'Cuz ol' Mr. Gravity has more surface area to grab ahold of!
It's kinda like if Big John Foster and I were standing side-by-side on the sidewalk......... And a wind came along and toppled us over forward....... And, instead of putting our arms out to break our falls, we just let ourselves go and our noses hit the pavement......... John would bust his nose....... And I'd bust mine, too........ However, whereas my 5'6", 140# frame would just leave my blood on the sidewalk to mark the spot........ John's 6'5", 400# would crack the sidewalk into pieces leaving it begging for mercy.
Don't believe me? You just come to the banquet at the 2002 Rallye...... You watch what John does to the mat in the ring as The Trepman and I give John a thrashing!

me!
