Fattest Man in UK Dies: Carl Thompson at 33 Weighing 910 Pounds

He was Britain' fattest man at 65 stone. But he died just a few hours after he asked for apple crumble and ice cream from his favourite takeaway., according to coolestgist.

After Carl Thompson died, the emergency services were called, and took long hours to remove him from his home yesterday morning. To accomplish it, they used a small crane to carry his body out through a balcony upstairs, and closed the road outside.

He was 33 years old from Dover, and had been living inside the house for a year, after his doctors warned that he had to lose 70 per cent of his body-weight to remain alive.

It was last night that the owner of his favourite takeaway, who brought food to his bedside, using the key to his flat, sent him his final food order.

Just a few weeks before he was dead, his best customer reduced the number of dishes he bought in order to reduce.

Merdad Mohebbi, owner of nearby Q Pizza, said: "I can't believe it. He had cut right down on what he was eating. He was only ordering one or two things a day. When I took the order he seemed happy enough. He was talking about how he was going to the hospital and they were going to do tests for him. He was full of life."

Carl had thrown a public appeal last month, pleading for help to bring down his weight. He explained that he wanted to lose weight naturally, not using a gastric band.

"I will go anywhere which will help me lose weight. It's taken over my life. I can't move, I can't cook, and it's time for that to end," according to iol.

In 2012, Carl's mother died, throwing him into deep grief, and making him turn to junk food in order to fight his sorrow. But he ballooned out from 30 stone to 65 in three years. He was not able to care for himself.

He would eat 10,000 calories every day, which was four times the usual amount. So he overate Chinese takeaways and pizzas brought home and also spent £10 a day on chocolate.

He could not walk or even dress himself, and was looked after by an NHS carers team.

He lived on "incapacity benefits and disability allowances" and had not earned his living since he was 17 years, spending £200 a week on takeaways and online food shopping.

When he appealed for help, he said: "Any professional opinion or other knowledge would be great. I've had a lot of that coming in anyway but the more the better. I could die, that's the bottom line if I keep going the way I do. Because of what I eat I'm missing out on everything in life."
