Local strongman dead at age 27
Seattle Times ^ | 7/30/07 | Seattle Times staff

SEQUIM — Jesse Marunde, who long aspired to be the world’s strongest man, died suddenly this week at the age of 27.

Mr. Marunde, who was born in Glennallan, Alaska, but raised in Sequim, collapsed and died Wednesday night while working out at his gym in Sequim.

Chuck Marunde said his son died of a heart attack. Autopsy results will be known in about a month.

Mr. Marunde made an international splash in the weightlifting world with a second-place finish in the World’s Strongest Man competition in China in 2005. He won a local strongman event this spring in Sequim, and won the 2001 Washington Strongman contest, among many other events. He was 6 feet 5 and weighed about 300 pounds.

His 2007 death was too long ago for the clot shot. But Hillary suicide pandemic was already well underway.

I just don’t understand why free republic has turned into the obituary page. Yes well known people and celebrities are fine. But obscure nobodies should not be part of it.

Here is my reference.

When I was in college we used to work out in the weight room. One of my classmates was Ted Arcidi—he was a world class power lifter and future WWF guy.

When Teddy worked out he used all of the 45 pound plates in the room. If you wanted to do heavy squats, you had to wait until Ted was done with his bench presses. (And you actually would stop and watch him because it was amazing.)

The muscle head didn’t take care of the most important muscle of all ♥️

Probably shot up steroids too like most of them do

No one is denying that young people occasionally died suddenly, but it seems that it happens a lot more often these days.

Boy those doctors performing autopsies work at a snails pace.

Perhaps steroids but this was pre covid jabs thus not that. Perhaps something else. The man was a towering mass of muscle.
