I have a tremendous passion for fitness, I love challenges and I am a very driven guy.

I think Eric Bana would be a good Superman. He's got that look. I think he'd be a great Superman.

Close to birth... I lost, like, 80 percent of my hearing, and I had difficulty speaking.

I know right a way there's a person that's very insecure; that he's trying to out do me. And, ah, like I was saying before, if you give one-hundred percent of your best, and you may have fault, but there is nothing you can do, because you gave one-hundred percent.

The Hulk was the beginning of me, a platform as an actor to grow.

Believing in myself and not to be afraid of taking any risks. I have to be better than the average person to succeed. That’s why I chose bodybuilding. If I became a world champion, if I could win admiration from my peers, I could do anything.

I have the largest collection of Hulk memorabilia in the world - everything from toilet paper, wallpaper, bicycles - all boxed up at my house in Northern California. I've had it for so long, I think it might be time to sell it.
