The coolest thing about this story isn't the fact even a morbidly obese person can find true love, but that he drives around town in an automotive bed contraption. If we could all drive around in our beds, there would be no war... except for maybe pillow fight road rage. From BBC:
The world's heaviest man says he is to marry his girlfriend later this month after losing nearly half his original body weight.
Mexican Manuel Uribe said he and Claudia Solis would wed in his home town of Monterrey on 26 October.
The 43-year-old entered the Guinness Book of Records in 2006 after tipping the scales at 560kg (88 stones).
Manuel, who has lost around 250kg (39 stones), said he would be steering clear of the wedding cake.
[...] Manuel Uribe has attributed his weight loss to the love and encouragement he has received from Claudia, whom he has known for four years. The couple have been engaged for two years.He is currently only able to leave his house by being towed through the streets on his specially-made bed - and dreams of being able to walk again.
