So lesson number one: Shaquille O’Neal is one enormous man. The evidence of Shaq’s largacity or biggestness or whatever the Big Aristotle himself might call it is right there in this photo. That is Shaq walking with former professional offensive lineman turned Personal Bodyguard Adam Plant. Want some digits? Adam Plant stands 6’7″ and weighs 350 pounds.
“Thanks @mradamplant for always looking out. Whenever y’all in Vegas or LA this who y’all need to holler at,” Shaq says, thanking Plant for looking after him.
This is a good time to present lesson #2, which is the bigger you are the bigger a target you can be — which is why Shaq needs a bodyguard in the first place. As usual, Shaq is ready to help a friend and professional out with a little promotion.
When Adam Plant isn’t looking after Shaq, he’s looking after some other dudes who can certainly take care of themselves if it comes down to it. (Plant is there to make sure it just never does come down to it.) Plant is also boxing champ Floyd Mayweather‘s bodyguard of choice.
Plant’s got some good Shaq-style humor too. Check him out at the Beauty Supply store:
