Guest churchill gaffer Posted June 9, 2008 Report Share Posted June 9, 2008 I hope it was a mistake! The cameraman should have noticed it! I bet he was paid a lot! Hate to think Ivan was taking the Micky, That was Wembley! And a very big day out!!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hate to think Ivan was taking the Micky, That was Wembley! And a very big day out!!!!! Are you suggesting Ivan's massive maulers might not be entirely his own? If so the joke's on me because I'm assuming they're genuine. If you look at the full picture there are a couple of others on the front row with apparently outsized hands but Ivan's are truly outstanding, especially right next to Little Lee's.

Mrs Miggins Pie Shop Posted June 9, 2008 Report Share Posted June 9, 2008 The biggest hands I ever saw belonged to Barry McGuigan. For quite a small man they were simply ENORMOUS!

Nogbad the Bad Posted June 9, 2008 Author Report Share Posted June 9, 2008 The biggest hands I ever saw belonged to Barry McGuigan. For quite a small man they were simply ENORMOUS! Yes, huge, bulbous shiny red monsters, you could barely distinguish his fingers. Really more like grotesque giant tomatoes than a bunch of big bananas.

Dorset_Cider Posted June 9, 2008 Report Share Posted June 9, 2008 Just look at Ivan in the pre-Wembley photo shoot.

Snufflelufagus Posted June 10, 2008 Report Share Posted June 10, 2008 I think you'll find its a bit of an illusion as to me it looks like the cuffs of the white shirt have blended into his hands. His body position is alos further forward than the other two hence his hands closer to the camera an (and on his knees). Maybe try specsavers!!!!!

I follow your thinking but surely this is not an illusion, or any digit enlarging effect due to camera angle as pondered further up by Dorset, these are truly gargantuan mitts. It could be they are not genuine but Carey and Slocombe, for two, are also displaying hands that appear larger than the average but still not in Ivan's Huge Hand League.

CiderHider Posted June 10, 2008 Report Share Posted June 10, 2008 I heard how he got those hands, he was in a pub on the Northern Ireland/Ireland border and he was dancing on the table after serveral meads and buckets trying to impress the bargirl, mad as a balloon he was!! and because it was a special day and his dancing was so special and the 4 leaf clover he picked earlier to add to his lucky heather collection had grown in border cowshit, he inadvertently summoned the powerful Shaymus David O learyus the lucky Leprechaun. David O Learyus, the lucky Leprechaun was able to grant a wish to the impressed bargirl who immidiatly noticing the lack of applause for Ivan said 'Aah to be sure to be sure, oy would loike you to give him a big hand' Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
