16-Pound Giant Baby Made Headlines In 1983, But Wait Till You See Him Today

When Patricia Clarke, 24, became pregnant in 1983, she had a strong suspicion that her unborn kid would be large.

She was aware of the large families in her family because she had previously given birth to one. However, the sheer size of the baby she was carrying was entirely unexpected.Patricia gave birth to Kevin Robert Clark, who weighed more than 16 pounds—an huge baby. He was the largest infant ever delivered at Community Memorial Hospital, and maybe in all of New Jersey at the time.

Kevin’s parents were relieved to find that he was perfectly healthy, even though he couldn’t fit into a standard-sized cot and his baby clothing were too small.As one could anticipate, his size was immediately noticeable. His national profile rose after appearing on “Saturday Night Live” and “Good Morning America,” among other shows.

Begin by setting a good example.

Unfortunately, Kevin wasn’t finished taking center stage just yet. He was 5 feet and 7 inches tall when he was 12 years old, according to the New York Post.Upon entering junior high, he had grown to a height of 6 feet and 5 inches. He continued to develop more after that.“There isn’t a day that goes by when someone doesn’t ask me how tall I am,” Kevin told the Post.“I like to joke that I’m 5-foot-21. When people ask if I play basketball, I ask them if they play miniature golf.”

Today, Tom’s age is 40. His 6-foot-tall wife and Great Dane make their home with him; he is a former soldier.Being taller than other people is just something he has gotten used to. Actually, he does it with his enormous stride. Tom recently measured 6 feet 9 inches in height.Watch the video down below to learn more about his amazing story:
