The first Mr. Venezuela title went to Jose Gregorio Faria and he will find himself placed in hot water when he will compete in the first ever Mr. World which will be held in Turkey.

The first runner up went to Johnny Essig, and the second runner up went to Eduardo Quintana, both first class models in Caracas. Jose Gregorio Faria brought home a brand new car, a prize which to some fits the new KING!
