Now he is an interesting fellow. The most travelled man in Africa ? And that is quite some beard.

Yeah, very interesting character, lives in my area when he's not on some excursion. I stood behind him at a checkout once and he dwarfed me (I'm 6'2"), it's then that I noticed the size of his hands & fingers :shock:

[handy]

I've got a mate who's 6'10". He doesn't look anything like a wedge shaped body builder, but he is just large, his hands are huge. I was around at his place once & he was finishing off the building of a small wharf on one of the dams on his property. He was picking up railway sleepers in one hand!!!!!

That was when I realised just how strong Dave was.

He is also one of the small number of people that are large enough to actually be able to play a full sized double bass.

[matt_symes]

He was picking up railway sleepers in one hand!!!!!Blimey. :shock: A one man crane.

[handy]

Blimey. :shock: A one man crane.

Yep. That was some years ago now. He's now suffering from the degradation that the years bring to us all. (If we live long enough to enjoy the standard routine of cellular degeneration.)

Eish, he must have bear paws for hands. Would hate to have him give me a slap behind the head :D

[forrestcupp]

I voted for Alpheus Williams, the three-bearded man. He's in 3rd place.

This should be linked into the shaving thread currently going on.

Except it the opposite of shaving, it's NOT shaving and letting your beard grow out

[NMFTM]

Romeyn B. Ayres, his beard actually looks pretty legit.
