Giant Magnum (Michael Jarvi) was born in Japan at Yokota Airbase located
on the island of Honshu on the Kanto Plain, 28 miles northwest of Tokyo
at the foothills of the Okutama Mountains.

Giant Magnum is an American citizen because even though he was born in
Japan, the base is considered American territory. His mother, Elizabeth
speaks some Japanese and taught English as a second language in Japan.
When he was six months old, Giant Magnum returned to America.

Magnum attended Kindergarten and part of the first grade when his mother
decided to home school him. She took him all the way through high
school.

Giant Magnum has not participated in organized team athletics other than
a short stint in football where he was asked to leave because he was too
big and too rough for the other children.

Magnum's interest has been in weight and cardio training. He does not
drink, smoke or do drugs. As his coach I have been extremely impressed
with his athletic ability and desire to learn. This seven foot giant has
already mastered many wrestling moves and will perform a style unlike
any other "big man."

According to his mother Michael has always been much bigger than other
kids his age. For myself, I have not seen a man this big with Magnum's
coordination. He is very strong, a fast learner and only 19 years old.
