Love all three of these guys! Great guys! You know one thing I always really appreciated about Tugboat is that even though he was a huge guy that could "just" rely on his size, he didn't. He went to the gym and kept himself in shape, You can tell by looking at his arms & chest. The dude had definition even for as big as he was & because he kept himself in shape, he could do a lot of stuff in the ring a lot of other big guys couldn't. He's probably the most underrated Big Guy of all time.

He is extremely hunched over. One Man Gang was a legit 6'6" man in his prime and Tugboat was 6'3". Due to what appears to be spinal curvature, One Man Gang has lost several inches (about 4") off his original heat when he was able to stand straight and tall.

OMG broke kayfabe for me in 1984 when my father was in ICU after being shot on the turnpike in FL as an FHP officer. In West Palm Beach there was only one dressing room so I had the curtain pulled back for me. Unforgettable as a 10 year old. I also met Dory Funk, Mike Graham, Wahoo McDaniel, Jessie Barr and Brian Blair. When CWF folded in 1987 I stopped watching Pro Wrestling. OMG was such a nice guy and he really stuck out to me because he was a heel at the time. The wrestlers all treated me like a very special guest. This was before WWF got huge and the 20/20 with Stossel came out.

Tugboat was at least 6'4" in his prime and doesn't look much less now. I don't know why he's listed anywhere at 6'3". Earthquake was listed at 198 cm (6'6") in sumo wrestling, and Tugboat/Typhoon was not much shorter. OMG was about 6'6"-6'7" in his prime and has shrunk a bit because of his posture issues. He was never his billed 6'9".
