Hans and Franz were characters in a recurring sketch called "Pumping Up with Hans & Franz" on the television sketch comedy show ''Saturday Night Live''. Hans and Franz themselves were played by Dana Carvey and Kevin Nealon, respectively. ==Description== In the sketch, Carvey and Nealon play a pair of muscle-bound Austrian jocks who mimicked/spoofed Arnold Schwarzenegger by using padding for fake muscles, drab gray sweatsuits, weight belts, and Austrian accents. The background of the set includes several life-sized cutouts of Schwarzenegger during his competition years and the sketch's introduction music featured mock Austrian "yodeling". "Pumping Up" primarily consists of Hans and Franz denigrating others for not being strong and as physically "fit" as they were, and then striking bodybuilder poses to show off their "muscled" bodies, complete with strained facial expressions. Arnold Schwarzenegger himself makes a guest appearance on the sketch (to much applause) and ridicules "his cousins" for being girlie and weak. A movie was in the works for a short time, entitled ''Hans and Franz go to Hollywood'' but was scrapped once producers saw poor box office performances from such ''SNL'' sketch-inspired movies as ''Stuart Saves His Family'' and ''It's Pat''. In late 2010, on the ''Conan'' program, Conan O'Brien and Nealon discussed how they were holed up in a Santa Monica hotel room for a month or so in the early nineties with Carvey and Robert Smigel, working on a script for the movie (which was to be a musical). A short sketch spoofing VH1's ''Behind the Music'' specials was filmed for the show's 1999 primetime ''25th Anniversary Special'', but time constraints prevented it from airing. It went on to appear in a later episode that season. In the sketch, Hans and Franz tell the story of how they were reunited in Hollywood when Franz unsuspectingly has his buttocks "read" by Hans. In 2014, the duo appeared in several State Farm commercials with Green Bay Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers.〔(www.washingtonpost.com-Aaron Rodgers stars in new State Farm ad with Hans and Franz )〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Hans and Franz」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
