The 1983 Mr. Berlin Vince Taylor started off in the light-heavyweight class, but a few weird things happened. He crashed his car - twice - on the way to the venue. He was too late to enter as a light-heavy, but they let him compete as a 170lbs. heavyweight and he ended up winning the whole thing.
Vince Taylor became one of the greatest professional bodybuilders of all time, winning more GPs than any other champion. He also won many Sandow awards as Masters Olympia winner where he was virtually unbeatable.
Vince Anthony Taylor is an icon in bodybuilding, the current Guinness Book of World Record Holder for the most IFBB bodybuilding wins
