Jim Carrey’s hilarious stint as a bodybuilding competitor.

Jim Carrey has always been known to contort his body and face to the most hilarious effect – particularly in his prime. Love him or hate him he was and in some ways still is one of the greats in the comedy world.

So can Jim Carrey twist his body into a bodybuilder? The answer is apparently yes. In this throwback skit from In Living Color Jim Carrey gives the best posing routine of his life during a female bodybuilding contest. It’s ridiculous but actually makes some pointed jabs at bodybuilding posing routines. This was actually a reoccurring character of his on In Living Color – but this spoof of an actual bodybuilding competition hits the closest mark for relatable  laughs.

So what do you think? Is this an offensive stereotype of bodybuilders used for cheap laughs? Or a hilarious take that bodybuilders can enjoy as well? Let us know in the comments below.
