I love Andre The Giant stories... always looking for a new one... so fortunate to have been able to see him wrestle in person once... I was completely in shock... never seen a human being so big.
Saw Andre in a 20 man Battle Royal and saw him take on Ivan Putski and Nikolai Volkoff in a 20 on 1 match He was a beast! Springfield years later had the Big Show and Great Khali on the same night in different matches. These monsters were all humbling
I was there too. When I was a kid, these guys were real, the characters were real, the stories were real, they will always be apart of my childhood, legends forever.
I heard Andre told Stud to stop entering the ring by stepping over the top rope and Stud ignored him and pissed him off. Stud spent the rest of his career trying to get back in Andre's good grace's but it wasn't going to happen
John Studd was 6'10 and close to 400lbs, if you believe the stats. Even if that's typical wrestling exaggerating, he was a gigantic dude. For him to be terrified of Andre says a lot.
@@NemeanLion- i used to work in a bar in LA in the 80s where the Lakers would go sometimes. There was a mark on the wall next to the door. Supposedly Magic Johnson put it there when some girl asked him how tall he was. So that would be around 6'9". Well, John Studd walked by it one time and the mark was at the level of his nose. So I could believe he was legit 6'10, 6'11.

Story is hilarious! Slaughter is a legend in his own right.
He pinned Warrior.
It's so good how just the side stories continue to entertain after all these years.
I remember Saturday mornings watching Wwf and GI joe with Sargeant slaughter

Yes sir 87 i think
SGT Slaughter looks EXACTLY like my Drill SGT from US Army Basic training at Ft. Leonardwood, Missouri. Seriously, they could be twins.

Thes men were all giants to me. I truly miss the wrestling of their days. Oh how I marveled at their performances.
The sergeant was one of the best champions ever. He is one of the last living guys who pinned Warrior.

Stud was the only wrestler that I saw* wrestle Andre’ that did not look out of proportion.
*Philly Spectrum
Yes Stud was definitely up there huge man 400 easily no way 300🤘
@@leebest1a470 I used to live in Philly way back in the day saw wrestling and many concerts at the Spectrum 🤘
John Studd was supposedly a peak 6’ 6” 1/2. Please stop believing pro wrestling billings.

What's the saying? Dont wake a sleeping giant. R.I.P. andre
Andre was so legendary - earlier in career, he was an awesome worker
And he pinned Warrior.
Sarge was a real deal old school wrestler all about the business so much so people claim fake valor lol Go Joe
Fantastic story! Lol
Hey!!! Sargent Slobber!! He’s the Jay Leno of wrestling! Lol. Jk. But this man was brutal in the 1980s! Much respect Sir
sargent slaughter comes across as such a humble guy
BIG JOHN marked himself: By Stepping over the Top Rope...
Slaughter was the first wrestler to have an entrance tune if I'm not mistaken
Gorgeous George has to go to public circumstances of the day
Sgt Slaughter🤘🇺🇲🤘
check out the guy picking his nose at 0:34.
Jim norton is my favorite -lil connor peterson
Literally woke a sleeping giant... that's hilarious
lol!
Honestly clicked thinking it was will sasso in makeup
Super Destroyer mark 2!
Dead Cross shirt in the wild!(Mike Patton heads know)
He could put em down lol.
Poor Studd...
Professional wrestling : food for the 65 IQ crowd.
Holy shit that's what Sam looks like now??? What the fuck, he looks like Billy Crystal in those shit DeNiro movies.
Go Joe!
I wanna hear Sgt slaughter sing motor head Songs
W.T.F. 🤣😂🤣
Never trust someone who steals Valor.
It's a act you bitch shutup
@@coreyandreas730 How about "never trust a Seahags fan". I think that's a better statement.
It's part of the show, dipshit. They also don't really hate each and slam each other on their heads.
😷..
Somehow I don’t believe this story.
there he is, perhaps the most boring guest EVER. and that's saying something for this show.
Alatina Thucklemuggin This show is a waste
I'd take this over yet another interview with a vacuous porn star any day.
