In the 1980s, Kamala the Ugandan Giant was one of the most feared wrestlers in what was then known as the WWF. Today, he's a double amputee struggling to make ends meet.

The video below, produced by Bleacher Report, shows James Harris (a.k.a. Kamala) as he copes with the loss of both legs to diabetes.

The 6-foot-7 Mississippi native also recalls his decision to go into wrestling, done almost on a whim after he couldn't find a job.
