He was the largest infant born at Community Memorial Hospital and possibly all of New Jersey at the time. Despite his unusual size, Kevin was healthy and became an instant celebrity, appearing on \u201cSaturday Night Live\u201d and \u201cGood Morning America.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Kevin\u2019s height continued to make headlines as he grew to 5\u20197\u2033 by age 12 and 6\u20195\u2033 by junior high. He joked about his height, saying, \u201cI like to joke that I\u2019m 5-foot-21. When people ask if I play basketball, I ask them if they play miniature golf.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Today, at 40, Kevin stands at 6\u20199\u2033 and has grown accustomed to the attention. \u201cThere isn\u2019t a day that goes by when someone doesn\u2019t ask me how tall I am,\u201d he said. Kevin, a former soldier, now lives with his 6-foot-tall wife and Great Dane. He has learned to navigate the world with his extraordinary stride.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Despite the challenges of being in the spotlight since birth, Kevin appears to be thriving.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We wish him all the best as he continues to make his mark on the world.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In 1983, Patricia Clarke gave birth to Kevin Robert Clark, a massive baby weighing over 16 pounds.
