Gary Hall Jr.
Following in his father’s footsteps, Gary Hall Jr. made a name for himself as an Olympic swimmer, earning a remarkable five gold medals across three different Olympic Games. However, Hall is also remembered for his unique warm-up routine, which involved sporting a robe and boxing shorts and even shadowboxing and flexing for his fans. Although this routine landed him in hot water with a fine at the 2004 Games, perhaps it proved useful when he saved his sister’s life in a shark attack by punching the animal repeatedly until it swam away.
