A child weighing 7.2 kg was born in 1983. How is he still alive after 39 years?

The 1983 birth of the kid Kevin Robert Clark generated a lot of media attention throughout the nation. After all, the infant was 7.2 kg in weight! He was the largest infant in the country.

They had previous children who were equally gigantic, so Patricia Clark, Kevin’s mother, expected that the child would probably be enormous, but she did not expect such a shock.

When the child was taken home from the hospital, it was discovered that all of his clothes were too tiny for him and that he couldn’t fit in a conventional bed.

When Kevin was 12 years old, he was taller than 152 cm. “Given my rapid height increase, finding proper apparel and footwear was the most difficult. It was difficult since I needed clothing all the time, he recalls.

Because of his height, everyone coerced him into trying sports; they forced him to play basketball. Kevin, however, struggled with sports since he had little passion for the activity. He loved hunting and fishing, though.

After that, Kevin enlisted in the US Air Force, and he is currently a state police officer. He is presently 39 years old, 136 kg in weight, and over 2 meters tall. The man reveals that he doesn’t enjoy being in the spotlight since, literally when he was a baby, he was the subject of several jokes that were circulated in the media. Over time, the man becomes more and more upset by all the jokes and stories that are told about him. Therefore, we do not suggest…

However, Kevin’s life has generally progressed; he discovered his true love, got a puppy, and the guy is happy. When someone asks if I play basketball, I answer, “Do you play mini golf.” John claims.

Typhoon Kong-rey Has One of Largest Eyes Ever Seen: ‘Absolutely Massive’

Ameteorologist has pointed out the sheer size of Typhoon Kong-rey’s eye as the massive storm approached Taiwan on Wednesday.

As of Wednesday afternoon, Typhoon Kong-rey had maximum sustained winds of 130 mph, according to the website Zoom Earth. The storm has weakened slightly since Tuesday night, when it was categorized as a super typhoon with maximum sustained winds of 150 mph, equivalent to a Category 4 hurricane. Forecasts anticipate that Typhoon Kong-rey will weaken further by the time it makes landfall in Kaohsiung in the early morning hours on Thursday.

On Tuesday night, meteorologist Noah Bergren of TV station WOFL in Orlando, Florida, commented on the size of the storm’s eye.

“Super Typhoon Kong-rey is easily one of the largest eye’s in a major tropical system you will ever see on Earth,” Bergren posted on X (formerly Twitter). “Thing is absolutely massive.”

AccuWeather senior meteorologist Alan Reppert told Newsweek that having a large eye doesn’t necessarily imply anything about the storm’s strength.

“It just means the winds with it are farther away from the center than if it was a smaller eye,” he said. “It doesn’t necessarily have any major defining characteristic of the storm.”

Reppert added that a stronger storm that’s been around longer usually has a wider eye than a newer storm.

Most spaghetti models—or computer models illustrating potential storm paths—show Kong-rey making landfall on Taiwan’s southeast coast and cutting across the island before emerging with maximum sustained winds of around 75 mph. Models indicate that the typhoon will exhibit a northeastern turn away from China, which will take it out to the East China Sea.

Kong-rey’s strength is uncharacteristic for this time of year, The New York Times reported, adding that the typhoon is expected to make landfall equivalent to a Category 4 hurricane.

Reppert warned that strong winds up to 140 mph with higher gusts could hit southern Taiwan, though the storm is expected to weaken as it moves over the island. An AccuWeather report warned of “significant structural damage, mudslides and landslides” from the storm, as up to 3 feet of rain is expected to lash Taiwan. The storm could either maintain its intensity or strengthen before it makes landfall early Thursday.

Eastern China and Japan also are expecting heavy rain as the storm progresses.

A typhoon is classified as a severe tropical cyclone occurring in the Northwest Pacific. A hurricane is the term for the same type of storm in the Northeast Pacific and Northern Atlantic. Outside of these regions, the storms are called tropical cyclones.
