13. Andre the Giant
The late professional wrestler and actor is best remembered for his role of Fezzik, the giant in 1987’s The Princess Bride. The WWF Hall of Famer most famously feuded with Hulk Hogan during the late 80’s, culminating at WrestleMania III when Hogan body slammed the 520 lb giant. In 1989, Andre was arrested by the Linn County, Iowa, sheriff and charged with assault after he allegedly violently attacked a local television cameraman. The “8th Wonder of the World” as he was often referred to, passed away in 1993 from congestive heart failure.
