Sesame Street Muscle....

[color=red]Although it's an unlikely source, I do recall a muscle growth example on Sesame Street :[/color]
[color=red][/color]
[color=red]It was an animated thing, probably no longer than a thirty second commercial. [/color]
[color=red][/color]
[color=red]- A tall dude walks onscreen and does a double-bi. His biceps/pecs bulk out a little with some definition, and a woman's voice says "big!"[/color]
[color=red][/color]
[color=red]- A second shorter dude walks on, and stands next to him and does a double-bi. His biceps/pecs bulk out quite a bit more with more definition. Then the same voice says "Bigger!"[/color]
[color=red][/color]
[color=red]- A third really short dude walks on, and does the same thing. But this time, everything gets friggin' HUGE! Each muscle was drawn/animated with detail, and so much size that his head disappears except you can see his eyes and hair. The voice says "BIGGEST!" Then, the guy falls to his side, end over end whilst flexed, and ends up upsode dpwn.[/color]
[color=red][/color]
[color=red]This recounting may not be entirely accurate, and it was animated. However, I'm 27 now. And I remember the milk ad where the kid's head turns into a balloon at the end. THIS instance was well before the "Does a Body Good" ads. As I think back to it, I now realize that I've had a muscle fetish from a very early age. Any thoughts? Does anyone perhaps remember this besides me........?[/color]

And as per usual they painted a negative view of bodybuilding (if my memory serves me right back in the late 70's) and then they wonder why children reaching their teens in the late 80's became overweight in the millennium!

Lover_Boy,

It's so funny that you bring up that Sesame Street clip since I vividly remember seeing that same sequence when I was a kid!!

Doesn't anyone have a movie clip or a gif of that skit? I'm anxious to know!

hunksquared · #5 March 2nd, 2006, 11:56 AM

Sorry for bumping a really old thread, but when I was browsing YouTube, I came across the video. Then I suddenly remembered this thread. So, after 8 years, here you go:
