Lou Ferrigno celebrates his 61st birthday tomorrow, and while you haven't seen him on your TV as much as you used to, he is still very active in the biz.

Ferrigno first became a household name with "Pumping Iron" back in the mid-1970's. Since then, he has graced your television with the Hulk television series, and 3 Hulk TV movies. Did you know he also voiced the Hulk in the big screen "The Incredible Hulk" and with an uncredited voice role in "The Avengers"?

Also on his resume is the role of trainer. As a matter of fact, Ferrigno trained Michael Jackson back in the 1990's and again in 2009, getting the King-of-Weird back in shape for a European tour.

In November 2010, Ferrigno joined fellow celebrities Steven Seagal and Peter Lupus when he was sworn in as a member of a Maricopa County, Arizona volunteer sheriff posse. In 2012, he was contestant on season five of the NBC reality television series The Celebrity Apprentice, raising money for his charity, the Muscular Dystrophy Association.

Take our readers poll:  Would Ferrigno have beaten Schwarzenegger in the Olympia if Arnold hadn't been such a weenie to him?
