As suggested by Spirit Bomb, this week we discuss the 24" pythons of WWF legend Hogan.    So how explosive are Hogan's biceps? |

Lol even though I didn't actually suggest this it's very coincidental, since I've been thinking a lot about Alex and especially Hugo from Street Fighter 3, who were both inspired by wrestlers from Hogan's era; Alex was inspired by Hogan himself, and Hugo's design was based off of Andre the Giant with his wardrobes taking inspiration from Randy Savage. Speaking of which, found an interview of ol' Rando on Youtube the other day after searching "coked up":
Modern wrestling stars like Dwayne Johnson feel like roid-abusing phonies when compared to these guys.

You telepathically communicated your wish to discuss Hogan to me. |

Hulk Hogan is awesome. I hope the rumors are true and that he'll star in The Expendables 4.

As for his biceps, they are both powerful and explosive. He worked on making them both buff and rippling, which is very hard to do. Extreme definition on display even at rest and when flexed they look bigger than my head. Quite impressive. |

People doubt the 24 inch claim, but Hogan was probably a legit 6'7 in his prime. If people can buy Arnie having 22 inch arms I can buy Hogan's arms being an inch or two bigger (even though Arnold was obviously more of a bodybuilder).

People doubt it because it's such obvious bull.  Arnold's 20+ inch arm measurements are from his competitive bodybuilding days. He was downsized by the time he was making movies. |

Hey Hogan would never lie to us. He's a real American. |

cobretti Maybe he was using one of those European measurement tapes. I heard they have different numbers.

"Well I stand up next to a mountain, and I chop it down with the edge of my hands..."
What a great intro...
I remember when he turned heel and beat the hell out of Sting for what seemed like forever. What an awesome moment. The nWo Hogan was perfect for the culture of the late 90s. In the late 80s and early 90s, he was GI Joe, and it was perfect for that time frame too. This man knows how to work the American culture for his gimmick.
Hogan rules.
