It's kind of disputed how much he weighed. The WWE said he was well past 600 pounds, but most accounts put him around 550. He was also around 7'4" and was quite the prodigious drinker. Also, the author Samuel Beckett used to give him rides to school!
I remember hearing that on a special about him after he died, he was my favorite wrestler back in the day. And he was huge by any standards. He was already well over 6 feet tall at 12 years old, his wiki says he was 7 foot 4 inches when he died
