The current record stands at 21 bricks, weighing 777 pounds. George will be attempting to double the amount of bricks to 42, making the weight over 1,500 pounds, while balanced on a bed of 12-inch steel spikes spaced two inches apart.

George “The Giant” McArthur standing at seven feet three inches, was born and raised in Bakersfield CA. George has performed throughout the United States and Canada, as well as in movies such as “Big Fish,” “Tough Luck,” and “Firecracker.” He has also performed on television programs like “Ripley’s Believe It Or Not,” “Touched By An Angel,” and “According To Jim,” to name a few. George started performing feats of daring with fire eating at the age of twenty-one. This was to over come a fear of fire. George developed his fear of fire after his eldest brother was severely burned during a break-in at his home and survived.
George was motivated by his brothers desire to not let this tragic incident ruin his life. George wants to show people that with desire and determination anything is possible. So come watch George push his body to its limits, July 15, 2005 at Rabobank Arena.
