Toast from the coast, The Human Orchid, Sensation from the nation. Biography of from a clean cut babyface morphed into an anti-hero wrestling pioneer who created sexually ambiguous , quasi-effeminate, vaguely gay persona who drive in Packard with Jefferies the valet that decontaminate the ring with "Chanel #10". Wrestler helped sell television post WWII & increased sales for live wrestling attendance over casual fans from all walks of life on his wacky routine. He paid a huge price from 24/7 larger than life high flying narcissistic lifestyle from the rough & tumble professional wrestling, "ring rats" aka groupies, gambling & alcohol abuse. However, he influenced a lot of people that stole his gimmicks including James Brown, Bob Dylan & Muhammad Ali
