Seeing RD's reminiscence of the workout battle between Richard Simmons, Joania Laurer, and the Warryah got me remembering a visit I paid to Warryah's old website, back in the days before he revamped his website into nothing more than a platform for his insane political ranting...well, actually he always used it for that, but I digress. Back in the day, Warryah actually had several pages on the site devoted to "fitness" and declaring what an awesome physical specimen he is. He offered not only the infamous workout tape RD reviewed, but also autographed weight lifting belts that sold for ridiculously high prices, and best of all, a personalized workout regiment audio tape. In fact, these tapes were to be so personalized that Warryah needed all kinds of personal information in order to make them. That was were the fun began...
As I seem to recall, amongst other things he asked for information that most trainers would ask, such as the potential clients height, weight, and medical history. But then it got kind of bizarre, with him asking for info like your racial background, and I seem to remember he even wanted you to send him a picture of yourself in nothing but your underwear. Just how many people actually took him up on said offer I dare not guess, nor do I dare guess what Warryah did with those pictures afterward.
I seem to recall one of my fellow crappers turned RD on to this idiocy, and he held a fund raiser to gather money for one of these tapes, which were ridiculously expensive. But, Warryah never came through with the goods and shortly after turned his attention from ranting about what a great athlete and wrestler he is to ranting about what a great politician and intellectual he is.
Anyone remember this, any details I've forgotten?
