I just watched Pumping Iron

I can see where you are coming from b fold. Arnold does and says some things in that movie that make him look like an idiot. One part that always comes to mind, is when he said he did not go back to Austria when his father died because it was two months before a competition. Now I realize competitive bodybuilding was his life, but if my father died the day of a show I wouldnt even think of competing. Other then that scene, I found his arrogance (ie. calling his mom and telling her he won before the contest took place) to be rather amusing!

I agree, that movie reinforced the fact that Arnold was nuts, but he was the best, so who I am to criticize his insanity. I guess it takes a certain kind of mind set to get to that level. In the words of Arnold, "Whatever it takes." Plus the movie is rather amusing and awfully motivating.
