The Bathurst Giant at one time could boast a man with a magnificent physique. He stood at six feet six inches (198 cm) high and weighed in at seventeen stone (108 kg), in fact one could almost say that with his golden flowing hair and trimmed beard he could have been mistaken as a reincarnation of one of the ‘gods’ of the Vikings.

George Bonnor, a popular and proud Bathurstian, operated a business as a produce merchant. He was assisted by his wife Sarah Ann, née Holmes. Our giant wasn’t George Bonner but his son, George John Bonnor who had been born in Bathurst in February, 1855.
