Ricky Naputi


Ricky Junior Naputi was a Guamanian man who died from obesity-related conditions in his apartment in Mangilao, Guam, at 39 years old. His weight had ballooned since he was a teenager, which was when he developed an addiction to food, though he was an average-sized child. He weighed 400 kg at his peak weight. He was the focus of the Channel 5 documentary The Man Who Ate Himself to Death and TLC followed him for their documentary 900 Pound Man: The Race Against Time.
