Heres another one for your trike movie appearances. I saw this while watching the special features on the Princess Bride DVD. I think its the same picture as in the documentary on A&E. Anyways thats a really good movie.
I tried to do a print screen off the DVD but it wouldnt work right as soon as i shut the movie off it would dissapeer, so i just took a picture of it with my camera.

R.i.p. :cry:

That movie was just as awesome as that man was, his voice made your back shiver it was so deep.

I have that A&E biography special of him on tape, and not taped from T.V. I actually purchased the VHS (not available on DVD) from www.amazon.com. That's an '85 Big Red. When Andre died, the W.W.E. (W.W.F. at that time) published a magazine entitled "Spotlight" about him. Not sure if anyone remembers, but the WWF released several of these "Spotlight" magazines at the time. It was an entire magazine devoted to the career of one particular wrestler. When Andre died, they released one of these "Spotlights" on him. Lots of pictures, and a couple of them show him riding around his ranch on the Big Red. I still have that magazine. Unfortunately, I don't have a scanner. Anyway, enough of my rambling...

Naw Michael, It's real.

It was snapped from an old video tape. They did a biography thing on Andre just after he passed away. And during the video Andre's right hand man Frenchy said the one thing The Giant loved to do when he got home to his farm was to ride around his property on his ATC.

With Andre on that thing it almost looks like an ATC 70 ...

ya its not fake, i dont even know how to use photoshop. I can see why you think its fake though, it kind of looks like someone put him on it.
If you dont believe me, go buy the Princess Bride movie, its a good movie and in the special features it shows this picture.
