Interred at Eternal Valley Memorial Park, Newhall, California, USA, in the Whispering Pines section, #177 E. Wrestled professionally under the names 'Swedish Angel' and 'Super-Swedish Angel'. His son Karl Johnson worked as a policeman, but also appeared in a few of his films. Weighed 300 pounds. According to legend, Tor became close friends with Bela Lugosi and once prevented Lugosi from committing suicide by threatening to throw him out a window! When speaking of her "Revenge of the Dead" (1959) co-star, actress Valda Hansen said that "Tor was like a big sugar bun." Unlike most professional wrestlers, Tor had naturally blond hair. However, in his wrestling and acting days, he kept his head shaved bald to add to his villainous appearance. His wife, Greta, reportedly did not care for the horror films he made late in his career. They made him seem to be a monster, quite the opposite of what her husband was off-camera. Is portrayed by George 'The Animal' Steele in Ed Wood
