Paul Grant ex Mr Universe 09:53 - Dec 22 with 16874 viewsJackfath

I came across this chap when I dipped into "Pumping Iron" the homo erotic 1970s film starring Arnold and ex Hulk Lou Ferrigno on Netflix.

I was suprised on further investigation to learn he was from Swansea, moved back to Clydach, died aged 60 from a kidney compliant.

Does anyone on here remember him or did you know him?

Who was that massive black bouncer on the door of Ritzy's circa 1996? He had like a beehive haircut!

There was a small bouncer called Naz or Laz , no one messed with him as he was a tad kwon do expert and could tie bloke up in knots who were twice his size.

Yes, as others have said , I remember his gym. Another useless fact, there was a guy who lived next to me who was also in the film "pumping iron" , sadly now deceased as well.

Sometimes a strict regime involving high intensity training, quality nutrition and (of extreme importance) i.e. rest can fray patience a little.

The 'quality nutrition' that is used a lot by these guys?... Does for some reason come with personality changing effects!

Paul had a very rare kidney problem in the 1980's and was already on dialysis when he had a kidney transplant.

He worked on the door of The Penthouse for a while, and has already been said was a really nice guy - and yes his wife Christine did win "Miss Universe Bikini" in the early 1970's in London.

Edit ... The Penthouse should be The Cavalier, as it was then.
