    I’m 6’1" and 250 lbs and in way better shape than him. It is physically impossible for someone with a body like him to weigh 215 and be 6’3", he’s either lying about his height, his weight, or both (it’s definitely both). I’d guess he’s probably like 5’8" and 300 lbs.

      He’s still a pretty big dude compared to the average person. You can take a look at pictures of him next to Trudeau, and he only looks a couple inches shorter than him. I’d say he’s prob around 6ft with some help from his lifted shoes, but he’s definitely pushing 300lbs.

      He wears shoes that add 3 inches to his height. It’s why he’s alway hunched forward. (They’re basically concealed platform heels.)

      Just saying…. He’s even shorter than we guess.

        I work in orthopedics and rehabilitation, specializing in orthotics and prosthetics. I often have to build lifts into shoes to accommodate people with limb length discrepancies. He definitely wears lifted shoes, but the most you can really hide without making it very noticeable is about an inch, maybe an inch and a half.

        With the type of dress shoe he wears and with his age, there’s no way he’d be able to manage a 3" heel lift. If I were to guess, he’s prob got a 3/4 to a 1" lift in his shoes. Which would be more than enough to create an anterior pelvic tilt.
