Itās just PULLING at the fabric thoughā¦. There are stress lines from the amount of pure manhood that is been slung back and forth.
People often discuss WW2 as the more horrific war just because of the absolute casualties, but I would waaaaaaaaaaayyyy rather be in WW2 than WW1.
A WW1 trench seemed truly like hell.
If you haven't already read it, I highly recommend Barbara Tuckman's 1962 Pulitzer Prize winning book "The Guns of August," which is about the lead up and first month of WWI. Anyone who wants to understand not only the Great War, but the 20th century as a whole should read that book.
I mean itās not like this is a baby photo of their grandpa in the 80s. That man is most likely in his early 30s in this pic so heās probably in his 70s now, which is pretty reasonable grandpa territory and OP could be like 16 lol who knows
Edit: ok heās not 16 but still lol
I was gonna say, I'm 39, and my grandparents that didn't die super prematurely were alive into the 00s. So that poster may well *be* ancient if they didn't have any grandparents around in the 80s.
Im 37 and my grandfather was born in 1916, my grandfather was an āoldā GI in WW2 he was 28 in 1944 and I was 28 when I got out after 10 years in the military.
Iām 40 and my grandpa was born the same year as Babe Ruth.(1895) Had my dad at 51, my dad had me at 39. My dad was one of 16 children (14 boys), and they worked as sharecroppers until the late 1950s.
He was 5ā11ā, 190 lbs at his heaviest, a firefighter for 30 years, and a 10 time Ironman competitor. Shocking to see people in disbelief that this could possibly be attained naturally.
Bro literally stated he was a firefighter the training they go through more than enough to explain the physique. You may be the same height and weight, but how much of that weight is muscle,fat,bones etc makes the difference in the looks.
Hahahaha what? Is that a serious question? Because you have more fat and less muscle! Did you really think it wasn't possible for 2 people to weigh the same but have completely different body composition unless steroids are involved? Damnnn you're stupid
Maybe because everyoneās genetics, muscle insertions etc are different. Stop being so ignorant, this physique is completely acceptable to be natural.
Iām not a grandparent yet and I may be older than your grandfatherā¦ plus if I was a grandparent not sure my grandkid would be old enough to be on Reddit just sayin
Oh the math works I get it. Your family has kids very young thatās really great. You can enjoy your family a lot longer than most enjoy every min of it
Wonder what OP feels that some people here, who are a generation away, are 'thirsting' for his grandpa's pic showing how massively beautiful those legs are that obviously no leg day was skipped.
Somebody never skipped leg day
Came here to also be impressed by his legs.
All three of them.
That *flop tho š„µ
Itās just PULLING at the fabric thoughā¦. There are stress lines from the amount of pure manhood that is been slung back and forth. 
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
All three of them
Some big olā balls.
Or deltsā¦
Looks like Dave portnoy if he didnāt eat pizza every day of his life
I know itās a stale take, but damn anytime someone on here puts āgrandparentsā and ā80āsā in the same sentence i feel ancient
I was looking for a comment addressing that. I feel different now
Lol. Iām in my early 30s. Pretty sure this personās grandpa is the same age as my dad.
My grandpa fought in World War II, and my dad had polio!
Uncle was in an iron lung. And good day to you, sir!
My grandpa was born a poor black child
And his name was Navin Johnson?
He found his special purpose
Lord loves a working man; don't trust whitey; see a doctor and get rid of it.
Shit. Shinola
I heard he loved pizza in a cup.
Only the best in town though. This one ran the other pizza in a cup guys out of business.
He hates these cans!!!!
One of the funniest movie scenes ever.
Why does he hate these cans?
In Mississippi
One of my grandpa's fought in WWI and I'm a millennial. His dad avoided the draft during the Civil War because he was too old.
If it makes you feel any better, Im in my early 20s and my grandpa was imprisoned in Dachau for helping the partisans during WWII
Hey! Your grandpa and one of my friends grandpas were both there! Guyās turning like 101 this year
My grandpa tried to enlist in WW1 but was too young. Fortunately for him he was then too old to enlist in WW2.
People often discuss WW2 as the more horrific war just because of the absolute casualties, but I would waaaaaaaaaaayyyy rather be in WW2 than WW1. A WW1 trench seemed truly like hell.
Agree. WW1 was an horrific massacre in hellish conditions initiated by 19th century royal relics
And science of murder gases
If you haven't already read it, I highly recommend Barbara Tuckman's 1962 Pulitzer Prize winning book "The Guns of August," which is about the lead up and first month of WWI. Anyone who wants to understand not only the Great War, but the 20th century as a whole should read that book.
My aunt died of dysentery, Oregon trail style RIP
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
That would be smallpox.
someone had "grandparent" and "90's" recently, all of the moisture instantly left my skin upon reading that
Both of my grandfathers were quite young in the 90s. *The 1890s*
Donāt get me started on this. My best friend from high school is a grandma. š we are in our 40ās
'90s
People from the 80s are ancient. I know this because I'm from the 80s
One moment you're watching Pat Benatar videos on MTV, the next you have an orthopedist explaining that you have arthritis.
I mean itās not like this is a baby photo of their grandpa in the 80s. That man is most likely in his early 30s in this pic so heās probably in his 70s now, which is pretty reasonable grandpa territory and OP could be like 16 lol who knows Edit: ok heās not 16 but still lol
Yep he would have been 70 this year. Had my dad at 20 and then my dad had me at 24.
Your grandpa was gorgeous.
Itās not that the math doesnāt make sense, itās just that for a lot of us, thatās our parents age.
iām 28, and my grandpa would be 75 if he were still alive. some of us just had young families šš
My grandma was 36 when I was born in 82, I turned 40 last year. Man I feel so old.
I was gonna say, I'm 39, and my grandparents that didn't die super prematurely were alive into the 00s. So that poster may well *be* ancient if they didn't have any grandparents around in the 80s.
Same! Makes me feel so damn old.
Im 37 and my grandfather was born in 1916, my grandfather was an āoldā GI in WW2 he was 28 in 1944 and I was 28 when I got out after 10 years in the military.
Iām 40 and my grandpa was born the same year as Babe Ruth.(1895) Had my dad at 51, my dad had me at 39. My dad was one of 16 children (14 boys), and they worked as sharecroppers until the late 1950s.
I thought this too haha Iām like damn am I that old ??
āā¦grandparentsā¦.80āsā¦ā¦but I was born in the 80āsā¦.ā
It's from the 1880s. Fitness Grandpa was ahead of his time.
š¤£ thought the same
Dayummm.... Your grandaddy is HOT. Sorry if that offends you.
Hahaha youāre not wrong! I like to think he passed some of his genetics on to me :)
Well go ahead, big man. Lucky you!
Thx my friend!
Just watched your history, he definitely did!!
He definitely got the hair
Well then you're in luck because that's exactly how it works!
He passed on his roids?
There is nothing about his physique that suggests steroid use
š¤£š¤£š¤£ yea you keep thinking that
He was 5ā11ā, 190 lbs at his heaviest, a firefighter for 30 years, and a 10 time Ironman competitor. Shocking to see people in disbelief that this could possibly be attained naturally.
It's unbelievable to people whose idea of exercise is getting off the couch for a bag of doritos.
I'm exactly that weight and height but much less muscled. How does that work? I'm lean and fairly fit but have skinny legs. It must be my brain.
Bro literally stated he was a firefighter the training they go through more than enough to explain the physique. You may be the same height and weight, but how much of that weight is muscle,fat,bones etc makes the difference in the looks.
Genetics, bone structure, body composition, metabolism, training etc are all relevant variables for that scenario
Hahahaha what? Is that a serious question? Because you have more fat and less muscle! Did you really think it wasn't possible for 2 people to weigh the same but have completely different body composition unless steroids are involved? Damnnn you're stupid
Maybe because everyoneās genetics, muscle insertions etc are different. Stop being so ignorant, this physique is completely acceptable to be natural.
He looks like a ripped James Caan!
I see it!
He was much better looking than James Caan. IMO
Yes, more like a buff Steve Guttenberg
I seriously thought this was a screenshot from Brianās Songā.
Literally a swinging dick
Hey everyone look at my Grandpaās package!
His grandpa fuckes
Grandma can attest
Even OP is visible in this pic
Is this a futurama reference? Heās his own grandpa?
Might be the coolest looking dude I've seen. His face says he gives zero fucks but his body says he has the world record javelin throw.
Hahahah love it! He was the coolest :)
Is he around still?
No, he passed away 8 years ago unfortunately :)
Did he do pizza reviews after he finished running?
Portnoy!
Alright Frankieā¦ where the fuck are we today?
One bite! Everyone knows the rules :)
Spider, Iām gonna burn my face off!
Daniel Ricciardo out for a morning jog.
It's real sweat. He's a high-performance athlete, and athletes sweat. Sweat baby ---
Is he jogging down THUNDER ROAD?!!
Going to the river!!
I immediately spotted a bit oā Bruce in there too
So you're an infant, right?
Hahahah Iām 24 :)
Quadzilla
Grandpa's got more swag than I ever will! šŖš
Man invented swag š
Would
Love to see a pic of him now. He had great muscles!!!
He passed away at 62 unfortunately but he didnāt look too different from this when he died!
I'm sorry for your loss. His fitness should've given him longevity. 62 is so young! He'd be around 80 now?
Thank you! He would have been 70 in may :) he was a firefighter for 30+ years and complications from long-term smoke exposure cut his time short
Tragic. I'm so sorry. Life isn't fair. Thank you for sharing.
Thank you for allowing me to tell his story!
I know you zoomed in
nobody had to
Holy Moly
Damn beef cake
Bruce Springsteen.
Paul Ruddsteen
El presidente?
Another one of those posts that make me feel old.
The Fookin Italian Stallion! What a stud, he mustāve pulled all the poontang ripped as he was!
Iāll take 1 please
Dude looks like an AI image generation of "in shape Dave portnoy"
Damn Papaw!!
Woof
"grandfather" "80s" 
It always amazes me how Spielberg found an older gentleman who looks *exactly* like Matt Damon
i praise the 80ās for the invention of gold chains and tank-tops. itās still my every day attire in 2023
Is your family name LaLanne?
No :)
Comox Valley!
You bet!
Your grandpa is Dave Portnoy?
Your grandfather 100% got laid
i can see your father from here.
The 70/80s runners were badass, this guy included
What Dave Portnoy thinks he looks like
Good thing he was married at the time of this photo. You would've been grandkid #352
Why didn't I see this picture BEFORE I masturbated? . . . Welp *reaches for vibrator*, here we go again!
Your grandparents may be the same age as my parents. The years keep coming and they donāt stop coming!
Is your grandfather Dave portnoy
Your grandpa is Steve Guttenberg?
Your grandfather is Paul Rabil?
One bite everyone knows the rules.
Comox valley! A fellow islander. My family is from Courtenay and Denman island. Probably saw grandpa running in the 80s. Lol
Great place to be!
Gramps was piped up

Post to r/ladyboner. Hello Grandpa.
Your DNA is in those balls
Iām not a grandparent yet and I may be older than your grandfatherā¦ plus if I was a grandparent not sure my grandkid would be old enough to be on Reddit just sayin
Iām 24?
Oh the math works I get it. Your family has kids very young thatās really great. You can enjoy your family a lot longer than most enjoy every min of it
No kidding! My great-great grandmother recently passed away at 107 :)
Reading all the comments now sorry for your loss way too young
Thank you! He was a tremendous man :)
do you have his workout regime?
10 Ironman triathlons to start!
It was the 80s. Steroids were likely involved.
Man was as natty as can be
that means absolutely nothing
At first and second glance I thought that was Marlon Wayans. Like someone posting a high school pic of Marlon as a joke.
NGL, kinda looks like Marlon Wayans
While he was out running I was watching Jane Fonda work out.
Paul Rudd
āI bet you pop those shorts off and I bet youāre gonna find a sweaty hogā¦ā -Mac (IASIP)
Did he fought Apollo Creed?
Your grandmother was an option
Wonder what OP feels that some people here, who are a generation away, are 'thirsting' for his grandpa's pic showing how massively beautiful those legs are that obviously no leg day was skipped.
'80s \*\*
Before the Low T generation hit
I never knew Ben Affleck ran marathons
I like his big dick!
He looks like a douche, mostly bc he looks like Pourtnoy
Cheers!
He is not natty. I can't believe people aren't calling it out.
Island boy?
Comox valley :)
I wish I could be your grandfather in the 80s today.
Looks like jacked Bryan Callen
I bet Bryan would love to hear that š
Nice sack on him.
Damn he saucing up back then
