What up with these guys?They have been in two episodes I can remember.

I seem to remember something about these rather large twins on a show in
the late 70s or possibby early 80s on an old TV show called REAL PEOPLE(I
think?)

Someone has to have a better memory then me.

thanks.

I don't know their names, but their picture used to be on the back cover of the
Guiness book of records. I think they're the world's fattest twins.

If you look in your Guinnes World record book, you would recognize these
two as the world's fattest twins.

So there!

They're Billy and Benny McCrary, who, according to the Guinness Book of
World Records, are the world's largest twins. They each weighed over 700
lbs. The Guinness photo always showed them on motorcycles, so that's
probably the inspiration.

All the above is true. These guys are especially well known in the south and use to appear regularly on the tv show Hee Haw.

The fat twins on motorcycles are from the Guiness Book of World Records.
I'm pretty sure its for heaviest twins. (Sure as hell can't think what
else they would be in for)

The two fat guys were in the Guiness Book of word records for the fattest
twins. I don't know about real People but I wouldn't doubt it. That show
was awesome so was "That's incredible" Sort of like Fox but with the
seventies styles
