Cheerful twin brothers who broke all records

Unusual twin brothers were born back in 1946. However, at that time there was nothing unusual about the boys. It all started 4 years later when the boys got measles. A rare complication affected the pituitary gland, and the brothers began to rapidly produce growth hormone.

In adolescence, boys could boast of remarkable strength and large dimensions. Unfortunately, later the weight gain picked up a lot. By the time they came of age, Benny and Billy weighed more than 300 kg each. At the same time, the guys led a rather active lifestyle. They worked all day on the farm, and in their free time they rode bikes that seemed tiny next to such imposing riders. Later, the brothers took up wrestling. Unfortunately, even intense physical activity could not help them lose weight.

Billy passed away earlier (in 1979). Benny lived until 2001. The man was involved in the auction business for the last decades of his life. Benny and Billy managed to enter the Guinness Book of Records as the largest twin brothers. At that time, the weight of the men was 328 and 338 kg.
