This one almost managed to slip under the radar - the trailer for Andre : Heart of the Giant. At 7’4 and 540lb, he was truly unforgettable.
Ready to bend some steel? Grab a copy of the Diesel Crew's Bending eBook. Superb.

Andre may be unforgettable but after watching the trailer, the movie will be.
I shook Andre’s hand once as a kid after a match. It went up to my elbow!

Yes, I hope the movie’s better than the trailer. It’d be great to bring him to a new audience. Not just ‘old guys’ like us :)
