Got me thinking. Two things:
1) Why do people on whom these uber-fatties are dependent keep on feeding them? What good is it doing?
2) If they stopped eating, literally stopped, and only drunk water, would this do them any harm in the short term?
On the basis they're too fat to make it to the fridge what's to lose?
Strange minds think alike. We ask the exact same questions.1) Why do people on whom these uber-fatties are dependent keep on feeding them? What good is it doing?

Who the hell keeps bringing them food!?!?!? Or, if not stopping bringing them food, just bring them healthy food.

Where does he get the money from to pay for everything, especially the food?
I didn't think being overweight was a disability requiring government handouts, or is it?
Do you reckon he can "walk 100 yards without severe discomfort"? That's Incapacity Benefit and might possibly make him eligible for the Higher Rate Mobility Component of Disability Living Allowance (which is the one that means he could be entitled to a "free" car under the Motability Scheme), plus if he needs help with "personal care" such as getting dressed, going to the loo, coking meals etc, then there are Carer's Allowances and so on. I didn't think being overweight was a disability requiring government handouts, or is it?
Assuming he doesn't work as a result of being immobile, there's Jobskeekers' Allowance or alternatively Disability Living Allowance. As that's not much to live on, chuck in some Income Support. If he lives in rented accomodation and as a result of not being able to work, can't pay the rent, then Housing Benefit pays that, Council Tax Benefit pays that bill...
...etc.
And that's how we ride the Gravy Train

Where do you think? He can't walk, lift himself up, feed himself. The cost to care for him, feed him clothe him costs us the tax payer £100k every year. I didn't think being overweight was a disability requiring government handouts, or is it?
Man the harpoons!
ts himself. And they change his nappy.

I heard i while ago , i scientist, did a experiment with a servearly obbese person; and only gave them water, no food what so ever, for 1 year 1 month.1) Why do people on whom these uber-fatties are dependent keep on feeding them? What good is it doing?
2) If they stopped eating, literally stopped, and only drunk water, would this do them any harm in the short term?
On the basis they're too fat to make it to the fridge what's to lose?
The scientist also said that the average person could also survive without food - only water- for two months.
Genuinly can not longer remember where i got that from though...
Btw, what made you ask? Is there a program on it at the momment or something?
