Andre the Giant left home at 14, vanished for five years, and his parents didn't recognize him on TV. Ric Flair claimed he drank 106 beers in six hours. Another story says he passed out after 119 and was covered with a piano cover. Too big for airplane toilets, he reportedly used a bucket. He died at 46 and was reportedly flown to America for cremation because no local crematorium was big enough. In the video below Andre the Giant sits down for a rare 1970s TV interview. His grandfather was 7'8". By nine years old Andre was already bigger than every kid in school. His father said he'd probably end up the same size. He left the farm with nothing. Told his father he didn't want that life. His father gave him two weeks. He never came back. He changed his name and did whatever he could to survive in Paris. For five years he never called home. When he finally knocked on the door, his brother recognized his face from a broadcast the night before - then closed the door for ten minutes because he couldn't believe it. Andre started asking questions about their missing son. Then switched to Polish, the language they only spoke at home. That's when they knew. He became the highest paid wrestler in the world. Guinness Book of Records confirmed it. Hotels couldn't find beds big enough. Taxi drivers charged him double for his size. At 11 he watched a man arrive at the farm in a horse-drawn carriage with a chauffeur. Told his father he wanted to live like that. His father told him to quit dreaming and keep working. Was Andre the Giant made by the wrestling ring, or by the 14-year-old who walked off a farm and refused to come back empty-handed?
