Arnold Schwarzenegger has revealed that he underwent surgery last week to get a pacemaker fitted and is “doing great.”

In Monday’s episode of his podcast “Arnold’s Pump Club,” the Hollywood actor and former California governor said, “Last Monday, I had surgery for a pacemaker and became a little bit more of a machine.”

Schwarzenegger said sharing the news “goes against so much of my upbringing in Austria, where nobody ever talked about medical issues. Everything related to healthcare was kept to yourself.” More

  1. “Crom, I have never prayed to you before. I have no tongue for it. No one, not even you will remember if we were good men or bad, why we fought, or why we died. No, all that matters is that two stood against many, that’s what’s important. Valor pleases you, Crom, so grant me one request, grant me revenge!”

  2. “where nobody ever talked about medical issues. Everything related to healthcare was kept to yourself” Some of the old women at work it’s all they talked about. It’s like a competition to them – After my second hip surgery they left forceps and a sponge in there, that sort of thing. If you were unfortunate enough to be a captive audience you would be regaled with their entire medical history. On a loop no less.

  3. Kind a funny he’s had no issues with being on Kidney Dialysis for the last ten years. All due to Steroids. Dball to be exact. The more things change the more they remain the same. Now days it’s Tren. The flavor of the year. Decade maybe. They occasionally distribute a questionnaire asking up and comers if we gave you a pill that would ensure you of peak muscle growth would you take it knowing it would cut ten years off your life span. he percentages are always the same. 89% say sign me up. Arnolds an asshole, always has been.

    You know all of their maladies in 2 minutes.

    “You know why I have one eye?”

    “I didn’t ask”

    I still love them.

  5. He should have been fitted with a set of balls. If he was, he wouldn’t have been hen-pecked by his lib Kennedy wife while he was governor, and he would have left a mark on the state, instead of doing nothing much intelligent.

  6. I enjoyed his movies (and still enjoy them) though it’s a shame he had to venture into politics and voice his opinions about everything under the sun – not that there’s anything wrong with that (it’s what we all do here) – but sometimes discretion is the better part of valor.

  7. It’s a damn shame the brain doesn’t have a sinus node that can be paced to make a person have orderly thoughts when their thinking becomes as deranged as a misfiring heart’s rhythm. There’d be no Communists like him if such a device existed…

  8. To the extent it can be said to be the product of the nation that gave rise to him, Schwarzenegger’s COVID thinking explains much about the Anschluss to me and what came after.

    “So at the end of your life, your heart eventually stops…but not with a pacemaker.”

    …it’s only an electrical impulse. Once something else important packs it in like your lungs, or your heart mechanically fails or clogs, there will be nothing to respond to that impulse.

    Firing a spark plug is useless if the engine is locked up…
