Actor Richard Kiel passed away at age 74 on Wednesday. He made his acting debut in a 1960 'Laramie' episode called 'Street of Hate'.

Kiel will be most remembered as the biggest villain James Bond ever faced. But it was the 1974 movie 'The Longest Yard' starring Burt Reynolds, that Kiel would gain fame.

At 7 feet 2 inches, he made a great player for the prison inmate football team. They play against the prison guards.

Remember who played the sadistic warden? The man from Minneapolis that gained fame on a 1960's TV series.
