For those of you familiar with Andre the Giant, would you say he was about the appropriate size to be considered a Goliath?
At the peak of his height, he was 7'4" and weighing in the 300lb range.
But, due to his "giantism" Andre kept growing in size. He probably would of been taller if his frame could take all of his weight, but due to his growth the cartilage in his spine and his knees compressed, making him estimated around 6'10" around the time of his death.
The peak of his weight was around 540lbs, and was said to be around 520 around the time of his death.
Andre was a farmer for most of his young life, helping his family with farming all of his young days while growing up.
His feats included lifting the car up for the family so they could change a tire, holding the tractor up while they switch pieces in and out, and even flipping a small car over with 4 men inside.
Andre's appetite and drinking were stuff of legend. He said said to be able to drink well around 150+ beers at a time.
People who ate at dinner with Andre would speak how he would drink 6 bottles of wine, eat several lobsters, and a steak, then go wrestle a match.
Andre the Giant was not a man, he was a Goliath among men!
