Despite "ruining [his] image,"...

...as he used to say, Jack LaLanne (finally) died yesterday at age 96:

At 60 [LaLanne] swam from Alcatraz Island to Fisherman’s Wharf handcuffed, shackled and towing a 1,000-pound boat. At 70, handcuffed and shackled again, he towed 70 boats, carrying a total of 70 people, a mile and a half through Long Beach Harbor.
