The largest number that you can choose depends on your facilities. Consider the largest number available on your pocket calculator.

Which just shows that your pocket calculator can't handle the set of off numbers (be it Natural, Rational, or Real).
Mathematics isn't based on what WE can do, but on what the numbers themselves can do, and there existance isn't dependent on what we can "think of" but what comes out of there generative definition.
That this is beyond your comprehension isn't a limitation of mathematics, but of YOU.
