Obese man left helpless
A MAN weighing 34 stone was saved by his drinking friends after lying helpless on the floor of his flat in Germany for a week over the New Year.
The man fell while he was getting out of bed and broke his leg.
Because of his size, he was unable to get himself up and get help. His cries for help went unnoticed at his block of flats in Mannheim.
However, regulars at his pub discovered him on Monday evening after they missed him at their watering hole.
A fire department team eventually rescued the obese man and transported him to hospital.
