700-Pound Man Takes Outing ... With Forklift by sweet east pearl

Manuel Uribe, better known as "Meme", who once tipped the scales at 560kg, was hauled from his home  on a forklift and loaded onto a platform truck for the weekend day trip.

Manuel Uribe traveled to the shore of a lake in northern Mexico without ever leaving his specially designed bed. A forklift hoisted the bed onto the truck, which then hauled him to the lake, where he snacked on fish and vegetables and joked with a local boat operator.

Looking at the boatman's small craft, Uribe joked, "Too bad I can't get on it — it would sink."
