The fattest people in the world
Contents:
Sometimes a person gains excess weight as a result of an illness. But most people have a different reason – they eat too much and move little. Obesity can make a person's life incredibly difficult, both mentally and physically. However, some people have even become famous for their weight. Here top 10 fattest people in the world from the living.
10. Dzhambulat Khatokhov – 240 kg
The fattest man was born on September 24, 1999 and by the age of 1 he already weighed 17 kilograms. And by the first class, Dzhambulat's weight reached 115 kg, thanks to which his name appeared in the Guinness Book of Records. His mother says that the son inherited the heroic dimensions from his grandfather.
• Dzhambulat gained worldwide fame thanks to the documentary video "The Biggest Boy in the World", which was broadcast on many television channels around the world.
• Currently, the weight of the young man reaches 240 kg, and he is not at all shy about this. On the contrary, Khatokhov consciously increases body weight, and plans to compete in sumo wrestling competitions. He is actively involved in sports, participated in television shows and, at the invitation of journalists, visited Japan and England.
9. Donna Simpson – 290 kg
This adventurous and overly curvaceous lady created a website where her fans paid to watch Donna eat to get even fatter. According to foreign publications, she earned $ 90 a year in this way. In 000, Donna received the title of "The Fattest Mom in the World" and immortalized her name in the Guinness Book of Records.
• However, in 2011, the woman decided to lose weight to 170 kg in order to be more independent and be able to fully take care of her two children.
• Simpson is a supporter of the fatness acceptance movement and makes fun of people who "feel guilty when they overeat."
• However, at the “peak of form” Donna was far from the late Carol Yager, who, with a height of 170 cm, weighed 544 kg.
8. Terry Smith – 320 kg
Once upon a time, this dark-skinned American woman was an active woman, despite the fact that she was overweight since childhood. By the age of 20, she weighed 100 kg, but at the same time lived a full life, and then got married and became a mother.
• As she naturally aged, Terri became constantly fat, and eventually became bedridden. The situation is complicated by the fact that the woman suffers from constant headaches and doctors suspect a brain tumor. However, there is no MRI for patients with these sizes.
7. Paul Mason – 445 kg
Mason's breakfast was a meal for ten people and included bread, bacon, sausages and chicken eggs, while snacks consisted of 40 packs of potato chips and 20 chocolate bars per day. The NHS had to widen the doors and corridors at Mason's house so that restaurant staff could deliver food right to the fat man's bed.
• Mason was called the fattest man on Earth, but this did not make him happy. The Briton is tired of his appetites; he no longer wanted to consume almost 20 calories daily.
• In 2015, Paul Mason underwent a gastric bypass procedure. In order for the operating room to support the weight of the patient, the engineers had to install metal supports under the floor. To get rid of excess weight, the man was pushed by love for Rebecca Mountain. Thanks to this light feeling, he lost 305 kg and got rid of 21 kg of excess skin. Unfortunately, the couple broke up.
6. Katrina Rayford – 454 kg
As a child, Katrina was sexually abused and began to "seize" stress. At the age of 14, she had to undergo treatment in a psychiatric hospital due to problems with overeating. This Florida resident spent most of her life within the four walls of her own home, communicating with her peers only on the Web.
• However, Katrina did not lose hope for a normal life and managed to lose 261 kg with the help of an operation on the gastrointestinal tract and a strict diet. She is not going to stop there and is already going to romantic dinners with boyfriends.
5. Andre Nasr – 468 kg
The fattest man in Australia in 2015 sought medical help because he could not leave his house for the past two to three years. Andre consumed 12 calories a day, six times the amount recommended for Australians.
• The Australian became so fat that one of the walls of his house had to be dismantled so that medical workers could take him to the hospital. There he joined a special treatment program.
• Nasr has since lost over 170kg and says he wants to help others overcome extreme obesity.
4. Kenneth Brumley – 468 kg
At one time, Kenneth was considered the fattest man on Earth, and a documentary film “Half Ton Dad” was shot about his life. He was bedridden for four years, and the fire brigade had to break down a wall in his house to pull the fat man out and take him to the Renaissance Hospital in Texas. There, Brumley managed to lose 76 kg in 40 days.
• The weight loss procedure involved limiting the man's daily diet to about 1200 calories per day. For comparison, Kenneth consumed about 30 calories daily.
3. Mayra Rosales – 470 kg
If you look at the photo and after losing weight, it will be difficult to believe that this is one and the same person. This woman is living proof that it doesn't matter how much you weigh. The right motivation is important to lose weight.
In order to take care of her nephews, Mayra lost weight to 91 kg. Her sister, Jaime Lee, is serving a prison sentence for the manslaughter of her two-year-old child. Rosales initially took the blame, saying that she accidentally sat on her nephew and crushed him. However, during a high-profile investigation, the truth came out. And the real culprit was punished.
2. Juan Pedro Franco – 585 kg
In 2016, a resident of Mexico entered the Guinness Book of Records as the fattest person in the world. His weight at that time was a little short of 595 kg. In a short film shown by the BBC, Franco explains that after a car accident at the age of 17, half of his body was "broken" and he never fully recovered. Nevertheless, the doctors did not understand why the man gained so much fat. Franco suffered from diabetes, high blood pressure and hypothyroidism.
• Currently, he threw off 132 kg, up to 453 kilograms. In this, a whole team of 30 professionals helps him for free. The goal of a man is very simple – to get up from the couch on his own. This motivates him to exercise and even undergo gastric bypass surgery.
1. Khalid ibn Muhsen Shaari – maximum weight 610 kg
As a teenager, a resident of Saudi Arabia weighed 610 kilograms. He only slightly fell short of the record set by the fattest man in history – American John Minnock, with a body weight of 635 kg.
Extremely dubious in terms of health benefits, Khalid's achievement was recorded in the Guinness Book of Records.
• In 2013, the king of Saudi Arabia ordered the young man to be hospitalized. He also paid for the treatment. The young fat man was taken to the clinic on a military plane.
• Two hundred and ninety kilograms – that's how much the fattest person in the world weighs after all medical procedures. Through the efforts of doctors and Khalid himself, he managed to lose 320 kilograms. And by 2016, the heaviest person in the world gained the ability to walk.
