Yeah, pretty much. Bran the Blessed (Welsh folkloric figure) was so large, no house could hold him nor ship bear him. He and his brothers had to cross to Ireland over a family matter, and he steadied himself on one of the watercraft and waded up to his neck to get there. Again, folklore. Thanks Red Badger.

Saw the name Bran Blessed, and couldn't help but remember British actor Brian Blessed. When I did a search for him, this recent article came up:
