Jack LaLanne, RIP

Jack LaLanne, a physical fitness guru who attained fame in the 50s and 60s, has died at age 96.

I remember seeing his program every now and then and, even as a kid, I was impressed by his boundless energy. He went in for high-profile physical stunts, too; here are ten of them.

Jack Lalanne really was an inspirational man and not only showed people about fitness but also about life in general. I had no idea about how upbeat he was until I saw this video this morning. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CKEHWISVi9U

Funny, but I was just thinking of him the other day. Wondered if he was still around. He was amazing. What a wonderfully long life! He's probably doing pushups in Heaven.
