[@jakobwithak3805]

You can really see how awesome Arnold is when talking about the wall. You can see he takes pride in it even when it's something so simple.

[@youtubecommentscritic6058]

+Jakob Krebs Not really, lol. I know what you mean, but it's fascinating to me because he is worth $470 mill (pre-divorce), and he knows and enjoys manual labor. I don't know how to build a wall and I know few people who know how to do any construction. My father is a businessman just like Arnold, yet I would see him around the house all the time reconstructing the chimney, the stairwell, or whatever other project he'd be working on during his weekends. I have a lot of respect for men who have authority, but by no means hesitate to get down and dirty with everyone else.

[@navarredr]

Read his book, if you haven't. Great read. All of this is well described within.

I remember Ed Corney training over World's Gym in San Jose. He talked about when he trained with Arnold. These guys were the best. RIP Franco Columbu and Ed Corney.

[@Fancylooks]

The cloudy weather adds to the nostalgia feeling, what a fantastic video. I love to see people's reaction when they see him, the policeman, the tourists..., and everything is great, the wall he built with Franco, the skull ring he is wearing, the plaster on his hand with a bit of blood, maybe because of the glass on the wall.. that was a funny story... and the histories he tells about his friend and the way they trained... fantastic document

[@NemeanLion-]

This really needs to be a weekly documentary, where Arnold walks around, meets people, talks about experiences, etc. It might last only one season, but I think it would get a better reception than people think.

[@Vebinz]

Such a wonderful video! There are very very few Hollywood stars that are as personable and lovable as this man.

[@WalkingPlatonic]

Indeed, after seeing this I finally understand why people find him so charysmatic.

[@CHUCKSTlCK]

Three observations: 1). I like how much of a cornball Schwarzenegger has been, not taking himself too seriously (the jokes here, Undercover at Gold's, Bud Light Super Bowl commercial) since leaving office and his marital issues. Can't let change and mistakes of the past hold you back. 2). The way he talks about training, the old days, and the respect he still has after all these years, movies, and politics for his friends and former competitors like Franco, he's still passionate about bodybuilding. 3). The wall he and Franco built. He didn't move to America to get into masonry, he moved here to be a bodybuilder. Construction was what you or I might consider one of those "shit jobs" we work like retail or waiting tables while pursuing what we really want, be it school, art, or whatever. The fact that he included that wall here shows the pride he has in his work, no matter how meaningless or trivial it may seem. Some days I have that, most I don't.

[@Wildicon19]
