ARNOLD: ¿HERO OR VILLAIN? ❌ The Full DOCUMENTARY WITHOUT LIES 

For all new subscribers. I would like to tell you that I am a Spanish youtuber, for whom it is difficult for me to record in English. However, due to the growth of the channel, I am already looking for workers who can help me with the voice of the videos. I appreciate all your likes. All the best

Competing since 1666. That longevity is a big part of what made him the best

5:30... "Arnold served in the Army in 1945"... Problem is, he was born in 1947... 🤦‍♂ Then in 1666 he flew to London...

I cannot comment on Arnold today, but I knew Arnold in the 1980s. We worked out at Gold's gym together. Our connection was Corvettes and weight training. I still have a photo of us and our cars together. We are the same height, but he was so massively developed that he appeared much bigger than me. I remember mad training days where there were no rules, we just pumped one weight until we could not lift another inch. We did that over and over for hours. Back then, Arnold was a very nice guy. I saw no dark side or anything like that. He was already very famous but did not act like a Hollywood bigshot. If was not for his size, fame and accent, you would think he was a regular guy. He did have one difference .. Women waited in line to be with him.

You can’t be as successful as Arnold without being utterly ruthless, selfish and driven. Same with 99% of successful people.

Any parent that abuses their child and tells them they wont amount to anything. Already sees the potential in the child and the failure and lost opportunities within themselves.

I had a father that didn't want sons. He had daughters and our mother gave birth to twin sons. We weren't wanted. My brother sent his whole life wanting to be accepted. Both my brother and I became two of the best strength and conditioning coaches of our time. In our country. My father had his favorites. Regardless my brother and I worked to achieve. And we are both recognized for our achievements

Masterful documentary about not only Arnold but how the world works

i feel incredibly incredibly Sorry for Mike Mentzer

Crazy how people still believe its actually old Arnold's Body. It's his face photoshopped onto Andreas Cahling...

Like my late British gran always said, "Never trust an ambitious Austrian."

I do find Arnold's story incredibly inspirational, but having recently learned of his bodybuilding career, he definitely wasn't all peaches and cream

A man who dreamed for more, and had the guts to go for it. Hit some bumps along the way but never stop pushing for his greater goals. No, he is not perfect and no one is, but he has positively affected and influenced millions of people to be just a little bit better. He is the epitome of the American dream.

I have been bodybuilding for 42 years it was Arnold that inspired me. I came from a town of 10,000 people. No gym. No bodybuilders. I got inspired from Arnold story. I would lose 123 pounds. Win 13 titles my latest at age 61. I would build multimillion dollar companies worldwide tied to health. Thank Mr. Schwarzenegger 🙏🙏🙏

Arnold’s was not in the army in 1945 and didn’t fly to London in 1666. Just saying. 😅

" my family was very poor " ( a photo at 14, 250lbs all muscle ) " we didn't have much "

Arnold is probably the most calculated man I have ever seen. The dude has been hitting home runs for a lifetime he was a millionaire even before he was a star. Crazy, but I always thought he stepped on others to get where he wanted..he admits it. Sylvester Stallone said he would try and ruin his rep. They hated each other at one point. I would say he is a textbook narcissist, but maybe also a psychopath

"So in 1666 he took his first flight to london to compete in the mr universe.." I had no idea Arnold was this old 🤣

The guy said "screw your freedom", truly says what he really thinks of ordinary people.

He gets people to do for him what he needs to get done for him. Bigtime. And they think it`s their own idea while he has made them think all of that. Pure genius. Plus another superrare ability: His muscle genetics.

Anyone who's surprised that a man this ambitious and successful has a dark side is needs to get it together, of course he has a dark and ruthless side? Who cares? He's hilarious, charismatic, and one of the coolest people ever.

Why didn't you mention Wag Bennet by name? Wag was an instrumental part of Arnold's success.

When Arnold proclaimed: “Screw your freedom”, that closed it.

Mike had the best form in that competition. He deserved that trophy. I don't care what anyone says.

The photo of the right of the thumbnail is Arnold's head on Andreas Cahling's body.

I respect him as a sporstsman, BB, and his will to success ...He is living legend!

Thank you for constructioning this fantastic video. You obviously put in the work, you deserve the praise. Well done 👍

If you read his book - Total Recall. Its just amazing how he was at the exact time, exact moment for each of his careers. Bodybuilding was just starting and there was no leading men with character so it was Arnod who became one. Same with movie industry, he just got in after Sly has made a few movies and having well built body was a must to become an action star.Same was with his businesses, You can read in the book the way he went through military service. There were so many lucky parts in his life. If he was born 20 years earlier, he wouldn't be where he is today, simply because of the technology. But also to say that there were 5billion more people who were living in exact same period as Arnold and they didn't benefit of all that simply because they were not visionary and didn't work hard

Arnold went to London in 1666...he's a time traveler, too! Pic at roughly 11:16 was of the Mr. O in Essen in 1972, not 1970. As for Arnold's dark past, we know that he's never been faithful to his girlfriends before Maria, or even after, if those reports are true, and they seem to be. His father joined the Naz* party because not doing so would've marked him and the authorities probably would've jailed him or done something worse. AFAIK, the elder Schwarzeneggar never participated in atrocities that the other members of hitler's armed forces did. Arnold's always been after power; that much is true. But he was never like his father and he's cultivated friends from all walks of life. He's definitely a complicated person, far from perfect, but in terms of bodybuilding, no one's done more for the sport/art than Arnold. Just my take on all this.

he was taught to be his own man , he done it , his father would be proud

Arnold's posing is just poetic. I can definitely see the ballet influences.

Amazing work bro. Thank you for your time, research and input.

1666!? His years are off. Even when he said 1975 he said “one thousand nine hundred and seventy five” bro just say nineteen seventy five!!

One of the most loved and respected bodybuilders/actors of all time. All respect and honor GONE running his mouth off. Once he hopped on social media and told people to give up their freedoms and get vaccinated, DONE.

Well done sir. Fame, glory, and accomplishments aside, he is like everyone else . Everyone has a dark side, things they wish they could change, things they want to hide and the side they portray or let everyone see. I certainly don't fault him or judge him. We all want better and how we go about it is relative to our upbringing, circumstances, and opportunities.

" SCREW YOUR FREEDOM " what a cool guy !🤔

Arnold is a success most people don't push that hard

I was a big Arnold fanboy in the 80's and 90's. I even met him and got a picture with him. But over time, my fanism has soured. He promised so much as a governor but largely failed and did nothing to clean up CA politics. In fact, it only got worse. He had no idea what he was doing and really should not have run for office. Sure, he could win an election, but then what? He needed to actually do the job. After so many years of preaching conservative poltics, he is now preaching global warming and bashing Trump who is actually DOING all the things that Arnold preached. Watching Arnold now trying to stay relevant is just pathetic. All his failures as a familiy man cannot be easily forgiven. All the years he said that he has matured and left his womanizing behind? Nope. He cheated on Maria from day one and just kept doing it. Then all the steroids. Funny, I still train and maintain a good physique in my 50's. Arnold certainly had a big influence on that. But he was a big time steroid user. He lied about it over and over. Arnold carefully decides what he lets people know about him. I guess that is his choice. But there are so many lies, I just can't really care about him anymore.

He had to escape a back water village, he had to escape a back water mentality, he had to escape a small minded future and think how can I be all I can be, achieve my potential, if the only way to do this is severe ties then cut the chains holding you back. Anyone should have control of their own destiny, knowone should make that decision for you. Arnold is a hero! Arnold isn't selfish and ruthless, he's ambitious, courageous and shrewd and he is knowbodies fool!

Great video ! Keep them coming.

If you're trying to expose Arnold, why didn't you discuss his ABUSE of the political process in California to RECALL his predecessor, Democratic Governor Gray Davis. Without framing Davis and manipulating the recall process, Arnold never would have become governor because he could not have beaten other Republicans in a primary election. Also, did you discuss Arnold's efforts to smear women he mistreated? You addressed major controversies in his bodybuilding career, but not outside it.

Goodness,,, that last public speech there at the end was just beautiful and soulfull...

In 1977, when I was 13 and always at the gym, someone said Arnold was cocky. The biggest and best bodybuilder at the gym said, "If I was that big, I'd be cocky too" To all this "Villian" crap, I say "so what?". He never said he was gong to be the Pope, he is who he is and was who he was and he shouldn't be any more repentant than any of us. Let he without sin cast the first stone.

I have always respected the bodybuilders I competed against not telling them they need more size or whatever just to get the upper hand over them . I would never put my integrity at risk for fame and fortune. Arnold apologized when he was running for Governor to the people he disrespected in the past. Arnold did reach his goals in life it seems.

"Screw your freedoms." ~ Arnold S.~

I don’t think he’s a narcissist. Narcissus are inherently unsure of themselves, he on the other hand is leaking confidence without a doubt. It’s impossible to get above certain level of success without making some questionable decisions, compromises. He was smart enough to know what he wanted but most importantly he knew what he had to do to achieve it and had guts to do so. Also he seems very conscious about everything he had done and acknowledges it - doesn’t try to say it was someone else’s fault.

Whatever Arnold is, at the end of the day he is a living legend who inspires millions. He promoted bodybuilding and fitness more than anybody. Most bodybuilders started the game after they got inspired from Arnold and not Mike Mentzer or the others. Personal lives of legends should not be taken into account.

Amazing video, amazing channel. I foresee this channel growing rapidly, keep it up!

Your thumbnail picture looked familiar to me, and I was right. That is not old Arnold, but Arnold's head photoshoped on another bodybuilder's body. His name is Andreas Cahling, and he is a living legend himself.

Thanks for this documentary. The perspective of Arnold's life provided much food for thought. I knew a fair amount before, this added excellent perspective to the complexity of the man.

OMG. that documentary was just GREAT!!!! 😁💪

There was a film made in 1977, Pumping Iron, it very clearly shows who Arnorld was. It's scary how he outplays his competitors, Arnold is very intelligent and cunning.

Wow great documentary man, you have an amazing point of and and amazing way to portray it. Definitely subscribing

Dearest Kit LAUGHLIN, Thank you for making a documentary about Arnold SCHWARZENEGGER that is accurate & absolutely true! Robert FAY in AUSTRALIA.

Mentzer was the GOAT. Uncrowned King.

This is my absolute hero. He did fantastic job throughout his life.

It's inspiring. Thank you!!

I like it how in the thumbnail the face of old Arnold is placed on old Sly‘s body.

Well done sir. I live in more of a gray area as I age trying to understand that success comes at a price, human nature balanced between the dark side and the good.

What a life He has lived much respect to his achievements in life ✌️🏋️☯️

Amazingly well put together

Great presentation + personal reflection, a very nice documentary

There are many bodybuilding champions who were great human beings. Reeves, Zane, Draper come immediately to mind. ❤❤❤

16:35 Lee Priest was also banned after competing in the Mr Universe. It’s like that with all sports. The NBA had unofficial ban on And1 Athletes. There’s a Russian league that doesn’t allow it’s athletes to compete in the NHL. Mr. Universe was actually bigger than the Olympia in the 60s. Arnold was a big part of bringing popularity to the Olympia.

Best documentary I have seen🤗.keep it up brother

Great exploration of the other side of Arnold's success that many ignore.

He actually went to his pops funeral I guess he thought it would make him seem even more determined than he already was

Really interesting take and obviously took a lot of work to put together - well done! Looking forward to watching more of your videos - new subscriber :)

I ordered the complete course offerings of Arnold Schwarzenegger. I still have them.

Brother, I really like your documentaries, you do a very good job.👌🏾

You crazy comparing Chirs Bumsted with Arnold. The amount of drugs and growth hormone todays bodybuilders take that’s unimaginable. Talking from experience as I’m a bodybuilder too. Back in the day it wasn’t like this, Arnold’s symmetry was phenomenal, classic, no one can ever beat that.

I enjoyed your documentary. There was quite a bit of footage and photos that I had never seen before which really made it enjoyable and interesting. He has had an amazing life. Is he a narcissist, probably, only those who know him would know for sure. In regards to his bodybuilding career, he truly had an aesthetic body and frame and could have been a champion on that alone. But that combined with his posing, star quality and ability to communicate made him hard to beat. Sure he wasn't as good in 1980 as he had been and maybe some of the other competitors were in top shape but they still didn't look as good as Arnold.

Arnold was NOT drinking Diet Coke in 1980. It hadn't been invented yet.

Great, really enjoyed this!

He lived the American dream and still adding to his story in life you make sacrifices to succeed

Excellent video mate 🤙🏽

I’ll never forget, as a young 10 year old girl, seeing A.S posing as Mr. Olympia -what A Sight!😮👍😀

"Screw your freedoms"

Most people love Arnold the bodybuilder, The self made man. Not the globalist Rino.

Wow this was great thank you

Great Share Thanks

Arnold was real professional is posing with flawless

At around 23:00 the host forgot to mention that people know for a fact that Arnold was the first to use the then unknown and therefore undetectable GH. He already had a "genetic" for it, as you can tell by his teeth and head. But if you take notice on those same features in his "already adult but not quite" pics, and his later Olmypia pics, he has much more spaced teeth which does not come from the actual teeth effects from GH, but for the growth of the connective tissue in your face when you take GH, that wont grow past your first "blow" of puberty until you get old, over 50, and your connective tissue do not actually "grow that much" but it doesnt shrink as much as the rest. That is why old people often have big ears, hands, feet, etc. The change in there denotes he was taking not small doses of a specific type of GH, and therefore, while not judging the use of it, I think it is cheating because others would not be aware they could. The abuse of these kinds of GH is what a while back also brought the Palumbism, which is the "next side effect" should you keep doing it and growing your use. When your organs start to grow for the use of GH, your gut gets bloated, and a lot of things get messed up because your body wasnt ready to that growth. Anyway, you can know that now, as I mentioned, because you can see in old Arnold the effects of having used GH of that type when he was young. On top of that, people know for a fact that Arnould took Methandrostenolone and Stanozolol, at the time, also, not something that anyone could just find a nice "pharmacist to buy", and when taken "correctly" if there is such thing, they will also promote a "inflated aspect" that do something before you "lose water gain": It opens your bones to look larger. This effect is normal in bodybuilders, which will look as if they have longer necks, but it is just that their traps being developed push the shoulders down. The game effect those african girls do with the rings. When you take a drug that inflates your muscles like Methandrostenolone, it forces that effect, but when you stop, it deflates the muscle, but the bone structure wont go back as it was, even if the muscle size does. Stanozolol selectively enhances the growth from certain muscle fibers, which make the strenght and thickness of the muscle develop faster. That is why it is called "powerlifter gear". That when carefully dosed with methandrostenolone, makes you see incredible "striation" and also enhances the effects of methandrostenolone in changing bone structure. All that you can see now in old Arnold as the results of those things. And I can tell as a fact that early supplements had a lot of stuff in them, as it wasnt possible to detect it, nor the "FDAs" of the World cared. While I had known whey from a long time, being a country kid, when it got to the city, it was "infused" with gear to give it power that it doesnt have. The industry quietly removed it in some cases when they got the hint that regulation was comming, while some did not. It is possible that Arnold had it without knowing ? Yes. It is possible that he never had it from youth ? No.

Arnold gained the world at the cost of his soul. Now in his old age he is reflecting and seems to not want to change it. Hopefully he will make peace with God one day.

I came from divorce and dysfunction + I can relate to his story . I was the black sheep and not the favorite but lifting is my Life and love it makes me do the right thing . I competed in Martial art's , but first started lifting running and aerobics , Dance now gymnastics 🤸🏃💃🏋️🚶🏃

Arnold’s climb from abject poverty, to what he is now - is astounding. Good for him.

You were too nice to Arnold in this documentary. Showing only lighter side of he's dark side.

Great documentary, amazing the partiality and truth of the event

Friends, This brings back memories--going to high school in the early 70's; buying every bodybuiding magazine, that I could afford; buying food supplements; working out in my garage every morning. Arnold; Joe Weider; Bob Hoffman; Dan Lurie--they were all selling a dream. It was more than 50% Snake OIL--BUY like the Lead Maltese Falcon--That was the stuff that dreams were made of. I DO believe that it was a LOT more fun Bodybuiding or Powerlifting before Arnold made weight training mainstream.

Team Mentzer!

A tale as Old as Time. It's not what you know it's who you know. If half this stuff is true none of it surprised me. But I'm still a big Arnold fan.

After my very successful father Arnold was my first role model in 1976. I also reached the top of my profession, in my case after 20yrs of hard work.

great video :)

Imo hes an 🍑 hole.went to the judges and whispered that they should have a closer look at platz arm.platz had torn a bicep muscle,but it wasnt really obvious because he hid it well .but when the "rat" AS said it to them they inspected his arm closer,they saw it and it effected his result...i mean who likes a "teller"🤷

That's not true he's not a psycho. He's just a liars 😅

This was awesome. Thanks.

A very well composed documentory.

Arnold made weightlifting popular, ordinary people wanted to be stronger . And what he has done in the cinema is amazing. Mr. X

Excellent documentary!!!
