“Awesome to experience all these different cultures and see new places,” the actor added.
He shared a video showing people excited to take photos and videos with him.
According to the Guinness World Records, “The Dutch Giant smashed the record for tallest professional bodybuilder.”
“It’s not difficult to imagine how Olivier earned the nickname “Dutch Giant”: strolling down the streets, the bodybuilder towers over the crowd, turning heads thanks to his statuary presence and natural charisma,” the Guinness World Records said.

The Dutch bodybuilder is not the first celebrity to express satisfaction with his visit to Fez.
American actress Susan Sarandon expressed her love for Morocco’s spiritual capital during a recent visit to Fez in an interview with the National News.
Describing Morocco as “amazing,” the actress said she visited Marrakech several times, but admitted that she liked Fez even more.
“It’s a little bit more user-friendly, it’s smaller, but it has the same kind of interesting personality and is just not quite as huge and busy and touristy,” she said of the city.
