An inspiring story… but read closer. WHAT?
There was a story yesterday on Yahoo news about the worlds most obese man. Basically, he was going to try and also hold the record for the most weight lost by a single person. He has already lost over 500 pounds in the last 2 years!
So his birthday is coming up, and he hopes to get out of the house for the first time in a whiol. Check this out:
Now weighing 717 pounds — the size of three hefty men — Uribe is still unable to move his swollen legs but hopes to get out of the house next month for only the third time in six years to celebrate his 43rd birthday.
He will still be in bed, hauled onto a tow truck for a trip to the mountainous countryside outside his home city of Monterrey in northern Mexico. It will be a rerun of a failed attempt in March that was thwarted when his bed hit an overpass.
Wait. What? His bed hit an overpass? Does that give anyone a funny visual in their head like it does mine? O well, at least he’s ok!
