I’ve been 100% captivated by bodybuilding for the past two years, i’ve learned that it’s all that i ever want to do. My dad has supported me unconditionally all the way, and his support has had such an impact on my happiness i can’t even explain it, but this comment explains it perfectly!
Yeah I was ready for a standard parental support story; I was not ready for Dad actually going down to the basement like an Asian mom supervising their kid's piano practice. It seems Tom really inherited a lot of determination the way he responded to the weightlifter's attempt to get rid of him as an elementary school kid with an absurd request by actually coming back with the shoes! I love stories like that.
Tom platz is such a class act. He had every right to be outraged, to hate, and to call out those who wronged him. Yet in spectacular fashion, goes and takes the high road, not a single ounce of bitterness in his words. How I wish Mentzer approached his problems the same way
Bro you have 4 videos and all of them are viral, you came and you conquered. All i can say is you have content for years as you can make every bodybuilder into this
I met Tom Platz back in July 2023 by pure accident at a belt signing event at a local supplement shop near where I live. Him and I had an intense 30 minute conversation, and it still makes me smile and emotional when I think about it. He truly made me feel seen and that I mattered. Someone he had never met before, heard me and understood me. Every word he speaks is meticulously thought out, and laced with inspiration. There’s a warmth and kindness in his eyes and his smile that make you feel comfortable. He’s the kindest, most genuine person I’ve ever met. I’m forever grateful for meeting him, he’s a once in a lifetime champion on and off the stage.
I truly admire his mindset and how he dealt with it, just imagine if Mentzer had the same mentality and didn’t outright quit, pretty sure he would’ve won it sooner or later
@@Iron.HistorianTom said in an interview how he saw Mike take the loss of the Olympia to heart, and never recovered. Mike had demons sadly. Tom was clearly such a positive force. And still is now 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻 great videos bro
@@Iron.HistorianI agree...we would be talking about the Mentzer era today. Arnold didn't help when he talked about Tom's bicep injury which hurt his placing later on.
I was in a hardcore old-school gym in the late 70s and one guy passed around a photo of Platz doing his famous leg pose. It was amazing back then that such development could exist. No one had ever seen anything like it.
@@thinkforyourself2109 to me he had the best leg development in bodybuilding still till this day better legs than some off the bodybuilders we have now they was a video on UA-cam who had better quads Tom platz or big ramy and everyone choose Platz best legs ever and I can do his squat technique all quad dominant
Damn bro imagine seeing a guy squat 500 pounds for 5 reps thinking that was impressive, then the following week see him do it for 50 reps because he “felt it”
Arnold really tried destroying lot of honest hardworking people. I used to love Arnold like anything, but the more I am learning, he is losing to the bare minimum respect.
36:44 - Tom was definitely one of the very first in the industry to recognize the potential for huge corporate marketing sponsorship. No one holds a Coke THAT conspicuously without intent 😂
Such a good video. I have always identified with Tom the most out of all the golden era pros. I have so much respect for the guy. I think about his workouts often when I'm in the gym.
of all the body builders throughout history i like listening to tom the most. its like he cant contain his passion for bodybuilding, its mesmerizing to me.
Exactly. You should have been a judge there. Platz will always be the best in my book. I started in my teens and had to quit for an umbilical hernia that I had from birth that surfaced with the training, then life got in the way time and time again, I never founf the time. I'm 50 now, in erly retirement from work, and a year back in training. Platz is still my #1 inspiration, then perhaps Rich Gaspari who also is still built. I'm just doing this because I owe it to myself, I'm gonna be the best built female natty in my 60s, in honour of Platz.
His passion and attitude for bodybuilding and life itself is contagious! Tom helped me become a better person and have bigger legs. Long live the Golden eagle!
These documentaries are great love the style and superb narration. Truly the first I've seen of such quality. Also, the fact that PED use is mentioned as a given is great as well. No BS and very forthcoming. That's what this sport needs. Regarding the subject, Platz has been a great ambassador for bodybuilding ever since I can remember. Very humble guy with a great physique.He deserved to place above Franco as Franco was showcasing what untreated gyno looks like. That should never be rewarded on an Olympia stage. It everyone knows the sport has always been riddled with politics and even more so back in the day. The Golden Eagle is for sure the people's champion
I love your few videos so far. I have been finding myself checking your page once a week to see if you uploaded yet. I love these long form videos on the history of a hobby or figure I am obsessed with. Keep up the bodybuilding and gym history videos man!
Is that your voice??? You sound like a professional voice actor with decades of experience! Another high-class documentary, if this was a docu tv-series, it’d be worth an Emmy! ❤
@@Iron.HistorianI know seeing the video off Mike very intelligent bodybuilder but he carried the bitterness towards the end which caused him to die rip
Amazing video... I saw you post it when I was at the beach hotel and couldn't wait to watch it! You never disappoint and it was just so energising and awesome I was just getting something wanting to be released from the inside. The urge to already be at my peak on stage and inspire people, pose with ALL MY HEART. No other video had made me feel the same way as I just did now. I had the thought of becoming a bodybuilder the past few days maybe a week and a bit max... Thought was always in my head but after this video... I'm sure of it. I'll help people, inspire them, give advice and come in my unique way to the stage. Mark my words... If i dont make it with the other things I wanna be in life I will always have a plan B... Either I achieve both, or still achieve greatness and one cant be achieved without the other now that I think of it. I just need to make one thing work then im guaranteed to succeed in life... I'm currently on my biggest downfall of all and stress is getting the better of me, but I will rise up from this i won't give up like Kevin Levrone didn't... "Maybe your life isn't falling apart, maybe its falling in place" -Kevin Levrone Chase your dreams never procrastinate and always have a CLEAR GOAL. "Have the clear vision. Know what you want to become and chase it. Be willing to do anything to get there" -Arnold Schwarzenegger
That’s a champion’s mindset you have right here, if you keep it up I’m pretty sure you’re gonna make it sooner or later. I wish you the best of luck with everything, and remember what Tom used to say “the only place to go from failure is to win”. This quote has helped me personally multiple times. So the only way to go for you now is up. You got it 💪 ❤️
@@Iron.Historian Your replies really help me feel supported and open my eyes. I want you to know I deeply appreciate them... The words really touched my heart a lot. Even after hearing that tom platz quote for ages I now realised my position thanks to you. So the only place to go from here is to win... I also wish you good luck brother pursue whatever it is you desire and never give up on your goals, never procrastinate or doubt your own limits. By the way for the next video I think Kevin Levrone will be very inspiring and motivating. Also a really great story so if you find enough material to structure a video I will be eager to watch it as soon as it comes out. Definitely the most underrated youtube channel atm.🫶💪
Man, further the video goes the more I start to hate Arnold for his bullshit behavior. The fact that Arnold told the judges about the torn bicep was a scummy move from him
Tom is a class act for being that kind to Franco. He was totally undeserving of that win. Even Arnold was more deserving of the 1980 win compared to Franco in 1981. Nothing on Franco looked amazing. His chest looked horrible. I’m not sure if he was knocked down points for his leg injury but he should have been if not. I really wonder why Arnold told that to the judges. Franco wasn’t competing and Tom never said a bad word about him. I sometimes wonder if Arnold is sociopathic.
My favorite bodybuilder and straight shooter. Needs his own movie, he is the American Dream, he makes you feel like you can do more of anything. He’s the man!!!
@@heronvega25rhabdo is basically when you destroy the muscle so much you get no gains. Your body goes from “let’s make this stronger” to “let’s salvage what we can to get it back to normal.”
Tom Platz - the most overrated bodybuilder of all time. He impressively shows that no matter how stupidly wrong your training is, you can still achieve your goal with anabolic steroids and the right genetics.
Tom Platz what a fantastic humble guy and with integrity and human class he might not have been the best bodybilder but he was great! and left his legacy in this sport with honorn I salute him absolutely!
@@Iron.Historian The best legs in the business and he should have won over Frank Columbo especially after Fraco broke his leg it seems it is like in politics a rigged outcome very sad who can we trust?! anyway it was a very interesting video absolutely thank you.
The whole channel and the way the Docs are edited and put together. It‘s really world-class‘ - Love the channel and hope there are many more documentaries to come! 💪🏻
I don't know your name, but you have a knack for documentaries. One thing I appreciate was the stableness of it. No harshness, no annoying music too. Great. God bless you and your work. Amen?
Tom is my all time favorite body builder and no one can ever replace him, he was indeed ahead of time with the things and concepts he did, absolutely amazing. Goes to show not all heros wear capes and not all champions have a medal to prove that they are. Arnold did those guys so dirty but you can't cry over spilled milk, whats done is done but Tom will forever be one of the greatest bodybuilders of all time. Absolutely legend video iron, i appreciate what you did here.
I've been waiting for you to upload again, and I'm not disappointed. Top quality documentaries, quickly becoming one of my favourite channels! Keep it up!
![Tom Platz Seminar | Body Power Studio [UNCUT]](/img/n.gif)
Do you think Tom should've won in '81? And who would you have in top 3?
Tom or Padilla should've won, Franco would be lucky to even be top 5 imo
Tom definitely should've won, and Padilla should've got second
Tom robbed time and time again! The peoples champ for sure, what a great guy.
I hope the young kids watch your videos man. 70s through 1995 were the true era of body building.
It's a different beast now. The magic is gone.
I should’ve won and I was 8 back then.
Amazing how a father who supports his kid’s dreams can have such a profound impact on not just their kids, but the whole world.

Awsome point!
Indeed
very well said 👏🏻
I dont think it is possible to describe how badly platz was screwed in 81. Its actually amazing that the olympia still exiats after 80 and 81.
I think this Olympia was worse than 1980
@Iron.Historian I do, too. 3rd place to two guys he was better than in every way. Columbo shouldn't have even been in the top 8 with his legs.
So true! You would think after 1980, they would have corrected themselves
@@iamcorneliu1097 true but they went to the extreme , like oh you didn't like what we did in 80 , well watch this , unbelievable corruption
@@iamcorneliu1097got even worse with the end of yates
He made the most of his potential. He didn’t leave a thing on the table. The uncrowned king indeed.
👑👑
Kevin also Uncrowned king.
As much as Arnold did for the sport, he sure did corrupt these years with his influence... Thank you Tom Platz for what youve done!
Everyone leave me alone... The Iron Historian is back with another banger!!!

It seems like Tom’s parents were extraordinary, especially for the time, to be so supportive of his aspirations.
Please never stop with those documentaries, those are high class and absolutely astonishing
Thanks a lot! All of your support keeps me going 😁
@@Iron.HistorianCan you chronicle the end of one era and the beginning of a new era...the end of Haney's era and the dawn of the Yates era?
Robbed by Arnold and Franco, was an absolute disgrace what they did to Tom
I truly admire his mindset and how he dealt with it, just imagine if Mentzer had the same mentality and didn’t outright quit, pretty sure he would’ve won it sooner or later
@@Iron.HistorianTom said in an interview how he saw Mike take the loss of the Olympia to heart, and never recovered. Mike had demons sadly. Tom was clearly such a positive force. And still is now 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻 great videos bro

@@Iron.HistorianI agree...we would be talking about the Mentzer era today. Arnold didn't help when he talked about Tom's bicep injury which hurt his placing later on.
Definitely not robbed by Arnold, Franco? definitely, but Arnold had it in a stronghold for obvious reasons.

@@AndyVegandi Theres already one on his channel.
@@AndyVegandiwell then your in luck
Even though he was at his peak 40 years ago, he still has the best legs in history.
Yes 💯💯 his legs were much more defined and more muscle mass more than big ramys best leg development ever
I think jay cutler did
I was in a hardcore old-school gym in the late 70s and one guy passed around a photo of Platz doing his famous leg pose. It was amazing back then that such development could exist. No one had ever seen anything like it.

The man with the titan joints... Can't believe he's still relatively healthy.
Especially is knees with squatting best legs ever in bodybuilding
Damn bro imagine seeing a guy squat 500 pounds for 5 reps thinking that was impressive, then the following week see him do it for 50 reps because he “felt it”
“Honey wake up. A new bodybuilder documentary dropped!”
🔥🔥💪
Ha ha ha 😂
🤝🧐
Does she phinger herself to em😂
And that's why Arnold became a politician. He knew what he was doing.
Yup. Liar, cheat, narcissist, etc etc. All traits needed to be a politician
Such a good person. Respectful, bright, well spoken, kind, and ready to out work everyone. An inspiration.
Ive been here since day one. And after years of youtube, this is my favorite youtube channel.
I love u 🥺
Firts time here already subscribed nice content
You honor Tom Platz with this outstanding doc. Thanks dude.
Thank you! Would be awesome if he watched it 👀
This is by far the most complete Tom Platz documentary. I didn't know the story with this much detail. Well done. Thank you.
Glad you enjoyed it 😄
Arnold really tried destroying lot of honest hardworking people. I used to love Arnold like anything, but the more I am learning, he is losing to the bare minimum respect.
Arnold has always been out for himself and unethical.
A shit actor with a crap accent😅
Yup. Don't know how so many people still think he was a nice guy & humble😂@@Connery007neckache
There’s a reason why he was so successful as a republican politician lol
His father would be extremely proud of the man Arnold turned out to be lets put it that way
Quadzilla was Paul Demayo. Tom Platz IS known as the Quadfather.
🤌🤌🤌
Your vids are vids i look forward to for weeks
Thanks a lot! I appreciate that 🙏
Of all the days that Iron Historian could have dropped this video, he dropped it on leg day! Bravo, sir! 👏
You have to achieve failure!
@@Iron.Historian i just did. cried, not able to run nor jump without almost kicking my face to the ground. thanks platz
I can say Platz is the only bodybuilder in history that has not changed his intensity after decades of body building.
The quality of this documentary is better than everything i watched on tv. Hats off to you my man. Respect!
These thumbnail designs have a distinct characteristic to them. When I see it, I know which channel is dropping right away. Fantastic!
