This is a very shocking, very humbling image. The effect of excess weight is quite startling. You can hear about it all day long, but to actually see it can bring it home full force. Look at the joints, how much pressure is applied on them. Look at the way the legs bow. Most alarming, look at the lining around the heart and the spots on the base of the brain.
If a picture is worth a thousand words, then this one is priceless.
