did, he lived through the depression, most of the major wars in America...crazy to think about. Just the evolution of the country, when he was born, cars were barely being produced, now you can start your car from your cell phone so you don't get cold...insane...

Definately a great life he "Made" for himself and his family, and then the world!

Will be interesting to see what direction the bodybuilding world takes with the new management. Who is the head honcho now?

His son is CEO! And I think he has been running things for a bit!

A giant of an entrepreneur... Our entire industry and lifestyle were almost entirely built through his vision.

He leaves behind an incredible legacy. In many ways we all owe him a tremendous debt of gratitude.

Peace, G
