So we all know what it's like to put on some extra weight from time to time, but it appears some people just don't know when to stop. After all who can blame them though? Food is one of the most addicting things in the world. It's easy to let your weight get out of control and before you know what happened you don't recognize the person in the mirror anymore.
Millions of people are overweight and struggle with obesity across the world. And while the number of overweight people has drastically increased over the decades, this is not something that was so unheard of years ago. In fact, the world's heaviest human to be recorded in history was Jon Brower Minnoch who was born on September 29th, 1941, and died on September 4th, 1983 at the very early age of 41.
According to the Guinness Book of World Records, Jon Brower Minnoch was over 1,400 pounds at his peak when he was admitted to the hospital in 1978 for respiratory failure and congestive heart failure. It is reported that it took 13 people just to roll him over onto a makeshift bed that was actually two hospital beds lashed together that was made just to be able to hold him. He was placed on a strict diet of 1,200 calories per day and hospitalized for almost two years. He miraculously lost nearly one thousand pounds and was discharged from the hospital weighing just 476 pounds.
A short time later in 1981 he was rehospitalized and had sadly gained almost 200 pounds back that he had lost. In 1983 when he passed away at 41 years old he weighed right at 800 pounds.
Because of his peak weight in 1978 of 1,400 pounds, Jon Brower Minnoch remains the heaviest human in recorded history to this day!
