The fattest man in Colombia had to call on a team of 20 men and a fire truck to take him to a weight-loss clinic so that he could receive urgent life-changing treatment. After gorging on a diet of junk food for decades Oscar Vasquez Morales, 44, who clocks in at 63 stones - around 400kg or 882lbs - was warned that if he did not lose weight his condition would cost him his life. In desperation he reached out to a local heart foundation, in the city of Palmira, and thankfully its team of specialists agreed to help him with a series of assessments and tests at their centre. However, before he began his vital treatment he faced another obstacle - leaving his house. Giant: Colombian Oscar Vasquez Morales, 44, had to call on the help of a local fire department to move him to a weight loss clinic where he will undergo vital treatment Weight: Mr Morales clocks in in at 63 stones (400kg) and cannot go to the toilet or dress himself without help Mr Morales needs assistance carrying out simple day-to-day activities such as going to the toilet and dressing himself and hasn't walked unaided for years. Leaving his home was always going to be a monumental task, but fortunately, when his local fire department heard about his plight they rushed to his aid and helped him on his way. He will now undergo treatment from nutritionists, a psychologist and physicians before facing gastric surgery.
