This is how a hospital moved the dead body of the world’s former heaviest man to the crematory
On May 26th of this year Uribe “Meme” Garza died. At one point in his life, “Meme” weighed 1,230 pounds. A year ago, I helped remove the deceased body of a man who weighed 600 pounds. It took four of us to move him thirty feet from his bed to our hearse.
A couple years ago, we buried a 700 pound person and part of the wall of his house had to be removed in order to take him out of the house via a crane.
I simply cannot comprehend gracefully moving the deceased body of Mr. Garza. And in fact, it doesn’t look like there is a graceful way to move a body. Based on the picture below, his body was moved via tow truck and some crates.
Also, I don’t know what crematory could accommodate such a large person. I imagine there are crematories that can accommodate such mass, but I’ve never seen one.
