Matthew passed away on August 9th, 2005, May he rest in peace.

Matthew McGrory was born the youngest of four children (two sisters and one brother) to average height parents in 1973. He was fifteen pounds at birth and continued to grow at a rapid pace until reaching his full height of 7'6". His extraordinary height is a natural phenomenon. Since 1992, Matthew has been in the Guinness book of records for the world's largest feet, at size 29 1/2. His feet are 18 1/2 inches long with his big toe measuring five inches!

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 Widner University in Chester, PA. During this time he also worked as a bouncer in Philadelphia and occasionally worked in conjunction with foot experts like Dr. Scholls on promotional tours. Matthew has donated his time to various charities, discussing diversity with children in schools and hospitals. He has also appeared several times on the Howard Stern show under the name "Bigfoot."

In 1998, Matthew moved to L.A. to pursue a career in acting. Within a brief period of time, he started to earn a living by acting in movies and with guest appearances on sitcoms and talk shows. He has made some huge waves in his short time in Hollywood. Watch some of his movies and you'll see for yourself that Matthew is an extremely talented up-and-coming actor!*
