Family members with the biggest size disparities

[Montreal Shadow]

Brothers tend to be of similar sizes, as do fathers and sons. It's not always the case though and we do have some examples of noticeable size differences. I'm mostly looking for people within the same generation or at most one generation apart. That a grandson is much larger than his grandfather or the opposite happens (especially when players were smaller 50+ years ago).

Tom Pyatt: 5'11", 185 lbs
Taylor Pyat: 6'4", 230 lbs

Saku Koivu: 5'10", 181 lbs
Mikko Koivu: 6'2", 213 lbs

Jordan Subban: 5'9", 181 lbs
Malcom Subban: 6'2, 200 lbs

Greg Malone: 6', 189 lbs
Ryan Malone: 6'4" 224 lbs

Nick Robertson: 5’9 178 lbs
Jason Robertson: 6’3" 202 lbs

These are the ones I could come up with. I'm sure there are others but I think it'd be hard to top out the size disparity between Taylor and his little brother. 5 inches and 45 pounds is pretty insane for a pair of siblings.

Just checked and 5’9" 178 lbs for Nick vs 6’3" 202 lbs for Jason. Yeah, it’s up there. Biggest height difference so far.

This one is going to be hard to beat I think.

Family size can be all over the place. For example, my stepmother has told me I’m much bigger than my father

 

[NVious]

I looked up Filip and his father and they are basically the exact same size, pretty neat.

Damn, biggest difference overall.

PS- I knew some twins where one bro literally got all the physical nutrients. Neither was tall, but one was this brick shithouse on the hockey team and the other way a skinny music dude. Just kinda interesting how genes be- absolute polar opposites, build wise.
