11 World’s Heaviest People

This is a list of the heaviest people recorded and it is limited to those individuals who weighed over 450 kg (990 lb; 71 st).

Mills Darden

Mills Darden (October 7, 1799 – January 23, 1857) is alleged to have been one of the largest men in history. He was widely reported to have stood approximately 7 feet 6 inches (2.29 m) tall and is said to have weighed around 1,000 to 1,100 pounds (450 to 500 kg) at his heaviest. If the reported figures are correct, Darden was 30 percent taller and about six times as heavy as the average American male of the 21st-century.

Top 10 Heaviest Land Mammals

Roaming around on the Earth are some truly enormous animals. Some that you wont be able to get a grasp on until you see them in person. Now to look at, there may beanimals you feel should have appeared on this list or the ordering of this list should have been different, but from the research I've done, the animals that appear here do seem to be the heaviest land mammals on the planet. 

Because it's difficult to get a completely accurate weight for all of these animals, we can't ask an elephant or rhino to stand still on a set of scales, there may be slight inaccuracies with the figures. However, they should all be within a close range of the real weight, research done has been able to get some remarkable results about these mammals.
