Infotainment Factory: Aussie former Mr Universe, 31, fighting for life

Former Mr Universe Calum von Moger is reportedly fighting for life.

Reports claim the Australian actor and bodybuilder, 31, plunged from a second storey window last week and seriously injured his spine.

Fellow bodybuilder and Youtuber Nick Trigilli said the three-time Mr Universe winner, best known for his portrayal of Arnold Schwarzenegger in the 2018 film Bigger, was in hospital in an induced coma.

Moger suffered a large number of cuts in the incident, according to reports.

Trigilli, who runs the BodyBuilding & BS YouTube channel, said in his video: "Calum is hitting a rough spot … I hope this is rock bottom for him and he can get his life back."

Last week Moger sent out an emotional post on social media, with reports claiming he was recently kicked out of his family's house in Australia.

"Everyone has a past. We've all been through hard times. I admit, I messed up bad many times," he wrote.

"But I don't care about dwelling on negative thoughts of the past. All I care about is that I learn from my mistakes and become a better person.

"The positive achievements I've done in my life far outweigh the muck-ups I had along the way.

"All I can ask is for your forgiveness so I can keep moving forward on the right path again."

Fans on social media left messages of support for the Aussie, with most describing him as an "inspiration".

"Praying for you man. You were my first inspiration with fitness and I'm hoping you get through these hard times," one fan wrote.

Another said: "Praying for you. Pray for this man everyone."
