If you ever go to big reenactments, you'll notice the big ones die fast so they can lay down.

Oh so true. I haven't been reenacting in the last 2 years (too many schedule conflicts- see pt boat and paintball). I always laugh at the really fat ones. We had one in our unit for a few years. I'll tell you a funny story, but I can't do it now (my work day is starting) Just a teaser though, he was about and inch taller than me and weighed atleast 400 lbs.
