The Armwrestling Legend Cleve Dean
Luther Cleve Dean (born 15 December 1953) was a professional armwrestler from a town
called Pavo in Georgia, USA. He died on 10 May 2011 at the age of 58.
Cleve was set apart from other armwrestlers by his brute, farm-raised strength.
Young Cleve wasn't strong from hours in the gym but manual labor. Many news articles of the
day described how he could "pick up a full-grown hog under each arm." In 1980,
he did explain to People Magazine that he felt he owed his strength and skill to growing up
on his father's hog farm. "When you farm like us,” he says, “you use all your muscles.”
In 1985, the LA Times reported that "sometimes just for fun he would pick up the rear end
of his 7 ton John Deere."
Reports have his hands measuring 8.5 to 10 inches from his palm to the tip of his 3rd finger,
6 inches wide and wearing a size 20 ring on his ring finger.
