  • quantum leap

  • @Mar2623 I remember that episode. Sam leaped into a guy who wanted a singing career against the wishes of his dad. At the end he bets the dad that Ford will fall down the steps. It would have been funny if Sam leaped into Ford just as he was falling down the steps. Then at the bottom he gets up, and says "Oh Boy!" as he shakes the guys hand.

  • Thumbs up if that 70s show prompted you to look this up

  • Gerald Ford is only well-known for being clumsy because of the presence of a couple television cameras and bad knees. The man was ambidextrous and an accomplished college athlete. He was a two position starter on back-to-back championship college football teams and was offered a contract by the Green Bay Packers. When he joined the Naval Reserves he was actually given a post as a fitness instructor before going on active duty during WWII.

  • @prettymuchpwnage yap,haha

  • He was trying to be a big shot by not holding on to the railing.

  • Those sound effects are damn annoying.

  • @XYljin Stop ruining it and let us laugh!

  • @lsl70 LOL that's correct :)

  • @XYljin About two years ago, HuffPost did a photo montage of "Shirtless Presidents" (don't ask).

    What followed was a series of photos of our Presidents in various states of being bare-chested, old-man flab, man boobs and all, from Kennedy through Obama.

    They showed a picture of Ford standing poolside, and while he was flabby from the waist up, his calfs were JACKED! They looked like a college football player's legs; certainly not what you'd expect of a man in his 60s.

    Guy stayed in shape!
