Is it true that body builders have to use a special stick to wipe their butts?!
Question: I've heard that some body builders' arms get so muscular that they can't reach around and wipe their butts normally. This means they have to use a special 'stick' wrapped with toilet paper. Is this true?

It's possible that this can happen, though I'm not 100% sure on the body-builder part. It's obviously possible in the extremely obese, though. I've heard of it with sumo wrestlers specifically, too. It's hard to really get a straight fact on it, though--this isn't something that comes up in reputable sources very often! It isn't going to come up with someone in the normal state of affairs--you have to hit the point of super-extreme weight issues for this to happen.
Try wrapping yourself up in blankets and touching your butt. There is a point where you just can't do it. You arms aren't long enough or your can't fold them properly enough.
Have you ever worked out to the point where you just can't bend your arms fully anymore? I haven't (I'm not a body builder) but I've had friends in that predicament. It's temporary, but imagine how embarrassing it would be to be in that situation, and simply unable to wipe your own bum.
You could try to reach down from the front, but for the extremely obese, even that won't work--their bellies would get in the way!
haha. i never really thought of that.
nice one.
