The Klitschkos' father died today

[ChopperRead]

Was their dad a giant too?

No, he wasn't big at all. The brothers towered over him.

Maybe it was the radiation that grew them so big. Wlad tells how he played with his paper boats as a child in puddles of water that turned out to be radioactive.

Rest in peace

A lot of boxers have fathers who discipline their kids in a harsh sort of way. It gets good results though. Serious question, how tall was he?

Always wanted to know more about Wlad and Vitali's dad. He sounds like he was an exceptional person...and he raised two exceptional sons.

RIP Vladimir Klitschko
