Gigachad (also Giga Chad) is internet slang for a man drawn as even more exaggerated than a Chad: extreme jaw, extreme frame, cartoon abundance.[1] On PSL scale talk it sits above Chad as a joke ceiling, not a medical type. The meme face associated with the word is a heavily edited photograph of the Russian bodybuilder Ernest Khalimov, circulated as “The Chad” / Gigachad on imageboards.[2]
Looksmaxxing boards use the word as kayfabe. This wiki does not rank living people as gigachads on the Main Page. See PSL god for the model-pin-up version of the same impulse (Sean O'Pry, David Gandy).
Meme versus person
The heavily edited Khalimov still that travels as “Gigachad” is a copyrighted photograph. This wiki does not hotlink it. The word on PSL boards is a joke ceiling above Chad. Living men are not ranked Gigachad on the Main Page.
