World's fattest man to wed

The world's fattest man, Manuel Uribe, will wed his long-term girlfriend this month / AP

The two, who met in 2004, will marry in a civil ceremony at a location still to be decided, the AP said. Mr Uribe is unable to leave his bed and any outing involves hoisting him onto the back of a truck. This year Guinness World Records declared Mr Uribe the world's heaviest man. The 43-year-old has shed about 250kg since his highest weight of 560kg in 2006.

Well, fat people need love too...
