In 1983, Patricia Clarke gave birth to Kevin Robert Clark, a baby who made national headlines for his remarkable size — weighing over 16 pounds at birth. He wasn’t just the largest baby ever born at Community Memorial Hospital but was also believed to be the biggest newborn in all of New Jersey at the time.

Despite his extraordinary size, Kevin was perfectly healthy, and his birth quickly turned him into a media sensation. He made appearances on major TV programs, including Saturday Night Live and Good Morning America. As he grew, his height continued to draw attention. By the age of 12, Kevin was already 5 feet 7 inches tall, and by junior high, he had reached an incredible 6 feet 5 inches.

Known for his good-natured humor, Kevin often jokes about his height. “I like to say I’m 5-foot-21,” he quipped. “When people ask if I play basketball, I ask them if they play miniature golf.” Now 40 years old, Kevin stands at an impressive 6 feet 9 inches and has learned to embrace the constant curiosity about his stature.

“There isn’t a day that goes by when someone doesn’t ask how tall I am,” he said with a smile. A proud former soldier, Kevin now lives with his 6-foot-tall wife and their Great Dane. Despite the lifelong spotlight that began at birth, he continues to thrive, proving that his story is about much more than size — it’s about humor, resilience, and living life with confidence.
