Nice to see this channel pop up here on Tildes... I thought I was the only person here who watched Natty Life. He does some truly incredible mini-documentaries on strongmen (and women) throughout the ages, and bronze/silver-age bodybuilders. Highly recommend checking out some of his other videos if you enjoyed this one!
