Who was Bernie Barker?

Bernie Barker was recognized in July 2003 by Guinness World Records as the world's oldest male stripper. The former nuclear power plant worker and insurance salesman had taken up erotic dancing in 2000 at the age of 60 to keep in shape after surgery for the prostate cancer that would eventually cause his death. Over his stripping career, Barker titled in 42 stripper contests.

Barker's quest to place in Guinness began in 1978 with an unsuccessful bid to claim a record in swimming. He died after a brief battle with prostate cancer on March 21, 2007.
