Saw that, you know those big/tall guys like that just don't last as long as normal people, the big wrestler Andre, he died in his fourties too, and he was BIG; look at the size of his hands and ring size

That disease he had sounded horrible. My wife works for a hospital and she was telling me they had a patient come in to the ER a while back that had stabbed herself repeatedly in the abdomen because she was flipping out and couldn't take the pain of that disease. Sad.

Aside from that, Manute was the only person in the NBA to finish with more career blocks than points.

RIP Manute.
