In responce to dohcrxl

An 800 lb man would not survive in natural conditions , nor would he get that way in the first place , you could not sit on the couch and have food brought to you , if you lived in natural conditions , say like the indians who used to live on this land , I seriously doubt any of them toped 250 lbs , even the big guys who were 6' plus .

Not a good comparison

Oh sure it is 'cause it's a mere comparison of what out of control eating habits and low metabolisms can do to both man and animal. I'm no doctor of the field by any means but it doesn't take a degree to see that genetic mutation is quite possible in humans as it is in the realm of the animal kingdom. Suppose thatin a buck's gene coding there's mutated programming for him to reach 100 lbs more in muscle mass, 6 inches morein height, 4 inches more in length than the average mature buck in his same habitat of 200 lbs. This makes him 300 all muscle. Throw in a voracious appetite and you've got an already big boy who has now become a 500poundlard arse. 200 extralbs is not going to make him immobile to where food has to be brought to him.

EDIT: Oh Jimmy, thanks again for the no-peep you sent me. It really did help me remember my anchor point better.

Of course there are. Me and Elvis were on a bigfoot hunt in NY and saw a mountain lion chasing one that was pushing 550lbs.

This might be a contender for a 500# buck.
