That’s all I could think. He had a biography written in 1987, complete with a cover photo you’d expect. But I can’t believe there’s not a movie about this - some strange multiverse of Unbroken or Boys in the Boat

Who could play him?

Hafþór Júlíus Björnsson (The Mountain) is around his height at 6'9".

I don’t think they could get Braun Strowman’s hair or acting skills right for that kind of role. Hair-wise Matsuzak sorta looked like a giant bearded John Belushi.

Hafþór is also an abysmal actor, so probably best to leave him out of it.

What is the 4th character in his name called and how is it pronounced?

What movie?

That's what they should call it!

Call what?

Sigh. They're talking about a hypothetical movie they think should be made.

TIL John Matuszak, best known for playing Sloth in The Goonies, was a state champion in the shot put, was the #1 overall draft pick in the NFL, was served a restraining order during a game, had a head coach perform life-saving CPR, won 2 Super Bowls, and acted with Ringo Starr before ODing at 38
