Accurate

I see people with guts like this all the time but like...how does the body grow like that? Is it just some people's bodies that just exclusively store fat in the belly and nowhere else? Is it a growth? Is it because this person is active but just eats too much?
It always confuses me when you see these guys with just a perfectly round belly and barely any fat anywhere else on them.
- Liver disease can do this too. Alcoholics will often get this kind of belly. Any other disorder that fills abdomen with fluid can do it too, though I think that'd generally be an emergency situation.
  
  so that's the "beer belly"?, interesting
- Testosterone does this. If you have really high T and gain weight, it mostly goes to the belly. It's especially obvious when a dude is on steroids but doesn't diet or exercise enough to get the body builder look.

I would say this is done for some surgeries (inflate the abdomen with carbon dioxide) but this man ain’t prepped for the OR with his sweatpants and t-shirt that fits surprisingly well…

His hat over his face getting blown up into the air every time he exhales.

I can’t believe you’re body-shaming an 11-months-pregnant man.

That's gonna be an uncomfortable echocardiogram

Given the medical bed, maybe some kind of pregnancy simulation thing to help learn what to do?
