But for others, you have to provide sources from where you get this. So that others can cross verify that. I am fairly certain that T24 weight from wikipedia is false. Yet, some people continue to use false weights. Few other weights are based on guesswork. Onus is upon you for the sake of truthfulness and clarity.

I never knew T24 had a page dedicated to him on wikipedia so i went and looked. how is it false? Ustaad weighed 240kg as a 3.5 year old male in 2009. are you telling me, the same male can’t reach 18 kilograms during his prime age. 

The 258kg weight was reported by a photographer. Someone added that to wikipedia. That is no credible source to confirm the weight as legit. Even 240kg weight was not adjusted for stomach food. T24 had constipation problem, treated many times for that. At the time of shifting, local newspaper reported his weight as 215kg. Check the first page of this thread.

its written more than 215 in this local (not exactly 215) in small grade newspaper , while written 250 in india's leading newspaper  https://indianexpress.com/article/india/...d-aka-t24/ Reply
