I don’t follow wresting, but wow—7 foot 7, 485 pounds, and able to play soccer and basketball as a seven foot stripling youth! Amazing... too bad his body couldn’t support his bulk.

André René Roussimoff (Bulgarian: Андрей Рене Руссимов; Polish: Andrzej Renat Russimow) (19 May 1946 – 27 January 1993),[2][3] best known as André the Giant, was a French professional wrestler and actor. He is also recognized from his role as Fezzik in the classic movie The Princess Bride. His great size was a result of acromegaly, and led to him being dubbed "The Eighth Wonder of the World".[4][5] In the World Wrestling Federation (WWF), Roussimoff briefly held the WWF Championship. In 1993, he was the first inductee into the WWF Hall of Fame.

From what I understand, he had been in poor health for a number of years. Condolences to his family.
