The Infamous—Merely a coincidence.

Largest Shoe Size: 29

Matthew McGrory was born in 1973. He was fifteen pounds at birth and continued to grow at a rapid pace until reaching his full height of 7'6". Since 1992, Matthew has been in the Guinness book of records for the world’s largest feet, at size 29 1/2. Having the largest feet was an expensive title, with a pair of shoes costing the gentle giant—who measured 7' 6" tall and 617 lbs—up to $22,745.

Matthew attended catholic grade school and then went on to graduate from Bishop Shannahan High School and West Chester University. He then briefly studied Law at Widener University in Chester, PA.

He has appeared in large production movies such as: The Devil’s Rejects, Big Fish, Men in Black II, House of a 1000 Corpses and Bubble Boy.

Mathew died on August 9, 2005 from natural causes at the age of 32.
