Within the coupled Fokas-Lenells equations framework, we show explicitly that, in contrast to the expected threefold-amplitude magnification, Peregrine solitons can reach a peak amplitude as high as 5 times the background level. Besides, the interaction of two such anomalous Peregrine solitons can generate a spikelike rogue wave of extremely high peak amplitude, depending on the parameters used. We numerically confirm that the Peregrine soliton beyond the threefold limit can be reproduced from either a deterministic initial profile or a chaotic background field, hence anticipating the feasibility of its experimental observation.
