Authentic Gachimuchi Information[edit | edit source]
- One night, when director Lenard Fritz Krawinkel was leaving a cinema in Hanover with his wife, she said: "Look at him over there, that's Sumo Bruno for you". The gigantic Hakan Orbeyi was sitting on a bar stool, wearing a muscle shirt when the outdoor temperature was five degrees Celsius. He immediately went over to him and introduced himself. While they were talking, a girl came up, kissed Orbeyi and said: "See you later". A few minutes later, another girl came along. She was given a tender hug, and Krawinkel thought: "Here, at last, is an overweight person who's really at ease with himself".
