Disagree.

It is obvious the man is obese. (350 lbs.)
A "plastic" chair for someone that size is asking for trouble.
Additionally, he's not asking for $1 million, just medical costs and loss of wages.

However, he should bear some responsibility for judging whether that type of chair could hold his weight as well, and asked for a sturdier chair.

I would award him reimbursement for medical costs, but no loss of wages.

So the restaurant has to have a range of chairs for the morbidly obese to the elephantine? do you think if he had been steered to one for lardo's he would have sued for the emotional distress and suffering? Doesn't anyone have any responsibility for allowing themselves to reach usch a state?
