〔 Truman Hugh "Huge" Cassidy (born December 31, 1935)〔 is an American metal sculptor, jazz musician and former powerlifter, who competed in powerlifting just prior to the formation of the International Powerlifting Federation (IPF). In 1971 he became US National Powerlifting Champion as well as World Powerlifting Champion at the inaugural Amateur Athletic Union (AAU) World Championships, defeating the young soon-to-be all-time greats Jim Williams and John Kuc in the super heavyweight division. ==Powerlifting career== Cassidy's lifting career was quite short starting in 1965 and ending in 1971. Formerly, he wanted to become an Olympic weightlifter but had problems mastering the necessary technique. Being naturally lean and standing 5-foot-10-inches tall, he knew he had to put on a lot of weight to become a successful powerlifter, so he pushed his bodyweight quickly from 175 to approximately 290 pounds. At his maximum bodyweight he became a world class super heavyweight lifter in the early 1970s and got his nickname "Huge" for his bodyweight and appearance. Cassidy achieved his best performance at the inaugural AAU World Championships with his personal record total of 2160 lbs (800 lbs squat - 570 lbs bench press - 790 lbs deadlift). Within 6 months after his World Championship win he suffered a knee injury, which ended his lifting career.
