Exactly. Even if all he ever did was make kids (like exactly one every 9 months), he would have to have started at age 13 to make 17 kids by age 26. LOL [Reply]

Unless she had twins and triplets on multiple occasions. However many women were involved, that about 14 more kids than he probably should have manufactured... [Reply]

Yeeeeaaaahhh...ok. Just watched. The "grandfather" is younger than I am by a mile, and the victim was 26 years old. So...17 kids. They were so proud of the "legacy" he left behind...what the hell...:-) [Reply]
