  • Summary

  • Welcome to Fabulous Destinies In this episode, we'll be talking about an iconic figure in the world of wrestling. An extraordinary personality, legend has it that he is the inspiration behind the character Shrek. His nickname: French Angel. His name: Maurice Tillet. From his childhood to his impact on the wrestling universe, discover his fabulous destiny. The man who inspired the Shrek character Despite seemingly having everything to succeed, at the age of 17, Maurice's life takes a dramatic turn. His body gradually becomes deformed—his hands elongate, his feet reach an abnormal size, and his head swells worryingly. Maurice is afflicted with acromegaly, a condition leading to the excessive growth of bone tissue. Due to his appearance, people mock him. He makes a wish: that no one should endure his ordeal and that those who mock differences should be punished. Production : Bababam Voice : Fabrice Muracciole Translation of the French script of Clémence Setti. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
