Depends which way you look at it, I think the guy on the photo is just really, really small.

Heres the info from the article
Meet Herman: a 22lb, 3ft rabbit that is more than half the size of its owner.
http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v6...4909990001.jpg
The giant bunny amazed onlookers at a Berlin food and agriculture fair - they first thought it was a giant cuddly toy.

Herman is one of a breed called the German Giant. Most grow to a maximum of 18lb, but Herman just kept growing.

Owner Hans Wagner, who raised him on a diet of vegetables, vitamin supplements and hay, keeps Herman in a specially built, solid oak hutch.

A spokesman for the German Rabbit Breeders' Association told The Daily Mail: "They are good natured, reliable and calm. They are, however, because of their size, not very suitable for children."

Have a closer look round the wrist.

The largest rabbit on record was heavier, I do concede, it just looks fake to me, that's all.

OK - it's been covered by other press articles, with claimed weights varying from 17lb to 22lb. No other pictures though

He's trying to remember what his name is - not too wise

I'd love one of these bunnies. Imagine taking him for a walk & the reactions of other folks
