Andrew Harrison (August 30, 1979) is an English professional wrestler of African descent. Contrary to his wrestling ring name Tiny Iron, Harrison is far from being tiny, as he stands well over 6 feet tall and weighs between 270 and 300 lbs. Harrison is known also for his work as a security guard for many top named celebrities and entertainers.
Early life[]
Living in London, England, Harrison was the youngest of the many children in his family. Both his parents worked hard to provide for the family. As a teenager, Harrison visualized himself as being in a superhero-like role as he would stare at his bedroom walls where he had hung pictures of He-Man, Superman, Incredible Hulk and Mr. T. Saving up pocket money, Harrison embarked on his quest to build a superhero-caliber body while many his age were typically furthering their educations. He soon found work as a security guard, graduating from handling doors to providing personal security for several top named celebrities including Jay-Z, 50 Cent and Rihanna. While filming the 2005 movie The Number One Girl in London, actor Vinnie Jones met Harrison and offered him a part in the film.
