Trivia: In 1992, Paul Alter filed a lawsuit against Disney claiming that this movie was ripped off from his screenplay, "Now, That's a Baby!" about an enormous toddler creating havoc after being exposed to an enlarging ray.

Factual error: The baby is expanded to approximately fifty times his height, width and girth but it's explicitly stated that he retains his orginal mass. This means he will have the same volume as one hundred and twenty five thousand babies of his original size, but will weigh the same as before he was enlarged! That child is going to weigh much less than the volume of air he displaces. He's going to float away.
