World record fattest man dies

The worlds’ biggest man has died at the age of 48.





Manuel Uribe, once weighing in at 1,230 pounds, had slimmed himself down to 867 pounds. His highest weight was a Guinness World record.

Uribe had been confined to his bed in Monterrey for years, unable to walk on his own.

Uribe had been taken to the hospital on May 2 because of an abnormal heartbeat. A crane was used by emergency and civil defense workers.
