Already he is 7 ft. 9 ins. and weighs 255 lbs. When this enormous youth lost strength and just couldn't keep up with himself, he was admitted to Tokyo's University Hospila and there Professor Kejntaro Shimizu, the brain Surgeon, examined him and decided on an operation to try and halt his growth, which he claimed was due to abonnality in the pituitary gland.Even while waiting for the operation, Yoshimitsu increased by five inches. Although still in his hospital for observation, since the Operation Yoshimotsu has gained strength and his growth has almost halted.He is being treated with the hormones, as he was deficient almost entirely insex hormones. He can walk half-a-mile, and his intelligence quotient is 100. He has an enoroumous appetite, but a part from a certain natural Shyness at his size, is perfectly normal.
