Anyone have any idea? He was 6'3" and looks no less than 400 pounds.

Who cares?! He was a great actor so his weight didn't matter.

Well it might have been the cause of his heart attack.. so I might have mattered to fans...

He was likely in the 400 pound range.

It sounds superficial I know, as I am an overweight person, but was anyone else surprised that Chanice went for Buck?!

I know she was no Brooke Shields, but wow....how did those 2 even have sex???

I'd say this cloud is Cumulo Nimbus.
Didn't he discover America?
Penfold, shush.

Probably five hundred. I think he slimmed down and by JFK went back up. Poor John was taken so soon.
