The biggest in physical size was the US Ivy Mike device, a cylinder 80 feet long and twenty feet in diameter weighing over 500 tons.

The biggest in yield was the USSR Tsar Bomba device, at a yield of 52 to 58 megatons depending on method of measurement. This bomb was designed with a maximum yield of 100 megatons, but was reduced for test purposes to minimize damage & contamination of the test site.
