On a 2001 episode of Queer as Folk , Emmett (Peter Paige) decides that he wants to become "ex-gay." To dissuade him from this crazy idea, his friends arrange for him to be visited by adult video performer Zack O'Tool, played by the super-sized-in-every-way Matthew G. Taylor (left).
Although this is definitely a prosthetic.
Born in Burlington, Ontario, in 1973, Matt worked as a police officedr and martial artist before the acting bug hit.
Among his other early roles:
Legendary strongman Eugene Sandow in a 1998 biopic of Thomas Edison,
A bushy-haired thug in Detroit Rock City (1999)
Medoc in The Skulls (2001), about an Ivy League secret society.
