	This is a really good quiz. It takes an existing Sporcle Quiz (US Presidents) and introduces a level or originality/abstract crazyness. And yet Sporcle still decide to publish quizzes such as 'Press 1 400 times in a minute'

	thank you very much. i am a huge advocate of publishing the "unknown" guy and taking the risk, since there's a lot in it for both sporcle and the quiz creator, but nothing to lose. i have never been published, despite many attempts, so if you feel this quiz is worthy, please hit that nominate button. thank you.

	What surprises me is that if someone knows exactly one thing about presidential weights, I would think it would be "Taft was really, really fat," and yet that is not the most commonly guessed answer.

	Do we actually have accurate records to base this on going all the way back to Washington? Aside from "Taft was fat," "Lincoln was tall," and "Madison was short," I don't know a ton about past presidential physiques.

	@deorco: "all the way back to Washington" was only a few hundred years. Records have been kept abundantly since dates well before these times. Although, I'll have to admit that some were a bit hard to find the height and weight for, but those are the only ingredients needed for calculating BMI.

	Morbidly obese, I knew that was coming.
