Ha! At his height, I think he'd have to have been a fair bit heavier to have them.

I've got a good buddy with a 20" arm. He's 5'9" and 250.

The idea of the amount of weight I'd have to carry to have a 20" arm at 6'2" is unreal.

Yes, it's a lot. I know from personal experience. At 270-275 I was about 18.75 inches. 20 inches required nearly 40 more pounds.
