At present, an image of a wimpy well-bred boy who was small in statute had gone around, but it has been passed on that, in fact, he was an extraordinary hulk who was 197cm high and weighed approximately 161kg (Image-wise, this is a body frame similar to the present sumo wrestler, Takanonami.)
現在、一部で小柄で文弱なお坊ちゃまの少年というイメージが出回っているが、実際は身長6尺5寸（約197cm）、体重43貫（約161kg）の並外れた巨漢であったと伝わる（イメージ的には、現代の大相撲力士・貴ノ浪とほぼ同格の体格である）。
