10 Wrestling Road Stories You Won't Believe
8. Andre Lifts A Car...
Standing at around 7 foot tall (although usually billed as being 7,4), Andre The Giant left an indelible impression on pro wrestling. He could drink 150+ beers, or an entire crate of wine, in one sitting - and he could eat up to 12 large steaks, or even 15 whole lobsters.
The original giant of wrestling was well known for being a passive, almost gentle type of guy. He could be moody and sullen at times, but, by all accounts, he wasn't an especially violent man. However, when angered, Andre was nothing short of a force of nature. Why any man would try and test his luck against Andre is, quite frankly, beyond us, but from time to time, people (read: morons) did just that.
On one such occasion, four men decided to prove themselves by starting a fight with Andre. Once Andre (who was enjoying a quiet drink at the time) finally reacted to their provocation, the bullies turned tail and fled, but the riled-up Giant wasnt about to let it end there!
The four would-be attackers hid in their car, believing themselves to be safe from The Giant's wrath. However, Andre responded by literally picking the car up and turning it completely over, which probably ruined their day in a major way.
