1. András Arató (b. 1945)
With an HPI of 52.56, András Arató is the most famous Hungarian Model. His biography has been translated into 18 different languages on wikipedia.
Hide the Pain Harold is an Internet meme based on a series of stock photos of András István Arató (Hungarian pronunciation: [ˈɒndraːʃ ˈiʃtvaːn ˈɒrɒtoː]; born 11 July 1945), a Hungarian retired electrical engineer and model. In 2011, he became the subject of the meme due to his overall facial expression and seemingly fake smile. Arató has been in and out of the stock photo and advertisement industry as a model since disclosing his identity. He took up travelling to Turkey and Russia for recreational purposes and kept a blog about his life and travels. The photos associated with such travels are said to be the cause of Arató's fame.
