We report the discovery of the largest giant radio galaxy, J1420-0545: a FR type II radio source with an angular size of 17.4' identified with an optical galaxy at z=0.3067. Thus, the projected linear size of the radio structure is 4.69 Mpc (if we assume that H_{0}=71 km\s\Mpc, Omega_{m}=0.27, and Omega_{\Lambda}=0.73). This makes it larger than 3C...
