That was a very informative and interesting video. Thanks again
Nick, thank-you
Great video, Nick. Excellent work.
good fucking shit
Bb is not the same as it was. Bodybuilders hang out with each other they was friends. They drink work out together what happen to bb. It not what it use to be unlike the good ole days
Wow…..excellent video. Best one yet. Two thumbs wayyyy up. How about a video on Greg Deferro?
Fellow Aussie … nice .. the corvette story was before Arnold first came to Aus to guest pose at the 72 Mr Qld he saw a pic of the corvette with Robert and Arnold asked him did people drive sports cars on the beach surrounded by kangaroos .. also apparently Robert has a heap of un released Arnold photos as well..
Arnie looks LIT in the photo at 3:00!!!
Yo! Nick's Strength and Power! I just subscribed to your channel. After watching about 6 of your videos in a row I was hooked. I grew up lifting and have always loved bodybuilding and of course growing up as a kid Arnold was my role model. Your videos are the best, great detailed, unbiased, fantastic content, wonderful job at breaking things down and explaining. Keep up the good work man, you got a new fan! Hey just for fun and to throw in a humorous, laid back video do "What if Steven Seagal was a bodybuilder". And when someone says who in the hell asked for this video, you can say, That's What She Said!
What's Robert up to nowadays?
I have to be honest, I can remember seeing that guy in photos and wondering who he was. He was a true renaissance man, dammit, that guy does everything! Talk about bein' in the right place at the right time huh? Arnold has always been shrewd and he, no doubt, recognized what a good photographer could do for him (not a negative statement about Arnold) and Arnold has always loved the ladies as well (they say) so maybe Robert Nailon was an excellent wing man and hooked the big fella up. However it all came together he must have been diggin' the whole situation. Hangin' out and workin' out with the great bodybuilders of the Golden Era, takin' what would become iconic photos and gettin' paid to be there would be far out. That's the stuff dreams are made of and just think of the ladies that would be hangin' around! Yes sir, yes sireee! …………………………..PEACE!!
Arnorl is just on another level
Robert is a great guy. Knew him from Sydney. Very cool character
Superb video, thanks. The pic of Arnold at .30 should shame anyone that said he "didn't have legs".
Wow, never knew this..
He had great abs!
Robert trains at thr same I train at, Hotbodz. He still trains harder then most people. Actually spoke to him a few days ago. He has so much knowledge of training, diet etc
where is vince ? why didn't offer a contract to nailon jet?
Frank Zane looks like 70's rocker in the photo with all those hair and beard
How about one on Vic Downes from Canada used to eat 25 eggs a day to get muscular.
Photography, bodybuilding, Corvettes… Nick is Robert Nailon!
Zane looking better off season
Yeah… Arnold would barely fit in a Stingray LOL. Doubt he'd own one. I'm 6' and it was close quarters for me
Nick you do a great job with these videos.
even arnolds photographer had some muscle body…
I knew who he was, but not in depth like this.
Well done.
So is that Arnold Collection a book ? Most of those pics he has for sale on the site can be found on line. .
He had a Monaro GTS god damn Straya represent

Great video. Nicks channel is the only place to learn about guys like this.
Is the lady at 3:14 Maria Shriver ?
KELSO ! ….YOU JACKASS….JACKIE HATES YOUR GUTS !!!!
Excellent informative and interesting video. You do a very comprehensive history of the Golden Age of Bodybuilding and I appreciate your work. Keep it up 🙂
Arnold hated getting into my dads Vette – he didnt fit properly 😀
Its an honour to see a video on my dad!
