Most of World Wrestling Entertainment (WWE) wrestlers are known for their powerful personalities and massive physiques, but there are still some stars out there who are bigger than other wrestlers. The Big Show, Great Khali and Giant Gonzalez are some of the famous names, but Andre the Giant is considered the greatest wrestler of all time. When he gained a worldwide fan base in the 1980s and 1990s, his massive physique drove his followers crazy.
An old clip of a wrestler with a great physique who was also a talented athlete is going viral again. His big hands are usually shown in the video. The anchor holds its face in front of Andre’s hand in the video, and the TV host’s face is noticeably smaller than Andre’s.
However, over time, his physique began to deteriorate due to operations and injuries. According to the WWE website, Andre the Giant has proven to be bigger than WWE itself. Throughout the 1970s and well into the 1980s, the so-called “Eighth Wonder of the World” was the company’s main attraction, towering four inches above the competition at seven feet in height, tipping the scales to a gargantuan 500. -plus pounds.
Raised in a small French farming village, Andre lived a quiet, pastoral life as a child. However, his size was an issue almost from the start, the official website reported.
Andre was born with acromegaly, a condition that causes bones to grow at an accelerated rate. He stood at 6-foot-3 and weighed 200 pounds by the time he was 12 years old.
