The act was five minutes long.
Senor Arrudi is a “Spanish giant” dressed in Spanish peasant costume. He is announced as eight foot three inches tall. He enters the stage to the tune of “Oh You Beautiful Doll”. He stands and stares out into the audience while the announcer talks.
A real "bunk" act. This "giant" looks to be more like seven feet seven inches tall rather than the eight feet which were announced. He is also "apparently devoid of all human intelligence."
