This man is really more of an extreme casualty of larger epidemic, and epidemics don't just happen because of the eating habits of one super morbidly obese man. Maybe you should ponder some of the bigger questions and causes regarding how obesity has become so prevalent, like for example, a lot of the people that I see in the BBC, TLC, and other obesity documentaries aren't rich. So, how are they able to buy enough calories to maintain their mass? How have technology and urban planning affected the activity habits of the population? This man's obesity did not happen overnight, and it couldn't have happened unless x,y,z, environmental factors enabled it. Self control is the least of it.
