Answer 2

I think you are talking about Robert Earl Hughes.

Big boy Robert Earl Hughes, who was born in 1926 in Illinois, started bursting his shirts as a toddler. His parents worked hard to keep him clothed and fed. They watched their son double his weight more than four times from the age of six to the age of 25 – from 92 kg to 406 kg (203–896 lb). At his death in 1958 he topped the scales at an amazing 484 kg (1,067 lb) and was buried in a coffin the size of a piano case.

-- edit --
No, I am wrong. Robert Earl Hughes was the record holder back when I was a teenager and soaking up trivia.

tatto_lover_girl is correct - his record has since been broken.
Is this a good thing or a bad thing? :-)
