World's Heaviest Man

I'm certain that everyone has been following the trials and tribulations of Manuel Uribe, the world's heaviest man. Recently, he was in the news for having an old Chevy van refitted to provide him with the mobility that he hasn't had in years.

Within the past year, he has found a wife and lost more than 500 pounds on the Zone diet. His next goal is to hit the beach in May. I can't believe that he doesn't have his own reality show yet. Discovery Channel already televised his wedding last May. Where's the followup? We already a bunch of similar themed shows, e.g., the Half Ton family and Brookhaven Clinic. There's definitely room for the Spanish language equivalent.
