In the 70s of the 20th century, on the top of the exciting North American wrestling arena, a superstar suddenly emerged, he is Andrey Rosimov, a giant man who is 2.24 meters tall and weighs more than 480 kilograms, and is enthusiastically called "The Beast" and "Giant Machine" by fans.
From the moment he stepped onto the wrestling stage, André used his breathtaking physique and otherworldly strength to ruthlessly crush his opponents and win one victory after another.
The audience was deeply amazed by Andrea's sculptural body. Every time he steps into the ring, the cameras on the scene will not hesitate to focus on this tall and mighty giant, recording every drop of his hard work and dedication.
People couldn't help but marvel at his incredible strength and cheer enthusiastically for his fearless fighting spirit on the field.
In matches, Andre has always used his massive body to keep his opponents firmly under control until he finally defeats them completely, which is exactly his unwavering belief and relentless pursuit of victory.
As time went on, Andre's reputation in the North American wrestling world grewed. His unique personality and outstanding strength have made him the focus of attention on the field.
The audience is eagerly awaiting his wonderful appearance. André never disappointed, and over the next 15 years, he built a winning streak like no other, earning the title of "King of Wrestling."
However, behind this dazzling achievement, there is actually a bitter process of tenacious struggle against the disease. For years, Andre has struggled to the death with a rare genetic disorder called acromegaly.
The disease caused his body to be in a state of overgrowth at all times, giving him an unparalleled physique, but it also brought endless suffering.
seems to be an indestructible "giant machine", but it is tormented by illness in its heart. On the field, Andre always showed a resolute and scrappy attitude, and did not show the slightest expression of pain.
Once the tournament was over and everyone was gone, the legendary giant was alone in the corner, leaning on the bottle, sipping as if he could forget every inch of pain in his body for a while.
Andre was born into an unremarkable farm family. At a young age, he showed a tall stature far beyond his peers and a strong figure that was different from ordinary people, but his family did not pay much attention to this, thinking that this was a natural phenomenon that children must experience when they are in the stage of adolescence.
However, in the year that Andre turned 15, his height broke through the astonishing two meters!
Faced with their son's jaw-dropping height, they had to take André to a local hospital in the hope of finding out what had happened.
After a thorough and detailed examination, the doctors finally revealed a diagnosis that shocked the whole family - Andre was suffering from an extremely rare genetic disorder called "acromegaly".
The distinctive feature of this condition is that the patient's hormone secretion is abnormally vigorous, which in turn promotes the rapid development of various parts of the body, making it much larger than the average person.
Although in the early stages of the disease, patients are usually not bothered by other obvious symptoms other than abnormal body shape. However, as time passes, as the internal organs and joints cannot bear the excessive load, various complications will come one after another, until the end of life.
For a 15-year-old boy, this is undoubtedly a blow like a thunderbolt from the clear sky. Coming from an unpretentious farm family, André's parents' only hope for him was to live a stable and happy life, but they never expected fate to play such a cruel joke.
Seeing that his son's body was growing at a visible speed every day, but he was helpless, the whole family fell into unprecedented pain and despair.
Since then, a dark cloud known as "acromegaly" has hung over André's life, blocking out the sunshine and joy he should have enjoyed.
As a childish teenager, he was forcibly pushed to a road of no return destined to be full of ups and downs.
With the discernment and precision of his acclaimed agent Vincent McMahon, Andre made a name for himself in North America and was instantly regarded as the undisputed wrestling prodigy.
At that time, Vinson already had a lot of wrestlers in and around the Americas, and he saw at a glance that Andre, a young man with great talent and physique, had the appearance of a king, so he decisively signed a contract with him.
As a master agent, Vincent is dedicated to the cultivation of Andre. With his meticulous planning and operation, Andre quickly made a name for himself in and out of the wrestling world, making him the center of attention.
As a contestant who once rose to prominence under the stage name "Gene Frey", André resolutely abandoned his past stage name after joining Vincent's team and started anew under his real name "Andrey", showing his unprecedented confidence.
Every time Andre stepped into the ring, the atmosphere was always very hot. The eyes of the crowd were all attracted by his immense figure, and everyone was looking forward to his stunning performance on the field.
André never disappointed, and he always beat his opponents with his extraordinary strength and perseverance, winning a flood of applause and cheers from the audience.
However, just as Andre's career was in full swing, the demon known as "Acromegaly" descended on his life again.
As his condition progressed, his knees, spine and other key areas began to suffer from unspeakable pain, so much so that he could only rely on alcohol to anesthetize his nerves and relieve the pain caused by the pain.
When the curtain came down on the fierce competition, André would return to his hotel room alone and drink alone in front of an empty bottle. Sometimes, the man, known as the "alcohol giant", would even drink 156 cans of beer in one sitting, until he was drunk and fell asleep.
To outsiders, it may seem like he is enjoying the joy of victory, but who can understand the endless pain hidden deep inside him?
In the most astonishing time, Andre completely indulged in alcohol in the corridor of the hotel, and collapsed to the ground, covered in alcohol. The staff tried to carry him back to his room, but they were surprised to find that his huge body could barely lift him, so they had to wrap him in a blanket to protect him from the cold wind.
As we all know, the legendary giant who once created the myth of undefeated for 15 years, the absolute concentration and perseverance shown on the field are undoubtedly a true portrayal of his true appearance!
In the complex choice between pain and ideals, André finally chose to persevere. Faced with a doctor's strong recommendation for surgery, he firmly rejected it because it would mean saying goodbye to the wrestling career he had devoted his life to.
Therefore, in the years that followed, even though his body often wailed from severe pain, he still did not flinch, and relied on his perseverance to write brilliant chapters on the field again and again.
While he was involved in the filming of the famous film "The Princess Bride", André was invited to play a small and insignificant role, playing a kind giant.
Surprisingly, despite his large build, he was unable to lift his thin figure on the scene, and André himself was deeply crushed by this feeling of powerlessness and helplessness.
At that time, he was already sick and bruised. This once omnipotent "monster" is now in the twilight of his life, and he can't even bear the weight of an actress.
This sense of helplessness made André realize for the first time that his career might be coming to an end.
For Andrey, this was undoubtedly a heavy blow. Just as his career is gradually declining, the company has begun to mobilize resources to fully support Hook, intending to make him a new generation of idols after Andre.
André worked hard all his life to realize the dream he had been striving for for many years, but he didn't expect to give everything up now.
The anger, helplessness, and anguish in my heart reached an unprecedented peak at this moment. At one point, Andrei even had the idea of giving up everything and staying away from the industry that pushed him to the altar and spurned him.
However, he hesitated when he thought that doing so would not only fail his years of hard work, but also shatter his friend Hook's dreams.
At that critical moment when his life was at stake, André resolutely made a heroic decision! In order to prevent Hooke's hard work from falling short, and to help his friends realize his unwavering ideals, he was determined to forge ahead, even if there was only the last glimmer of hope.
This astonishing determination marks the end of Andre's life. Every day to come, he will endure the test of life and death, and in his own unique way, he will continue to fight in the ring for that supreme honor.
All the efforts are to enable his best friend to successfully achieve his last long-cherished wish.
Therefore, in one life-and-death battle after another, Andre successfully completed the last magnificent chapter of his life with his firm belief in friendship and tenacious will for life.
When Hook Hogan finally stands on top of the top and reaps everything he dreamed of, behind him is the glorious road that Andre forged with his own blood and life.
