Lost videos

Jul 25, 2024 - permalink

I used to have a video of Monica Martin grocery shopping, with candid reactions from other shoppers. It's probably about 20 years old, and may have originally been from DTV. If anyone has it that would be awesome.

@chipperpip, thank you very much for your hints. The description and the screenshots of this Production featuring Ann-Marie underline what I wrote earlier about „the holy grail“. 😊

However, this production is not the one I meant, as I have this one myself. It is a fantastic one. Regarding the quality, it is quite okay I would say. It is what it is, a converted rather old shoot. Only one very great scene has an annoying glitch when Ann-Marie struts her out-of-this-world legs.

The VHS I meant had a blue cover booklet, as far as I remember. I believe it was from the mid-90s. Must have been very rare. I am very sure it existed, as I recall my regret of not having ordered it after I got my hands on the material from Flexible Productions. They claim in their description they would have had the only shooting featuring her, but I think that wasn‘t true.

sigh I guess this lost Ann-Marie shooting will be gone forever. At least as long as the blue-covered VHS or DVD would not have been just a variant of the Flexible Productions stuff

Anybody still have the video from "Monsters of the West" ?? It was basically a bodybuilding tour, that went to Japan.. and featured some top European muscle at the time (late '80s, maybe very early '90s). It was a great contrast of cultures.. and had some epic footage of Hannie Van Aken. If someone has it, or a link, please post, thanks.

The only thing I know of that fits that isn't really an official video, it was put together by the late phy911/thestreetfighter using Youtube clips converted from Japanese VHS recordings of the 1988 IFBB International Women's Amateur Invitational in Japan:

Anyone have the video of the 2006 Olympia biceps battle featuring Kristy Hawkins? I believe it used to be on YouTube.

I assume that would have been the "Battle of the Biceps" event mentioned here.

HDPhysiques has a few clips from it, but oddly not one of Kristy (I can confirm the two on that page don't show her, I downloaded them years ago).

It's possible it's included in the bonus/expo sections of this DVD for the 2006 Ms Olympia, or even this one for the Mr Olympia, but neither of them mention the event by name.

People, this isn't a thread to ask for paysite stuff that you already know where to buy, on sites that are still available. This is for obscure stuff that you don't know where to find.

There was an MSNBC investigates called "Body of Work". It premiered like 2002ish and featured Colette Nelson and Heather Foster. Recorded most of it on vhs a while ago but threw the tapes out. Has anyone seen this documentary?

2001, according to this. I'd like to see it too, apparently April Hunter was also in it.

The first one is of Vickie Gates getting an arm pump with a dress on.

Was she actually working out with weights, or just flexing her arms? Do you remember what color the dress was?

@rnreed12 Not sure why you deleted your posts, but in case anyone else was looking for the same Vickie Gates video, my best guess from your additional descriptions would be this scene:

From Ray Martin video RM 45.

It's available digitally on https://www.wpwmax.com or as a DVD from the WPW Shopify store (ripping those is generally the best option, quality-wise).

You deleted my comment but if you checked you would see that the 1998 evening shows are not available

Still too close to asking for active paysite content, given that they're still around and have other videos for those two contests:

https://usamuscle.com/women/events/detail.php...

https://usamuscle.com/women/events/detail.php...

I'm also not sure what you're asking for even exists, since going back to when their site was repetrope.com, they only seem to have ever had the pump room videos: Nationals, USA.

If you're naming a particular producer and they're still selling stuff, take it up with them.

Even though they are not in stock the item numbers for them still exist which implies that they once were in stock. I should have bought them , however at the time I was more interested in the exclusive pump room footage. But repetrope had high res video , and wpw looks like mud .

Not some specific video request, but does anyone know where to find old armwrestling videos?

I vaguely remember an armwrestling match that used to be on YouTube between two lean female bodybuilders, one blonde and a darker skinned lady, and (if I remember correctly) there was a quite athletic man refereeing/cheering them on. The match took about a minute and was a real grinder.

It would be nice if someone knew a place where old videos of this kind (preferably armwrestling) are saved

Thanks in advance!

Right, I have some really obscure ones that I'm 99% certain no-one will have but it's worth a shot:

FV 12 - 1992 Ms. National Fitness Contest (Full Version)

I'm a big fan of any kind of strength/exercise contests between bodybuilders/fitness girls. Anything like the Extravaganzas, Strong & Shapely contests, I love them. Thankfully a lot of these contests were covered in Women's Physique World videos. Now, in the description for "FV 12 - 1992 Ms. National Fitness Contest" it mentions there is a "one-armed pushup strength event" where all the competitors go for max reps in one-armed pushups. But having bought this video digitally from WPW, from Muscleville and also from WPWMax I can confirm that none of the versions include it this pushup contest, nor does the video run for over 5 hours as the description says.

Some of them are labelled as "Finals Only" and seemingly it was once part of a two-disc physical set, so I can only imagine that for some reason the first disc including the strength segment is not in the digital version and is perhaps only available in physical copies. But, the official WPW website no longer lists any physical copies of FV12.

Does anyone have any leads on this at all? I realise it is an extremely obscure video!

2003 HerBiceps Armwrestling Tournament

I realise there is still the potential for HerBiceps to eventually reupload this video so I will happily edit the post if this breaches terms. But I am talking about the 2003 HerBiceps armwrestling tournament featuring girls like Steph Park, Shelly Yakimchuk, Angie Semsch, Rebekah Kresila, etc. It's been long requested by fans so at this point I am near certain that HB have lost the original master copy and that no-one on here has a copy either. But again, worth a shot.

Arnold Expo Bicep Curl Competition

I am not sure what year it was from (potentially 2008?) but there was a folder on DianeTheValkyrie which had an absolute ton of muscular women from the expo, including Colleen Ritchie, doing max reps bicep curls. I tried looking for it again on the site many times but could never locate it in the labyrinthine folder structure. Loads of little clips of course but probably totted up to like 40 mins of bicep curl action all told.

So yeah, some real unobtainium there but any leads at all would be much appreciated! Thanks.

FV 12 - 1992 Ms. National Fitness Contest (Full Version)

At risk of being disappointed again, this page does show the 2-disc DVD set available, and is probably your best bet (not sure why it says "Finals only" when the description says it includes the prejudging and such, so one of those is wrong). Not sure which site you were looking at, but that shopify one is their current DVD store that has almost everything available.

 

2003 HerBiceps Armwrestling Tournament

Arnold Expo Bicep Curl Competition (DianeTheValkyrie)

For both of these your best first step might be to look at old archived versions of the pages to get an idea of what video filenames you're actually after.

Here's a likely index page for Herbiceps, you could check pages like the 2003 HerBiceps Dinner to see if the descriptions match:

HerBiceps Event Coverage

DianeTheValkyrie is tougher, but here's the last version of their movies index page captured:

Diana the Valkyrie's Movie Theatre

It's not terribly well-organized as I'm sure you remember, and the videos you're talking about could be on any number of the yearly miscellaneous or specific contents pages. Some of the more specific ones that might be what you're looking for:

The Curl Challenge at the Arnold, 2002

Biceps contest at the Arnold, 2004

There's also the last resort of looking at the list of all video files that were on the site:

Diana the Valkyrie All the movies

I should reiterate that the archive.org versions are just the index pages for the most part, and won't have actual video files available except for some of the free ones that didn't require a login, like these.

 

Someone out there has gotta have the abs and the ring video with danny j

As far as I know this is the first time you've asked about that, I know she had some videos on Femflex and such. With a description that vague, the best I can suggest is going to the DC++ Hub and doing a search for "dannyj" to see if you can find the ones you're looking for.

When you do a search on youtube, you can specify the content type as "playlist", that will let you find collections put together by other people, which might include videos that wouldn't have been found on a text search or are unlisted:
