He looked like a towering giant, and when i saw the size of his legs, the size of telephone poles, i said to myself how could you ever tackle this guy coming at you full speed when you couldn't even wrap him up.

Just the pure size and power of this man was awe inspiring.
Prolly small by today's standards, but a moment frozen in time i could never forget.
that is excellent
