After seeing the advertisments for the Bodyworlds exhibits, I was reminded of a French (I believe) physician who first created these types of perserved bodies in the 1700s or 1800s.

There have been several segments concerning him on the Discovery channel and the History Channel over the years. But for the life of me, I cannot remember his name, nor can I find any information on him. Can anyone help me with this? His works are displayed in a museum in France, I believe, and include one in particular called something along the lines of the Horseman of the Apocalypse.

Not being able to remeber his name is driving me nuts. Help me out, please!

I know their powers over the country were much different, but I still think Elizabeth I was a smarter, more vigorous and interesting personality. Also, I do not think that Elizabeth II would have retained her throne very long if she ruled at the time and in the manor of Elizabeth R. What do you think?

I know in our Modern times we have Vegetarian and Vegan body builders like Bill Pearl, Steve Holt, Jane Black, and Roy Helligen.
I was just wondering if they had any Greek or Roman body builders that only gained muscle mass by only eating plant based foods.

I was doing a google search for any ancient famous body builders, but no luck.
