A man who once weighed 55-stone and was considered Britain's 'fattest man' has died aged 37. Matthew Crawford, whose family are from Nottinghamshire, made headlines when he took up an entire bay on a ward and four hospital beds because he was too obese to move.
As reported by the Mirror, was also uproar in 2018 when it was revealed his care had been costing King’s Mill Hospital thousands of pounds. It was claimed he habitually ordered pizzas and Chinese takeaways to be eaten in hospital - something he denied.
He was finally discharged from the hospital a year later into a specially-adapted care facility. A friend said footy-obsessed Matthew had joined Slimming World in a bid to lose weight for good.
