He went from weighing 180 at age 18 to weighing 700 at the time of his death. So sad.

That’s fucking nuts. Honestly how is it possible to gain 400lbs+ in less than 10 years.
Like how much do you have to eat.

He got an insurance payout for $500,000 due to falling at a city construction site, if I remember correctly. He started buying his whole family and block Red Lobster and Olive Garden. Got used to the amount of food he was having and kept it up. He says the lack of a father in his life was the biggest factor.

Later, he received a large settlement from the city stemming from an incident in 1976, where a five-year-old Rios broke his leg while playing in a park.[11] Using his settlement money, Rios married his high school sweetheart, Liza, and the two moved into a home together. Rios struggled with depression stemming from his turbulent childhood, and turned to food as a way of coping with it. Between the ages of 18 and 21, Rios’ weight ballooned from 180lbs to 300lbs, and he was consequently unable to tie his own shoes.[10][7]
