An Amazing Gentleman

[Meshuggah]

Sadly, the article said he passed away in January this year.
His name was Hal Raker.

That's a shame. I remember the first time I saw a video of him deadlift. Amazing.

How old was he when he did the pull ups? I can't even do one and I'm only 68.

Last line of the video - 'that's an 84 year old guy.., almost'. Very impressive.

If I'm reading Teh Google right, he was also a model train repairman of seventy years standing. Apparently worked in his shop right up until the end - or pretty close, at least.
