Who'da thunk it?

On Friday evening, my friend and I sat down to enjoy Salute of the Jugger. As she is a real film buff, at the end I left it to play the full credits.

Suddenly a surprise hove into view - Vincent's stunt training was by - Body By Jake!

I've googled them, and they seem to be a sports and fitness company. I'm amazed that they didn't make a stink when Shibboleth came out - unless it escaped thier notice, or else they thought any publicity is good publicity.

  3. LOL!!!! No way! That was a really popular brand in the USA, in the mid to late 80's, when aerobics started getting popular.

  4. I am totally mystified - I have no idea what you are talking about. Can you elucidate? It sounds FASCINATING! ... especially if it involves Vincent's "body of work" (or "work of body").

    When I saw the word "jugger", see, I thought it had something to do with Val's bosoms again. That's all.
