Andre The Giant's crazy genetics afforded him money, fame and endless opportunity. However, his unmanageable size also made life very difficult. How?

It is important to point out that Andre was a *true* giant. What I mean by this is that he not only was way, way, way taller than average, but his bone structure had a width and thickness proportional to his height. You can be 7'+ tall, but if you're rail thin you are just a giant for height but not a true giant. Andre's wrists and ankles were 250% thicker than that of your average 5'9 man. His shoulder blades were almost 3 X the width of the average man as well. Arnie said that Andre's strength was unfathomable. Arnie used to compete at at 230-240 lbs(237 lbs at the 1974 Mr.Olympia). Dyring the off-season, Arnie was 260-270 lbs. Well, Schwarzenegger said that once in a restaurant, Andre grabbed him beneath the arms and lifted him up in the air and put him on too of a shelf in the same way that a dad would do to his toddler. Imagine doing that to a 260 lba man. Truly unspeakable strength. Like Andre once said himself: "Respect the giant."

It's pretty interesting how skeletal frames work with strength. I'm 5'8, when I was young I'd wrestle at 190-203. I did a lot of lifting to stay in the upper weight class and my strength for weight was great, but taller guys with thicker bones who didn't even lift could really jerk me around. I remember that feeling of massive bones grinding against mine, feeling like a toothpick about the be snapped. And that was just in my own weight class. Guys with big frames have something us normies can never compete against.

He actually had two things acromegaly (which adults can get) and gigantism. Acromegaly made he jaw hands and feet grow and gigantism was responsible for his height. Both are disorders related to growth hormone but acromegaly can occur in adulthood and gigantism usually in childhood. Some 7ft people are really skinny but he was not.

It broke my heart the magic he gave in the film, The Princess Bride, seeing him throw boulders and catching the princess, only to find out he was in agony the entire time and had to use a lot of "movie magic" for the film. I remember watching it when I was a kid and asking my dad if people can really get that big and if I was going to be that big, and my dad softly took me down a notch saying being big has it's perks but the world isn't built for tall people. I am the shortest guy in my family at 5'7.

One of my favorite things I ever heard about him was how proud he was of Princess Bride. Supposedly, and I believe it, he watched it very often and was so excited to share it with each of his friends. Andre was such a gentle soul in so much torment, and his favorite thing he did was put forth his soul in that movie. A giant who, despite his flaws, had a heart of gold within

So, just as my grandpa does to this day, he got his drink and had a nice conversation with him. He said he was a nice, lowkey kind of guy.

I knew a guy who had Acromegaly. He was very much like Andre. A gentle giant. He had to stay on medication in order to stop growing and lead a normal life. Tough as bricks, nicest guy you'd ever meet, humble, down to earth, loved his mom. He was so tough he felt almost no pain. Died in a car accident. Old man going 60mph fell asleep behind the wheel and hit him head-on. Probably the only thing that COULD kill him. RIP bro.

At 6'9, I'll say I can only vaguely commiserate how small this world is, how rude people can be, and how isolated one can feel. I would say I'm at the extreme upper end of what can still be classified as normal, but that just makes me cry for what this man must've went through.

Rip bro. I am only 6'6 and I am already painfully aware of how nothing is catered to taller people. Everytime I go for the elevator in my apartment building, I have to lower my neck or I will hit my head. My 4 seat car is effectively 3 seat car, because noone can sit behind me. Buying shoes is an issue, stores usually stock up on 41-46 size the most, shame I am 48. I usually have to get 3-4XL shirts or they wont go lower than my bellybutton So many little things people never even think about..
