59-Year-Old Arm Wrestler’s TikTok Following Is Almost as Big as His Guns (Way to Go, Grandpa!)

TikTok is overrun with young, 20-somethings redefining what’s cool. (And, yes, we know, the cool people probably don’t even say “cool” anymore.) The video-sharing platform isn’t exactly where you’d expect to find a 59-year-old retired grandpa who likes to post about DIY projects around the house. And yet, Jeff Dabe, who fits that demographic, has amassed an impressive following on social media for one small reason: his huge arms.

Dabe was born with abnormally large limbs, but he clearly works (out) to keep them swole.

@jeffdabe Dang! This video still has traction #walkthisway #jeffdabe #ReTokforNature #PostitAffirmations #crunch #viral #viralvideo #viraltiktok #viralvideos #trending #tiktok #fyp #champion #armwrestler #armwrestlersoftiktok #fypシ゚viral ♬ original sound – Jeff Dabe MN Armwrestler

“I’ll keep going as long as I’m able,” Dabe told Fox 9 News after winning a world title earlier this year. “If I can’t keep up with the young guys, I’ll just go pull with the old guys. Or still pull with the young guys and get beat up, but it’s still enjoyable.”

This is one dude we’d never challenge to an arm-wrestling competition (or a TikTok popularity contest). The ones who have are brave souls indeed (or are just idiots).
