All the athletes that weigh the same as Donald Trump
Donald Trump has surrendered to the authorities on 13 charges of attempting to overturn the 2020 presidential election in Georgia. His mugshot has got people talking after being released online – and so has his weight. The former president has listed his height and weight after being booked and released from the Fulton County Jail in Atlanta, and no-one is buying it for a second. While his height is listed at a believable 6 foot 3, his weight is listed at a trim 215 pounds. It’s a big drop from the last time the ex-president’s weight was divulged during his first criminal indictment in April. At the time, Trump reportedly told New York officers he weighed 240 pounds. It’s safe to say people are a little skeptical, and when compared to some of the biggest sporting stars in the US, it’s no surprise. These are the athletes who have almost exactly the same weight and height as Trump is claiming to be. CJ Stroud Houston Texans quarterback Stroud is one of the young stars to look out for in the NFL, having been the number two pick in the draft. He was officially recorded at the same height as Trump and weighing 218 pounds, just three pounds heavier. Kenny Pickett Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Pickett is officially listed as 6-foot-3 and 220 pounds. Lamar Jackson Baltimore Ravens star Jackson measures 6 foot 2 and 215 pounds. Evander Craft “This is 6'3" and 215lbs (left), not this (blech/right)”, said a social media user, posting a picture of University of Toledo linebacker Evander Craft. Derek Carr Others also pointed out that New Orleans Saints quarterback Derek Carr had the same measurements, with one writing: “Wow Trump is 6’3 and 215lbs so is Derek Carr they could be twins.” Others pointed to New Orleans Saints quarterback Derek Carr and Minnesota Vikings signal caller Kirk Cousins being in the same range. “Lol. So Trump around the height and weight of the average NFL quarterback,” a user wrote as another added: “Got Trump out here suggesting his height & weight, and finding out he’s built like an NFL QB.” Chris Hemsworth He’s not a sportsman, of course, but Hemsworth previously revealed that he weighed 215lbs during the filming of Thor. The actor spoke about his weight while discussing Formula 1 film Rush, saying he had to trim down for the movie. "The first thing Ron Howard said to me when I got the Rush job was, 'I don’t know if Thor is going to fit into a race car'. I was filming The Avengers when I got the call for Rush, so I went from 215lbs, which is how much I weigh when I'm playing Thor, down to about 185lbs," he said.

Ex-girlfriend of Miami Dolphins' Eli Apple offers to pay fines for anyone who injures him
The former girlfriend of an NFL football player has offered to pay the fines of anyone who injures him. Getting on the wrong side of an ex-partner is never fun, but when that ex is offering to cover your rivals’ fines for intentionally injuring you in your sport, you know you’re on dangerous ground. Instagram model Destani, on Instagram as @nee.ariiii, is the former girlfriend of Miami Dolphins cornerback Eli Apple and has offered up the money to any other players who injure him on the field and face fines. She made the comment on her Instagram story, urging other players to go after her “baby dad”, targeting the knees and hamstrings. She wrote: “If you play against my baby dad this season, please go for the knees, maybe a hammy. No.33 for the Dolphins. I'll gladly Zelle you back any fines.” According to Boardroom, players can face a $15,914 fine for an illegal blindside block, while a penalty for unsportsmanlike conduct can cost them $13,261. It’s not the first time Apple has been involved in controversy in his footballing career. The player is fairly notorious among NFL fans for gameday antics and feuding with other players on social media. One of Apple’s ongoing social media feuds was with Tyreke Hill, who is now his teammate at Miami Dolphins. When the team signed Apple, Hill said: “Now, my looking from it is now I get to embarrass him every day.” Sign up for our free Indy100 weekly newsletter Have your say in our news democracy.
