In 1983, Patricia Clarke’s pregnancy was unlike any other. She had a feeling her unborn child would be big, but nothing could prepare her for the arrival of Kevin Robert Clark, a baby boy who weighed a whopping 16 pounds and made headlines as the largest infant born at Community Memorial Hospital and possibly all of New Jersey.
As Kevin grew, so did his fame. He appeared on “Saturday Night Live” and “Good Morning America,” charming audiences with his towering presence.
By age 12, he stood at 5 feet 7 inches, and by junior high, he had reached 6 feet 5 inches. His height continued to soar, making him a local celebrity.
Kevin’s height became a part of his identity, with strangers often asking about his stature. He learned to joke about it, saying he was “5-foot-21” and asking if they played miniature golf.
Today, at 40 years old, Kevin stands at an impressive 6 feet 9 inches, living with his 6-foot-tall wife and Great Dane.
While being in the spotlight from birth could be daunting, Kevin has embraced his uniqueness and lives life with a giant stride.
His story inspires us to celebrate our differences and embrace what makes us special. Share Kevin’s amazing journey with family and friends!
