It seems to me there are countless posts on whether or not Crazy George can straighten his arm. I personally can't say whether he can or not because I simply do not know.
With the ranking and history of Crazy George. As well as all of his victories. Why would he not post a quick video of himself straightening his arm? All the people who don't believe he can straighten it and the rest that don't know, would simply have proof right there. Post a quick video straightening the arm all the way. Straighten it with the hand pronated, then again supinated, and then once more neutral.
If I had the same success on the table as Crazy George I certainly would post a video to prove myself. There's no reason not to, and there's everything to gain. If he doesn't have a way to video it, someone else certainly could for him.
Like I said I don't know whether it will straighten or not. But it would seem logical and smart to just post a simple quick video of it. I have my own thoughts on the matter but rather than argue one way or the other, I thought this was a better topic.

I could care less. We have heard people say he can straighten it. I disagree w u. He really has NOTHING to gain from it. Obviously he finds it amusing that people have controversy over him as he should. He already wins, what more is there to gain? Thats my 2¢…

Nice first post.  There might be footage out there of him doing this but why would he bother to prove anything to anyone with a new video? Besides, him not showing his arm straight, adds to the Enigma. |

I think we have enough videos of him/his opponents NOT straightening his arm ON THE TABLE and that is what matters. Pullers need to find other ways to win George.

Christian BInnie and MIke West both claim to have seen him straiten his arm. On one of the old infocus Bob Brown claims he got with George and said let's dispel the rumor and show me you can straiten your are and he could not, Bob said they both put their are on a wall to see who could straiten it further and Bobs was strait er only by a little I'm not calling anyone a liar just saying what I have heard, at this point as long as he is within the rules......who cares  ......btw George is not the only one out there using this technique he is just the most successful at it |

Obviously he finds it amusing that people have controversy over him as he should. He already wins, what more is there to gain? Thats my 2¢… Would the #1 ranked arm wrestler in any particular class find it amusing for people to have controversy over them? Perhaps whether or not they roided? Is controversy over someones legacy amusing? If a non-ranked puller pinned the #1 or #5 ranked arm wrestler, would he not want proof? Or you think he would want controversy for amusement? The legacy and accomplishment not as important as the amusement of controversy over his accomplishment? If Geoges St. Pierre for example was getting accused all over the place with roiding between title defenses. Would he not want to submit a test to the athletic commision? |

One of his training partners was going to post a picture. But he never did.

They DO TEST between defenses. If georges technique was illegal it would be different. Its not. His LEGACY ISNT IN QUESTION. Maybe just your opinion of him is in question....
The controversey will never take away the FACT that he has won the arnolds how many yrs in a row ? 8....9...... regardless of whos been in attendance.

The the thread starter and anyone else wanting to see a video of him straightening his arm.... Why? good question, its not illegal to not be able to straiten your arm,Bob Brown can't, Michael Todd can't sooo although there is a rule that about the shoulder dropping belowe the elbow pad while in the losing position and that doesn't get called I would have to go to the rulebook to find the word for word but its in there...hasn't stopped him yet......it is what it is a dead issue |
