World's Fattest Man (update)
Gleaned from Fox News January 07, 2011 World's Fattest Man Sues Government: It's Their Fault A man who once weighed nearly 70 stone is to launch legal action against the NHS, claiming they failed to help him as his size soared. Former postman Paul Mason received life-saving gastric surgery last year binge-eating his way to gargantuan size. But the 50-year-old, who now weighs in at a comparatively small 37 stone, said he should have been helped years ago. Excerpt: The Daily Beast Former World’s Fattest Man Sues U.K. Is it the government’s fault that Paul Mason was fat? Mason, once the heaviest man alive, is filing suit against Britain's National Health Service for poorly advising him on his fight against obesity. Mason told the Sun that he cried for help from the NHS as early as 1996—but instead of diagnosing him with what was clearly an eating disorder (his calorie intake was 20,000 calories a day at one point), they told him to go on a diet and ride his bike more. Years later and weighing in at almost 1,000 pounds, he chronicled his struggle on a TV show called Britain's Fattest Man, which culminated with the broadcasting of his life-saving gastric bypass surgery. The show also revealed that Mason cost British taxpayers more than $3,000 a week before he had the surgery. "I want to set a precedent so no one else has to get to the same size—and to put something back into society," Mason said. |

He does have a point. Just ask yourself, would a sane person give a food addict unlimited amounts of food? Didn't the health service enable him? If the goverment had to hospitalize me because I was a junkie would it help to just keep giving me 'junk'?

Re: World's Fattest Man (update)
On second thought... Did a drug addict ever sue his supplier?

LOL, No. I think it is just a wrinkle of leg fat. You think maybe I should of blacked out the "sack"?? I just got a kick out of him sueing British Nation Health Service. After all they did so well giving him a place to live and all the food he could gulp down.

Re: World's Fattest Man (update)
He's a dumb asshole. He doesn't deserve any money for being a fat slob. It's called self control. If they give him money, they'll have to give every overweight dick head that cannot acknowledge that their weight is their own fault, the only exceptions being people with actual medical conditions that inhibit them from losing weight. I hope this cockmonkey dies and then we can get his autopsy photos. |

A joke and a poster child for Liberal agenda. How about some personal responsibility? No one made the fat bastard eat 20 donuts in a sitting. Instead of looking for people to blame he needs to look in the mirror. Is that his luggage sack in the picture? |

Re: World's Fattest Man (update)
I watched a documentary on him last week. Saw him having that huge chunk of fat removed from between his legs. He came across as such a dickhead. Deserves no money.
