André the Giant was a French professional wrestler and actor. His extraordinary size was due to a combination of genetics and a medical condition called acromegaly. This rare hormonal disorder occurs when the pituitary gland produces excess growth hormone, causing abnormal growth in certain parts of the body, such as the hands, feet, and face. In Andre’s case, acromegaly led to his remarkable height and weight. Known as the “Eighth Wonder of the World,” André became a global icon in the wrestling scene during the 1970s and ’80s, famously battling Hulk Hogan in WrestleMania III. He also starred in the beloved film “The Princess Bride” as Fezzik, showcasing his acting talent and endearing personality.

Born André René Roussimoff on May 19, 1946, in Grenoble, France, and died on January 27, 1993, at the age of 46 in Paris, France.

3. The max he could have been in my opinion is about 600 pounds, probably more like 500 pounds for most of his career. Compare his build with that of Paul Wight they both weighed in the 500-pound range with similar builds.
