According to a handy-dandy little conversion applet,

 that's taken up residence on my desktop, 

1" of Hg is approximately = to 0.4911541 "PSI"

I guess that makes Eric's strapping 62 inches
(longer than even Paul Kraususky's INSEAM, good thing he's gone S8 with more
legroom  :-) 
something not seen since the likes of Hap's Green Sparkling Terminator went
down for its latest rework ~
a whopping 30.45 pounds!!!!
