2. Andre The Giant
While Haystacks Calhoun opened the door for future behemoths in wrestling, Andre the Giant is often seen as not just a behemoth, but a giant who inspired a legion of towering and monstrous performers. Billed as being over seven-feet tall, Andre suffered from pituitary gigantism. Due to his tremendous size and imposing presence, Andre was known as the Eighth Wonder of the World and successfully maintained his moniker through impressive feats of strength and unforgettable encounters with the likes of Big John Studd, King Kong Bundy, and, of course, Hulk Hogan. In the circus, there's always a resident giant, the man that people are awe-inspired by because they seem so impossibly large; to the point where it makes you and everyone you know look like an infant by comparison. Like the giants of the circus or the carnival, Andre could make audience members shake in their boots while making them stare in amazement just by entering the venue ... proving to be an instant attraction.
