I'm actually surprised the hospital had the equipment to deal with him...most of the medical tables/beds I've heard of are "only" rated for 500-600 lbs.

Whether he SHOULD have been treated or not is a different, and perhaps more complex, question.

Somebody applaud westy for that grand contribution. Worthy of a diamond, in my opinion.
And misdrial, they probably had someplace to put him, but if he needed any scans, he most likely went to the zoo. They have MRI and CT scanners that are much larger.

Look!! Violet Beauregard on a pallet! Heard an interview with the guys brother...said the poor fat guy had a disease, in that, he could not ever feel like his stomach was full

...that is called, Fatty Perpendicular, the stretched-stomach syndrome.....for every person with a genetic predisposition to obesity, there are 10000 people, who can't stop feeding the cake-hole.
