It’s nothing short of a miracle for Calum Von Moger, the man who played Arnold Schwarzenegger, to come out of a medically induced coma. The 31-year-old was involved in a horrific accident through a second-story window earlier this year. However, given the severity of the injuries, it’ll take quite some time for him to recover completely.

The Australian bodybuilder Calum Von Moger played the role of Arnold Schwarzenegger in the 2018 film ‘Bigger’. It is indeed one of the major highlights of his career. However, apart from that, he has also won several bodybuilding competitions including WFF Mr. Universe, 2014, South Korea, and WFF Pro Mr. Universe, 2015, La Ciotat, France.
