Just saw him interviewed on Mike and Mike not to long ago. Had a good long run though! RIP

Wow 96 ! He is a great example of what we all can do if we take care of ourselves. I remember reading that when he was about 40 ( something ) he did 1000 pushups in 20 minutes. Insane !

My mom used to work out with him back in the 60s (he had a morning work-out show on TV). He's seemed to be a great guy. RIP Jack!
