A Bit about Arnold Schwarzenegger

'font-style:italic;' class='tvbyline'>by Danny Hoover

The Austrian Born Actor and start of the Terminator movies, is none other then Arnold Alois Schwarzenegger. He was the second born son in his household and grew in to bodybuilding at an early age. His father was a police officer and as such he had a very strict childhood.

Like his father, Arnold grew to love sports and even in his earlier childhood years he had the ambition to become a body builder. It was when he was only 15 that he joined a local soccer team and began building his muscles. By the time he was 18, he went off to serve his country and began focusing on a stricter diet.

In the army, with the continuation of exercise and the new focus on diet, Arnold was growing at a whole new rate. He chose to enter into the 1965 Mr. Junior Europe competition and won it. After this first body building win, there was no turning back. In years to come, Arnie’s movies would come to dominate the action section at Netflicks.

Over the next couple of years, Arnold would go on to enter and win a number of contests including that of the 1968 Mr. Universe competition. He was even the winner of the Mr. Olympia competition 6 times and would have had a 7th win if Sergio Oliva had not won.

Wanting to try his hand in other talents, Arnold Schwarzenegger headed off to Hollywood to become a star. His first movie was Hercules Goes to New York which debuted in 1970. His 1976 performance in Stay Hungry even got him a Golden Globe.

He was in a number of films and none of them really did any good until his appearance in the film Terminator which debuted in 1984. After that he got a number of great roles such as Total Recall, Kindergarten Cop and even Twins - and you can get all his movies from Netflix dvd rental.

It was in 2003 that Arnold Schwarzenegger won the election for Governor of California. His victory featured a 3.4 million voter margin that was in his favor. In 2006, he ran again for re-election and stayed in the highest position in the state.

From Austrian born to American Politician and a little bit of ruling the universe somewhere in between, Arnold Schwarzenegger truly has had a very long and eventful life that has spanned a number of decades and even several countries at all points of the globe.
