Arnold Schwarznegger is one of the greatest. GOAT because of the proportions of his body. Relentless training. Acting in some of the most well-known films, like Terminator 1, Conan the Barbarian and then Terminator 2.
He believed in what was possible.
When he started acting he was pressured to change his accent by film studios. He refused and believed that one day, it would contribute to him becoming a leading actor.In the 1970s, he was noticed for his height and phsique. It was his unique, physicality that made him stand out, and contributed to making him one of Hollywood’s best actors.
He was determined to believe in his goals winning Mr Universe in 1978. He was a wrestler, a weight-lifter and made the sport approachable and popular. He also made weight lifting an appreciation for the anatomy for the masses.
He was first photographed by Albert Busicki.
He became a great action hero but always wondered if Terminator could be the good guy. He wanted less killing and got his dream when making Terminator 2. Terminator 2 became a protecting machine. He didn’t kill anyone.

As an individual, his sensitivity is what is important. He always felt that he had a mission. He said, “I swear I will not kill anybody.” It was to become one of the highest grossing films.
Jim Cameron, Director and writer of the first Terminator machine, said it was the first AI machine talked about in the 80s. These machines were self-aware. “It’s now real, and not just futuristic.”
Arnold has also travelled extensively around the world to many cities and more recluse, hidden environments like the Amazon rainforest. He visited the Amazon River and met an Amazonian tribe. He saw a natural aspect of being hidden, in the way that they lived. He believes in protecting the rainforest, and he was met with the chanting of “Arnold” by the tribe. He realised that even there he was considered a warm personality.
In his 76 years, he has a career that has spanned action, sport, comedy and politics. He is a reformer and activist.
He feels like a citizen of the world. Arnold is a peace-keeper with ideals of co-operation and solidarity.
