Goodbye Jack
You've certainly heard by now that the great Jack LaLanne died a few days ago. Most of us knew him in his older years when he was peddling juicers on the telly. When he was a younger man, he was quite something to look at. He was not a tall man and measured in at 5'6" (exactly my height), so he was the original pocket stud.
Thankfully Jack posed for some naked photographs so his beauty will live forever. As always, most images are larger than they appear on the blog front page so click to see and save a better version.
Striking photos from long ago; these are all new to me though. Both men were fine specimens. Question: That last photo - HOW did he get up there? - Montana Cowboy
Well, you learn something new everyday. Thanks, Will. I had no idea that Jack LaLanne posed starkers.
He was a revolutionary. At a time when such things were far from mainstream, he took it all off and showed off the beauty of the male body. Bravo.
This is all the more astonishing when you consider that Jack was a straight married man. Seemingly, he wasn't at all uptight about conventional boundaries--especially in posing with and touching another nude dude.
Anyone out there ever have it off with him? He always came across like it wasn't outside the range of possibility. Either that, or I just wanted to fuck him.
This blog is a celebration of masculinity, a tribute to the gods who walk amongst us. They are typically gorgeous, haughty, unapproachable, sometimes arrogant, and often unfortunately straight. They know we are watching them, but they usually ignore us. When they grace us with a smile, a slight nod, a word or two, we are exalted to be in their presence.
Note that many pictures here are considerably larger than they appear on this front-page screen. Clicking on any picture will reveal the much-larger source. Do it -- you'll be happy you did!

ReplyDeleteBrought a tear to my eye. Remember watching him on TV as a kid and trying to do sit-up with him. Good for him for sharing his beautiful body!
