I believe it is the same guy from 20 years ago. He has his own website at FeketeLaszlo.hu and it starts with competitions from 1988 but the last one posted was 2004 I think.

Why not Laszlo?

Odd is what ... 56 or 57 this year, and still competing at a world class level? :marv:

Fekete has to be around 50 as well ... he was in his mid 40s in the last contest I saw him in, and that was a good few years ago.

Inspiration for this 46-year-old "spring chicken"!

I remember the first WSM Laszlo Fekete was in, he was so small. He probably put on close to 75 pounds over the years, maybe more.

I'm convinced that some guys are just made of "other stuff". I've been a fairly big and strong guy my whole life but when I stood a few feet away from Odd at the Arnold I just thought to myself that he was not made of the same "stuff" as me. I've met Laszlo too and he was the same way. Just put on this earth to be strong as long as they live. Odd impresses the hell out of me, that guy is truly one in a billion.
