Well, this is pretty much every nightmare I had from ages 15 to 23 ... make of that what you will.

He's Just Your Average Octogenarian Bodybuilder Who Will Not Die
Hmm. Yes, I guess this could technically be categorized as "Nightmare Fuel" but at the same time, there is something comforting in the fact that 80-year-old bodybuilders like Ray Moon do exist.
