I remember watching him on late night re-runs of the Wild,Wild,West before I ever saw the Bond films.

RIP, this guy was quite entertaining to me as kid.   74 is a pretty good run for someone with a pituitary disorder or whatever it was that made him such a giant.

For some reason I thought he had died years ago. 

Well...74 is a good run.  God bless.   :pray

He was great in Butch Cassidy & The Sundance Kid and The Longest Yard.

Last year, he was at a small Con a few miles from where I'm taking classes. Had a good conversation with him, was a very nice man.

I remember him from Pale Rider.   I thought these folks always kicked the bucket at a young age.

Ironically I am just now watching MST3K right now and they are spoofing "Eegah" which starred him. Sad he is gone.

Holy cow you're right. I just looked at IMDB and it was Ted Cassidy (Lurch). I always thought it was Kiel.
