Wrestling Scholar Posted October 2, 2019 Share Posted October 2, 2019 Just a short Vision Quest story to get everybody excited and to get out of the pre-season wrestling doldrums. So I was on Facebook and I have an old wrestling buddy who is friends with Frank Jasper "AKA Brian Shute". My buddy got an awsome autographed picture from Frank of the legendary stadium log scene. I had a little conversation with Frank, and he answered some questions. He was at 4% body fat for the movie and that log was real and weighed a 100 pounds. That kind of made my day and thought i would share it. Frank is a fitness guru and sells "Shute Shirts". Here's the link https://www.shuteshirts.com/?fbclid=IwAR0fYW0aPCLB4wqM247T6-FdX1Ydue_7fza3I15wOc38nio_E4D-W75189o . Im just curious as to how many of today's high school kids have seen Vision Quest. infowrestling 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

busstogate Posted October 3, 2019 Share Posted October 3, 2019 (edited) I read an interview Jasper that it was a real log, but hollowed out. We used to train with using 6-8 or so guys per log in the USMC and it would probably take a guy like Chris Taylor to probably even deadlift a full log or telephone pole. Japser was a legit wrestler, though. I think he was into body building at the time and had to cut a ton to get down to weight for the film. I'll try to find the article. Thanks for posting this.
