Real life popeye Jeff Dabe got an interesting offer recently.

For those who don’t know. Dabe is a world champion arm-wrestler from Minnesota who was born with massive arms, as seen in the viral TikTok below.

Ahead of his next arm-wrestling competition “AWC 3 All or Nothing”, which airs on Saturday, January 13th at 1 PM ET on Triller TV, we sat down with Dabe, and he revealed to us that he got offered a role in Power Slap due to his giant arms but turned it down due to his age.

“The guy that runs the Las Vegas one reached out to me and see see if I’d be interested in coming out, and he said he’d pay for me to come down, and also, the doctor’s because you have to have a physical first to see if you can do it. “

“I told him I’m sorry for my age; I’m having a hard time trying to remember where I leave my keys and other stuff. I said, I don’t need one good slap to knock me into retirement and also, I’m afraid if I hit someone that, I feel bad. If I hit someone, something bad would happen.”

Dabe did say that he would have done it if he were younger and would probably do pretty well with the slapping part of Power Slap.

“I probably would do alright because I suppose I would train more for how they line up… So I’m sure I could probably go practice on one of those bags that you hit, you know, with practice, I would probably do alright.”

You can check out Dabe in this weekend’s AWC 3 “All or Nothing” event airing on Triller TV on Saturday.
