    That looks like it might have been taken during the filming of The Princess Bride. It was a 1987 film probably done in '86.

    I watched a documentary on him. He had a big red at his house and they showed him riding it around. He was actually pretty depressed before he died and they said one thing he loved was riding his atc on his property. I thought it was pretty cool.

    I am sure this was taken during the filming of the "Princess Bride" in 1986, Andre is wearing the same outfit worn in the movie. Kool pic ! I never seen this before.
