Man Prefers Forklift to Walking

Four years is a long time, but imagine sitting in a room for that amount of time and not becoming gigantic. Well, a man in Lansing, Michigan did just that, and he was finally removed from his home by a forklift when his nurse thought his health was in danger and he needed to be taken to the hospital.

Now, I realize that the man, who suffers from Prader-Willi Syndrome, a rare genetic disorder that creates a chronic hunger feeling that can lead to overeating and life-threatening obesity, may not be able to completely control his situation. However, when diagnosed with this disorder you would think maybe he would try and combat it with some walking, or maybe a few salads. Instead, he had a blue tarp over his head while being removed from a hole in the side of his house on a forklift.
