Andre the Giant hanging out with friends in the 1980s
Look at Andre the Giant with his posse. Mr. the Giant – was 7 feet 15 inches tall and weighed 520 lbs. His size was a result of gigantism caused by excess growth hormone. His gigantic size led him to be called: “The Eighth Wonder of the World.”
One of his most famous wrestling bouts was with Hulk Hogan at WrestleMania III in 1987. Andre also played the beloved character Fezzik, the giant in The Princess Bride. Legend has it that Andre the Giant holds the world record for most beers consumed in one sitting. During a six-hour period he drank 119 of bottles. So, how many giant pee breaks would he have to take?
