History Facts That Are so Wild, They May Change How We See The World

At times, it can be worth it to break the rules if the payoff is big enough. With big being the key word here, Arnold Schwarzenegger learned early in his life that bending the rules for personal benefit can be well worth it – which is ironic since now he works as Governor of California!

During his time in the Austrian army, Arnold snuck away to participate in a bodybuilding contest. At the time, he was not known in the bodybuilding world, and once his superiors found out what he did, they sent him to military prison. Still, once Arnold was out, he made good on his bodybuilding efforts and went on to become one of the most famous people in the fitness world, making his jail stay worth it.
