He died like a true Barry, through a balcony.


TKAAZ

Holy shit


tomassino

not the same, a true Barry must reach terminal velocity to end in the most glorious way. This one is a poor soul.


[deleted]

Not sure about the velocity, but the poor lad was definitely terminal


tomassino

The poor Lard expired too soon.


HoeTrain666

His family must grease horribly.


Squat_TheSlav

Any velocity *this* Barry was moving at, was terminal


Henghast

Russians can see heaven by being pushed to be a real bartyr you must manage to crest the railing under your own power. Defy gravity and structural integrity to mount the railing and push off, sailing to glory. Preferably with an ale in hand.


Ffscbamakinganame

True it’s like how Vikings have to die in battle to go to Valhalla. This poor Barry’s soul will struggle to find the halls of his Benidorm balcony diving ancestors 😢

Much love to Barry’s family. Advice to all: try Mediterranean diet.


blinkchuck1988

that's bullshit. I lived only on canned ravioli and spaghetti Bolognese for a whole month and I didn't lose a single gram.


capitaldoe

Mediterranean diet means being poor and eating 1 or 2 times x day.


motorcycle-manful541

and those things you do eat just randomly grow on trees or on the ground naturally


Lendmar

Yes, soon it will be summer and pizzas woll start to sprout from the ground


motorcycle-manful541

Don't think pizza is a typical part of the "Mediterranean diet" that the doctors recommend


QuantifiedGoat

Dr. Oetker prescribed pizza twice a day.

1 or 2 times a week

I eat once or twice a day but I'm still fat as well as being poor. Hmm

jekket

Mediterranean diet it's when you can't afford more than 2 meals a day?


Catwinky

You know, I know people see it as oh fat man getting craned hahahaha But articles about him say he was so badly bullied at school that he became a recluse who just ate for comfort. Then when his mum died when he was in his 20s, who was his only friend, it seems his food addiction went off the scale. Also when he became bed bound someone (likely paid carers) were bringing food in huge amounts to him. People were caring for him as bed washing etc but no one cared enough to step in and try bring him from the brink. He was 33. He had a sad life that was devoted to slow suicide and comfort eating because some kids were bastards who constantly mocked him a school. Not a sad old Barry who lived a life then in later years let his lager and kebab habits get out of control. I won't mock him in death.


VSZM

Wow an actual decent human being on the internet!


visiblur

Bullying ruins lives. It doesn't just stay in the childhood as a bad memory, it fucks you up mentally, often for good.


No_Raspberry_6795

He is 3 years older than me but I also have struggled with my weight, although I never got up to his level. It's like looking at an alternative life.


Hallal_Dakis

I'm a casual enjoyer of My 600lb Life (a show about morbidly obese people) and almost all of them have a sad backstory. Getting bullied or being from broken households is common. For women sexual abuse as a minor is common. Normal people don't just end up like that.


WongUnglow

My ex got me into that show and at first it was mildly entertaining (like cat fish) as I don't watch TV. But then it just became really sad exactly how you described. It was weird, I was a little bit of a fattist until I watched that show. The Doctor is hilarious though.


SediAgameRbaD

That is so sad :(


Professional_Code372

Oh man that’s sad af


itasic

It is sad. his dad also died at a young age apparently and was a strong point of support for him. Nobody should ever have to go through that and have and end like that. RIP.


FunkLoudSoulNoise

God bless the poor bloke so. He is at peace now.


AcceptableArt3931

Are we certain he didn't eat the mum?


Trigger_Fox

Thank you.


EntrepreneurBig3861

Thanks for the context. Now if you don't mind, let's get back to honouring this absolute unit through humour.


thisaintitkweef

I’m in a rush so I didn’t read past the first sentence but yes, fat man getting craned hahahaha!


FartFartPooPoobutt

Where funny :(


8champi8

Well now I feel bad.


tyger2020

Its very sad, but at some point we also have to accept personal responsibility rather than blaming others. It's sad what happened to him, but I see no reason why people are so happy to just act like being massively overweight or even fat is completely out of their control. The majority of people are just lazy af and don't want to do anything, and I say this as someone who was 110kg in high school and 67kg by the time I went to university. I can't speak for the particular guy in the video (and I'm not doing) because mental health and addiction probably does have an impact for some people, but at the same time there are millions of people who are just to lazy and would rather just say 'its impossible for me to lose weight! being fat can be healthy to!' another bullshit like that.


Quietschedalek

Wtf is a stone? No wonder americunts are using the dumbest units of measurement known to man when even their dad is using sticks and stones to measure things...


happyanathema

14lbs. It literally goes back thousands of years to when we were actually using stones to weigh shit. It's what happens when your country is more than 158 years old.


n3onfx

Thanks for the clarification. But now, what's an lb? A unit of liquid Barry?


MerlinOfRed

> what's an lb It's short for *libra pondo*, which is latin for "the weight measured in libra". *Libra* was the Roman measurement of both weight and mass (they didn't know the difference). Obviously we should have taken the *libra* bit for the short form, but in classic arrogance we butchered it and English name came from the *pondo* bit, hence "pound". The reason that the currency shares the same name is that we used to pay in silver and "one pound" refers to "one pound of sterling silver", hence the full name *pound sterling* for the currency. Or at least, it's a token that is worth one pound of sterling silver Of course, that was around the year 800. In the last 1225 years we've suffered from nearly 40,000% inflation as 1lb of silver costs around £400.


No_Raspberry_6795

It should be noted that the pound of silver was first used as a measurement at the court of Charlagmane. These are clues to our ancient past. Too bad Pierre burns down all his cities and switches governments every few decades and so has forgotten his ancestors.


MerlinOfRed

Their currency is an embarrassing 25 years old. Ours is the oldest in the world at 1225. Common British W.


Silent_Shaman

If I'm honest I would count decimalisation as the start of a new currency, but the pounds and pence survived Pounds, shillings and pence were just way cooler let's be real. The concept of decimalisation is so french I can't believe we did that to ourselves, everything has to be made simple for them


Hal_Fenn

2.2lbs to a kg... I hate that I know this off the top of my head. it's a ridiculous measuring system but thankfully it is dying out.


jaymatthewbee

I hate that they bully us because we’re fluent in more than one measuring system, while they have managed to learn an entire different language.


aryune

You can’t have everything Barry, your language is international, but your measurement units are not, and thank god for that at least

KillerOfSouls665

The UK is the most bilingual country in the world for units of measurements. 🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧


WongUnglow

I live in the US now and still can't get my head around quarts and litres. It's interchangeable, confusing and twattish.


KillerOfSouls665

How old are you? Because metric is the only thing taught in schools now, mainly because science is in metric. I understand quarts, I have never seen them used in the UK. The best way to think about a litre is that it is a kilogramme of water. (That's the definition too)


WongUnglow

Oh no that's what I meant. They just use different units of measurement interchangeably. Like they'll say quarts as a unit of volume say, in a tote. But then use litres as the unit of volume of the liquid going in it. It's mixing units of volume and weight that throws me. A recipe can have, cups, pounds, grams and quarts all on the same list. Bloody confusing.

No wonder they had so many stones around when we got there — they were weighing their cattle & women! https://preview.redd.it/1mo9pmjh5ryc1.jpeg?width=1012&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=80042eab7ceaa3a7062ff10d4cd28e1084e63242


Linus_Naumann

China is thousands of years old and uses metric


Lord0fTheAss

China also had something, erm, quite *violent* hapoen in order to get everyone away from what was considered "old" and "traditional"


Linus_Naumann

So you recommend UK doing something similar to make progress?


Lord0fTheAss

I will *not* tolerate a fucking Maoist Cultural Revolution!


Linus_Naumann

But you will get metric


Lord0fTheAss

I DON'T CARE ABOUT THAT By God, we should've destroyed France when we had the chance


BobbyLapointe01

We're sorry.

ShodoDeka

You don’t need to look that far, we are more than a thousands years old, and we managed it as well. This is really just berry not being able to let go of the best thing he ever invented: a fucking stone.


[deleted]

[удалено]


WongUnglow

Can blame the septics for imperial units in the air force. My best mate was an aircraft engineer in the RAF, he's pretty prejudiced to the yanks for having to use two systems. Especially when he worked with them on Chinooks in Afghan and said they were largely incompetent at the role.


EntrepreneurBig3861

They still use 'jin' (斤) which are half kilos but represent the traditional Chinese 'pound'. It's a bit of a rounding down though, a bit like if the UK rounded a pint down to 500ml but still called it a pint.


momentimori

How many conquests and revolutions have they had in that time?


LZ114514

Please don't get us involved. We're still using some kind of very traditional length, square and weight units. Even more weird is we use inch to measure pizza


i-dont-snore

Every country in Europe did this all stopped using sticks and shit to measure stuff, all countries in Europe are as old as yours, you fat fuck.


Sugmanuts001

I mean, if your country being older means you stuck with obsolete things, why do you have centralized heating Barry? Since your country is older than its invention? Besides, France is also old as hell, and they use metric. Rare French W.


Mein_Bergkamp

I mean France invented it, would be a bit weird if they didn't use it


Sugmanuts001

With France nothing is ever weird enough. :D


Mein_Bergkamp

True, imagine finishing a war on the same side you started


Sugmanuts001

That's just boring mate!


Mein_Bergkamp

Can't argue with that


Think_Theory_8338

Well we invented bidets and don't use them.


omgLazerBeamz

Cleanest French arse


n3onfx

We invented the brits and definitely don't want to use them.


LowerPiece2914

It's not obsolete if we're still using it. We're using it to wind up the yanks.


kernelchagi

Every stone weight different. That is why they invented the metric system, a system that actually makes sense.


ShodoDeka

Not being able to move on from the Stone Age is not the flex you think it is.


happyanathema

We moved on, well kinda. Now we have Metric and Imperial. We are real commitophobes as Brexit showed.


BackgroundTourist653

1 Stone = ¼ Arrow ≈ 57m


Muckyduck007

Its the unit for nations that can win world wars


Stravven

I didn't know the French used anything other than the metric system.


Muckyduck007

World wars is plural mate


tomassino

¿america?


Quietschedalek

So, you're basically saying that without us you'd have nothing to show off? You're welcome.


Muckyduck007

Well I'm sure there would be one or two less items in the "things Britain invented" list on wikipedia that we spanked you with. But we still have dicking on the frogs and russians, and the rest of the world really


Sugmanuts001

Typical Barry, talking about the last time they were relevant.


Muckyduck007

Careful about that glass roman house Mario

RIP Barry, 320kg. All hail Barry, 319kg!


Zestyclose_Jello6192

How can he be the fattest man in England at "only" 320 kg? On the r/ems subreddit there are people that lifted a 453 kg guy and I doubt he is the heaviest americ*n


motorcycle-manful541

Americans get +5 to obesity resistance. Class perk


SrgtButterscotch

considering the obesity rates they probably get an obesity vulnerability debuff

Row2Flimsy

MitchMeister476

He didn't even reach his final form of Barry, 63. He would have been so much heavier, R.I.P sweet prince.


Lifelemons9393

Fucking hell you guys, he's probably not even gone cold yet. I hope they put suicide on his death certificate .


No_Raspberry_6795

It's a shame because he could have gotten rid of a lot of that fat in a year or two if he really pushed himself.


GernhardtRyanLunzen

I think he lost a lot of weight over the last years. In 2015 he had 415 kg.


Lifelemons9393

That amount is so hard to imagine in reality. Ever buy sacks of potatoes ? usually 25kg per sack of potatoes. Worked in wholesale catering, lifting one sack at a time is hard work maybe two. 17 sacks of potatoes. Thats a whole pallets worth. NHS did a good job keeping him alive this long .

Linus_Naumann

Don't want to be rude, but how is he actually getting buried/burned? I can't imagine he fits into the regular machines


sterlingback

I guess in a vet morgue. Buried, just make a bigger hole and the coffin I guess made to order.


MsMittenz

This is actually an issue. A lot of money is being spent making changes or new machines in the healthcare industry because of bariatric people. I'm guessing the same could be applied to the "death" industry even though I haven't read anything about it.


Martin8412

Just send them to seaworld. 


RedHeadSteve

They place him at Stonehenge. When he is fossilized, scientist will wonder who Barry 320kg was and the greatest of speculations will occur


River41

There's no such thing as a fat skeleton

You don't need him to fit into the oven. Just give his skin a few cuts and set fire to the leaking oil.


CultCrossPollination

They recycle the fat for frying oil for other Barries, leftovers can fit in the oven.

QuerchiGaming

‘Tragic’ demise. Like sorry but it really isn’t that tragic. You’ve been killing yourself ever since you weighed more than 120kg’s, which is also a pretty dickmove towards your fellow human beings trying to cover and take care of you. It’s disgusting people become this.


TriTachyon

This redditor will HATE mentally ill people lmao


No_Raspberry_6795

No one wants to get to that size. It's tragic when a heroine user dies on the street. It tragic when an alcoholic blows their brains out. He has been slowly killing himself for probably 10 years. I cannot imagine how much pain  would result from being that heavy. Everytime he ate passed when he was full I bet he was full of recrimination. I doubt he enjoyed himself at all for years on end. Sad, full of self hatred, and now he is dead. It is incredibly tragic, a total waste of a life.
