I just want to say, my dad was good friends with Cantrell. I cannot tell begin to explain this guys reputation among guys who grew up fighting and were accostomed themselves to being feared by most. Cantrell was talked about like he was some sort of a superhuman. I wasn't sure if it was all an exaggeration until I shook his hand. Before he introduced himself I knew it had to be him just because of his handshake. (he is famous for breaking men's hands for fun or to prove a point) I am 6'1" and have large hands for my size and have never been "crushed" by a handshake, when I shook his hand the sheer mass of it let me know immediately he was a monster and could have broken my hand with ease if he wanted to. It was like a gorilla's hand, not kidding. He is kind of built like one, heard he never worked out much he was just always built like that. The width of his pinky is like my thumb. You might think it is an exaggeration, it isn't. He didn't break my hand,but when I guessed who he was and he confirmed, I told him, "thanks for not breaking it, I have heard about you" He is a really nice guy now, but when he was younger he was a monster if he had a problem with you. In Sin City when Clive Owen's character is describing how Mickey Rourke's character just came up in the wrong era, and during gladiator times he would have been a God...that is Art Cantrell.
