Petra Charlotte Verkaik (born November 4, 1966, Los Angeles, California) is an adult model known for her many appearances in Playboy publications. According to her website, Verkaik is "the most published woman in Playboy history" with appearances in over 70 Playboy magazines and Special Editions in the U.S. [1]

The prodigiously endowed Verkaik was Playmate of the Month for December 1989 after first appearing in the Great Playmate Hunt Special Edition in February 1989. As she describes it, "Playboy just bounced off my chest and fell into my lap." She owes her exotic looks and pendulous breasts to her Dutch father and Indonesian mother.

During the 1990s she made several movie and TV appearances, mostly in cameo or supporting roles emphasizing her dramatic contours, including Married ... with Children, Love Potion No. 9, and The Last Road.

[edit] The legend of Petra

  • In July 2002, Verkaik made headlines when she attended a high school prom in Tustin, California with the son of a friend. The high school senior, who Petra originally met from reading his "sensitive" college entrance essay, claimed that he had never seen any of the widely-available pornographic pictures of Verkaik on the Internet prior to their date.[2] The school principal allowed Verkaik to attend but forbade her to wear anything strapless, sheer or with excessive cleavage.[3]
  • In the commentary accompanying her centerfold appearance, Verkaik credits her massive breasts with saving her life, cushioning the impact when an automobile on a jack came off while she was working beneath it.
  • One of Verkaik's best known pictorials depicts her transforming from a cartoon Lara Croft (star of Tomb Raider: Legend) to a nude photographic version.
