- Like André René Roussimoff, suffered from acromegaly (giantism) until he underwent an operation in the early 90s to remove the tumor that caused it. A side effect, though, was that his metabolism slowed down considerably causing him to gain a hundred pounds in a year.
- Was 6' 2" and 200 lbs at 12, and 6' 8" and 240 lbs at 14.
- Made his return to WWE after losing over 100 pounds.
- In his early days with the WWF, was known as 'Big Nasty' Paul Wight. His nickname was soon after changed to 'Big Show'.
- According to himself he's 7' 1" tall and weighs 450 lbs (as of early 2001). As of late 2006, his weight has swelled to over 500 lbs.
- I am the biggest, nastiest bastard to ever set foot in the WWF, and I am damn proud of it.
