f*cking-A!!!

Too bad it doesn't give him any additional strength

Hilariously disgusting!

It could be that he learned the technique from Quagmire: http://www.videosift.com/video/Family-Guy-Quagmire-discovers-Internet-Porn

Or.. he only ate a HALF can of spinach. If he ate the whole can, then both arms would have bust out Popeye style.

Appears to be real:

It is supposedly a strategy through which by training just one part of his body he can compete at a lower weight category and clean house...

*fail, or is this spoiling it?

Adding video to channels (Fail) - requested by cybrbeast.

That's freakish.

For those that don't speak German -- the commentator mentioned that the guy's nickname is "hellboy." Frickin' hilarious!

Why not?

Fap, fap, fap, fap, fap, fap, arm wrestling, fap, fap, fap, fap, fap, fap, gym, fap, fap, fap, fap, fap...

I can see what he's trying to do, but what's the use in having a strong arm if the rest of you is so weak? He's got an incredibly strong lever, but no power to move it.

WTF's going on with his hand too?

Remind anyone of the guy from Lady in the Water?

Too hilarious. I thought maybe he just had a condition of some kind; it doesn't look muscular as much as just swollen and diseased.

Looks like he just has loads of fluid in the muscle and hand in general.

This is where most people draw the line because most men are motivated to do things well because ultimately it will lead to a better mate.

No chick will date this guy regardless of how much he wins, and no guy will respect his work because it seems cheap.... good try tho, at least it's good for an initial reaction laugh.

Apparently there are weight classes.

You think his dick is scared of him? I know i would be......

Heh, heh, heh, heh, heh. He masturbates.

How do you think he forms his faux-hawk?!

Definitely the manliest hand holding I've ever seen.

Wow, to spend so much time on his arm and still lose... It kinda sucks to be Mathtias

It seems like he must be injecting steroids directly into his hand, wrist and forearm. In photos, even the muscles in his hand look unnaturally enlarged.

Maybe other sports that see steroid use, like bodybuilding and baseball, don't have such a strong emphasis on hand and forearm, so that's why we've never seen anything like this.

just read some comments on other sites where his vids are posted and i think he has a genetic blood-flow disorder.

^His bio doesn't even mention his huge arm. It seems like his bio would mention a genetic disorder if that was the cause.

BTW although he does have a giant arm, the swelling in his hand seen in the video is apparently the result of tenosynovitis. He cites this as the reason he lost the match.

My dad has told me of a guy he was in the army with who was a pitcher and had one large, muscular arm. I don't think it was anything this ridiculous, though.

Yeah, seems pretty reasonable when you see what could go wrong

I actually just recalled a news story I heard about years ago wherein men would inject lots and lots of some kind of oil into their arms to intentionally make them look enormous like Popeye. That's exactly how the guy in this video looks. He doesn't have muscle showing just bloat, especially in his hand itself which looks like an inflated latex glove. It's probably more an intimidation technique than anything else I'd guess.
