I was having a cigarette on set, and see a rather large black man jogging down the street. He had a vest on with tons of weights strapped in it, at least 75 lbs. worth. Turns out it was Michael Clark Duncan. He sees me, realizes I'm with a film crew, and shouts "HEY! Is Eva Longoria working today?" I said, "Nope, not today." Hey says, "ALRIGHT. Tell her MICHAEL CLARK DUNCAN SAID HELLO." Then he took right back off jogging. Totally random. Dude is absolutely gigantic BTW.

I always figured that Michael Clarke Duncan size was comparable to a military battle tank. I will admit, from your story, he appears to be quite a nice guy. I was a bit shocked when he died. That guy looked like nothing can take him down from how huge and strong he is. That dude was like a human tank. I'm probably five feet and seven in a half inches and I could be considered a hobbit in size compared to how big he is. But when he died, I was surprised, I really liked that guy. Well, he's up there with God now and he's up there with Mr. Rogers.

I had a friend that's passed away now,but she and I were talking about him right after he died. She said she used to work at a Rite Aid in his hometown,and Mr.Duncan's aunt used to come in and get photos developed all the time.She said she never met Mr.Duncan,but said that his aunt was an incredibly sweet lady.
