wilson was the most massive man i ever saw. he dwarfed EVERYONE.
i remember when i was a kid watching him compete in a strongman comp and he was being interviewed between events, he said:
"all you kids out there should grow up to become strong men."
i didn't know about being a strong man, but i sure as shit wanted to be wilson.
i loved the fact that he was as strong as he looked. surely he must have been the most massive muscular man alive at that point (you strong man nuts out there might be able to verify this one way or the other. pictures would be good).
can't say i was surprised when he died of a heart attack though. sad day for strength athletes.
doesn't seem to be much info on this amazing athlete which is a pity because a beast like o.d. should be honoured like the champion he was.
RIP O.D. WILSON.
