I heard this on the radio and not only this girl is killing herself eating that much but also the person feeding her, after all how the hell can she get out of bed?

I saw it on the front page of The Sun but took no notice of that Tory toilet paper, so waited while I got home from the pub and saw it on sky news.

That's what gets me. Who is feeding her and why don't they exercise some control over the feeding?

Yeah. Mind you, it's impressive in a sick way. Must be nice to have a hobby, though.

63 stone is nothing

I've personally had to move a guy out of the house at 85 stone. Mind you it took 12 of us to pick him up

I don't understand how the human body is capable of that.

Hold up! Which one is more Tory? The Sun or SkyNews?:O:

The Sun of course as its 100% murdoch mouthpiece, Rupert had a bit of a problem over publicity concerning the Tory politicians who were "impartially" helping him with his attempt at a full takeover of Sky so it remains for now as not 100% murdoch mouthpiece.

It may be a public company but with 40% owned by Murdoch and most of the rest with institutional investors, not many of whom are likely to be greenies, pinkos or screaming liberals now are they?

Old British weight measurement. One stone = 14 pounds, so 63 stone is 882 pounds.

Bossmark weighs 161 pounds.

A Stone is an old imperial weight measurement - 1 stone = 14 pounds or around 6.35 kilos - so she's 880ish pounds or 400 kilos:o
