When you think of an NHL hockey player, you probably don't immediately picture a 7 foot tall monster on skates, but this week that's exactly who episode five is all about.
Standing at 6 feet, 9 inches tall and weighing 263 lbs at his peak, Zdeno Chara is the most dominant defenseman to ever lace 'em up. From humble beginnings in then communist Czechoslovakia (where breaking your hockey stick meant you may have to play the rest of the season with your feet), to hoisting Lord Stanley's Cup in the most memorable celebration footage in NHL history. Chara is an absolute freak show athlete in every sense of the term.
Join J and D on the incredible journey through Chara's history, find out why the man behind the legend is much different than what you may think, and answer the age old question: "where does Chara buy his pants?"
Draw yourself a bubble bath, or slip into something more comfortable, and enjoy the 108mph ride!
