And then when Franco and I started our construction business, I said, come on, guys, we need some work. I said, we just had the earthquake here in Los Angeles. We need to rebuild some of the patios and the fireplaces and the chimneys. And they would come and they would just work one direction. this direction, and then it will work. They put the bricks on it.

I said, guys, you got to turn around and do it the other way too. No, no, but the sun is coming from here. We want to get a tan. We want to get tanned today. They were just there to get a tan. Lazy bastards, right? And I said, Franco, you lazy bastards, get out of here. You know, we always did the work.

But I mean, it was, so it's great when you see a bodybuilder like Franco Colombo or like Lou Ferrigno that really were working hard. I love that. Because it's like I always say in my book, Be useful, I always say. One of the principles is work your ass off. And be useful.

Well, Franco was basically half animal, half human. So he was like no one could figure it out because he was like he had this unusual strength and these unusual abilities. like who would just hang upside down on his toes on the chin up bar? I could never hold myself with my toes. He did. It was like a gorilla.

And then the way he was like going from bar to bar with his hands, he had this unbelievable power. It was like a monkey. And so he was doing things in the kind of lifts, I mean think about, the guy lifted like 750 pounds deadlift and he weighed like 180 pounds. It's ridiculous. And doing like with 100 pound lateral raises and stuff like that that I used for dumbbell presses.

Barely could do that with 100 pounds. And he would do lateral raises. I mean it's just crazy, crazy strength. And Franco came from Sardinia and the way he grew up was kind of like also very primitive out in the farm and he was like on a ranch and he had to go and take the sheep up to the mountains and he had to figure out himself how to go and feed himself. while he's up there for a few days.

So he had to kill animals and live like a really primitive kind of a thing. And so it was like all kind of very strange, but it made him kind of like a person that had no fear of anything. And so when I brought him to America, I tried to, Joe Weider brought me over to America first because I was like the big bodybuilder. I weighed 250 pounds. I just won Mr. Universe for the second time.
