Apparently that pool was the ultra deep one Nasa uses to train astronauts in space, before he got in it.

Love that song, the man could really sing. It's on about 3 of my playlists.

It's still 'only' a billion though. This song was a one-hit wonder, has 4.4 billion views, and is among the 10 most viewed in YouTube's history...

See that's the thing many people who demonize "body shaming" don't get. The main issue isn't fat people's "appearance", it's the damage it does to their bodies. You don't do them any favor by saying it's okay and enabling them.

Perfect example here, that poor guy died at age what?

I think Richard's point was, who cares how fat the guy was? A great song is a great song.

He wouldn't have lasted long during covid, but if he'd made it that far maybe he would have spat out another song or two.

That swimming pool was only 6 in deep before he got in.

He could have been a singing sumo, and become very wealthy.
