WTF Are People Saying
Charlie D on Can You Herp With All the Colo… Hoff on Nimoy Baggins Herp on Sexy Kitty Tubtimes Herp on Scariest Game Show Ever! Herp on Diving In The Forest
$200 on the fat one
@bobo
careful, the lanky one has a big reach advantage!
@ Bob Jones – The tall one may have a long reach but the fat one has a low center of gravity…
I’ll bet the same amount on both of them… one of them has a better chance to win so i HAVE to win something.
Fatty and Skinny went to bed.
Fatty rolled over,
and Skinny was dead.
true art
Bowling ball meets pin…
There is a certain sepia grace to this picture I cannot help but admire… it almost seems to be in slow motion, but of course, it isn’t moving at all. I almost want a poster of this in my room.
Who’s with me? Isn’t this image just fantastic??
I would love a poster as well…
i agree… it’s uncompromisingly beautiful….
quite agree
agreed, agreed.
a work of art.
“Gerald, must we fight like this? I.. I still love you.”
“I know Tristram, but i’m tall… and you’re round.. what would people think?”
“Look into my eyes and tell me you don’t love me!”
“I can’t. I do. But no… it must be this way. To the death!”

Fade out to Katchaturian’s “Theme from Onedin Line”
left-right-left-right, uppercut uppercut.
The photographer captures on film the moment the tall one realizes, “I don’t want to do this. He doesn’t want to do this. I do however feel like punching the photographer in the face…”
I want to roll the big one into ten skinny ones and make HUMAN TEN PIN BOWLING!
Matter Eater Lad VS The Elongated Man : Golden Age.
This photo is so cool. xD I’m willing to bet that this is an old cabinet card from the freak shows. They certainly fit the parts!
If they follow the no-hit-below-the-belt rule, the round guy is SOL.
I wonder what town they’re in?
It’s actually a picture from an old family album. It’s the Sealy Posture Pedic bowling balls Great great great Grandfather and the Sealy bowling pins Ggg Grandfather.
Wait! Why the skinny guy is wearing tights?
Just as important, where did they find tights to fit him?@Undead
its the foundation of muy thai you idiots!
Freakin’ Awesome.
Modern day foxy boxing ???
I agree…I hope skinny is wearing a cup!
What’s up with the grass on the set of this picture? Was the director like, “wait a minute, wait a minute…this set just doesn’t look authentic…hey Roger, grab those two strips of sod…that’s it…Yea! now we got it! Action!!”
“But I can’t look into your eyes. I can only see the top of your head.”
Look its King Hippo!
Fatty Fatty Boom a Latty
This is the way he goes
He is so big around his waste he cannot see his toes..
This is Mr. Skinny Linny
See his long lean face
Instead of a regular suit of clothes
He wears an umbrella case
jack sprat could eat no fat, his husband could eat no lean…wait a minute
this is so staged.. that background is sooo fake….
that’s not a real tree.. he cant be that fat.
Your mom’s staged, BoneFish. >.>
This is just ridiculous. Hella long legs.
It’s authentic Victorian, so yes, the background is fake. The skinny guy is George Moore, and he was a 7’2″-tall circus giant. The fat man’s name is Fred Howe and he supposedly weighed 435 pounds. Both were circus performers and they staged a number of pictures like this. Here’s another:

I’ve been meaning to put together a page about them but information is scarce.
Do you have any views of these performers that you would be willing to part with? I’d love to add some of these cabinet cards to my collection.
This is the earliest picture of Jake and Ellwood Blues.
The tall one kinda looks like someone just kicked his puppy.. :[ !!
lmao!1 +1
@Final Judge of WTF
This is wht happens when Tim burton gets the rights to a Butterbean movie….
Who owns this cabinet card and are you willing to part with it? I’d like to add it to my collection.
Thanks,
D.
