isolations as abel has put it is useless.
great sculps comes with function, look at swimmers/gymnast/weight lifter...that is unless you have a GH gut then thats another story.

actually many of the guys in my gym also have great abs.. that comes from crunches.

These guys don't even do Deads and Squats.

Well they won't have the legs and glutes to go with the abs then.

if they are bodybuilders, they may have it too.

All big big one, but may not be functional.

Though bbers' big muscle are not functional, their daily functional movement is better than most people. ahha
irony.
