ONE of the world's fattest
men has died at the age of 39 – weighing a staggering 64 stone (407 kg).
Ricky Naputi piled on the
pounds thanks to a gut-busting diet of 10,000 calories a day.
He grew so fat he was left
bedridden in his home on the Pacific island of Guam for FIVE YEARS – being
cared for around the clock by his wife Cheryl.
Ricky was offered
life-saving surgery and a TV crew from US network TLC who followed him for
three years as he battled to lose enough weight to travel to a hospital in the
US
But he ran out of time and
died in November 2012 – before the footage of his plight could be aired.
Ricky's story was finally
told this week in a movie documentary that charted his weight battle and his
touching relationship with Cheryl.
