Jon Brower Minnoch (1941 - 1983) of Bainbridge Island, WA; 6 ft 1 in, estimated as weighing "probably more than" 1400 lbs in 1979, at which point it took 13 people just to roll him over in bed. Minnoch, like many of the heaviest people, suffered from massive edema: his weight was augmented by at least 900 lbs of fluid at its peak. The former taxi driver had always been unusually heavy, reaching 400 lbs in 1963, 700 lbs in 1966, and 975 lbs in 1976, but he claimed to have been in no way handicapped by his size until a 500-calorie diet sapped his muscle strength and left him at the brink of death. Subsequent hospitalization brought him down to 476 lbs in 1981, mostly through the loss of 12 to 14 pounds of fluid per week. He was readmitted later that year after regaining 200 lbs in seven days. Although physicians at University Hospital in Seattle persisted in treating him with a 1,200-calorie diet, he weighed about 800 lbs at the time of his death. Other details of his physical condition were withheld from the press. Minnoch was the father of two children by his 110-lb wife, Jeannette.

I was unable to find the current fattest living man. Perhaps with more research someone can find him.

It's kinda ironic that the tallest man ever isn't also the heaviest man ever. The taller somebody gets the larger their entire body would grow. A human's body mass (and volume) vs. their height is a cubic relation. Therefore, most a person's mass should theoreticially come from their height or the size of their frame. Robert Wsdlow (8,11") weighed roughly 500 lbs and yet you get this guy who's at least 2 feet shorter and yet weighs more? That guy is obscencely fat! An abnomination! The guy is so fat that he almost looks like something from a sci-fi novel!
