Jonah Adam (Cardeli) Falcon (born July 29, 1970) is an American actor and television presenter. He came to national attention in 1999 over the size of his penis, reported to be the largest on record at 13.5 inches (34 cm) long when erect. However, Falcon has not authorized or permitted independent verification of this figure.
Jonah Adam Julio Cardeli Falcon was born at Greenpoint Hospital in Brooklyn to Cecilia Cardeli, an accountant's clerk, and Joe Falcon, a sailor who died two years after Falcon's birth. Falcon has at times claimed that his biological father was porn star John Holmes, who was famous for the size of his penis. Falcon has claimed to have documentation proving this lineage, but family members have dismissed this claim and he has failed to produce any evidence.
He recounts that when he was in fifth grade, his schoolmates saw his penis, which was eight inches long at that point, while he changed in a bathroom stall. Falcon states that he was able to perform autofellatio at the age of 10, and that at that age an older neighbor told an eighteen-year-old woman about him, and arranged for his first sexual experience with another person. At age twelve, Falcon enrolled at an East Harlem school. He reports that by the seventh grade, his penis had grown to 9.5 inches erect, and by age 15, it was 10.5 inches. He later enrolled at the Bronx High School of Science, and graduated in 1988.
