Smackdown - Big Show's Weight
Trauma-san:
It's 8 inches. I know that's not an english measure, LOL, but someone who's EIGHT INCHES taller than someone else weighs a hell of a lot more.
Look at Kurt Angle/Hogan. I mean, Hogan's not THAT damn much bigger bodystyle than Angle, Angle's a big boy.
Angle's 6'4, he weighs 220 pounds.
Hogan's 6'7, and weighs 275 pounds.
There's a 55 pound difference in THREE INCHES. At one time, Hogan weighed 330, That's 110 pounds heavier than Kurt Angle, in THREE INCHES.
I think it's easy to say that Big Show is 150 heavier than Yoko was. Maybe Yoko was bigger when you saw him, but that wasn't when Luger slammed him. It doesn't matter anyways, I'm not saying it's a strength comp. between Hogan and Luger, lol, I'm just saying can Hogan do it.
Jay ay Beee:
I told you Hogan could do it straight away, because Big Show will jump, just like Yoko jumped when Luger slammed him.
It's ridiculous to say that Hogan and Angle's body style is the nearly the same, Hogan is much bigger. Are you saying Big Show is heavier than Yoko ever was?
Don Jacob:
500-600 lbs is nothing for people who work out.........especially ESPEICIALLY FOR those kinda guys .
i mean check me out i'm like 5'8 probably close to 200 lbs and i've been weightlifting casually since 99' and bench 295 and squat 470
for someone who is 30 or 40 something who has worked out longer, harder , better, and who is bigger than me to lift a guy like big show or yoko is really not as suprising to me. i mean lord knows i could never do it,lol. but when you think how hard those guys work out and how much they're use to picking up 200-300 lb guys day in and day out. you would expect the bigger guys like Brock Lesner, Kane, and even hogan to do shit like that
The Watcher:
iirc yoko has been the heaviest person in the WWE/WWF @ any point in time, my brother has a book with all these sorts of useless facts in 'em, i'll see if i can dig it up

Yeah, I agree, it's still an amazing feat to me, though. You don't really think about it much, but these pro wrestlers are literally the biggest, strongest guys in the world. I'm sure there's people around that are bigger and badder, but Hulk Hogan's a big sombitch, Brock Lesnar's probably one of the strongest men alive.
I mean, I'm 6'1... 190 pounds. Hogan's 6'7, 275 pounds, that's CRAZY, if you were standing next to him, you'd think he's a monster.
I saw on his dvd, some girl met him, and she was like "I can't believe you keep yourself in this kind of shape", Dude is RIPPED to be that old.
