"Seven and a half foot actor Matthew McGrory is dead at the age of 32.

The star of Big Fish is believed to have died from natural causes.

He was in the midst of working on a biopic of wrestler Andrew the Giant just before he died.

He's also played roles in Men in Black II, House of 1000 Corpses and The Devil's Rejects.

McGrory holds a Guiness Book Record in 1998 for his height of 7' 6" and wearing a size 29 1/2 shoe"

4. Whoa. I just met the guy about two weeks ago.

One of the local channels was doing an interview with him across the street from where I work. They were done as I was passing by so I just walked up and said hi. He was really nice.

5. Natural causes at age 32?

It seems to me that giants die young fairly frequently.

RIP Matt.

RIP, Mr. McCrory.
