Forbidden Archeology: Human Giants Then And Now
Vanity

Posted on 09/28/2008 1:27:28 PM PDT by Justice Department

Almost every form of life that has existed on earth appears to have gone through a ‘giant’ phase. There have been giant plants, giant insects, giant reptiles, giant birds, giant fish, giant mammals and giant humans.

A surprising number of giant human skeletons have in fact been discovered, some of them reaching heights of 4.6 m (15 ft) or more. In many cases, the present whereabouts of the remains is unknown, and many details about the skeletons and the circumstances of their discovery are lacking, including indications as to their possible age. But to dismiss every such find out of hand as a delusion or hoax would seem to owe more to rank prejudice than to healthy scepticism.” [emphasis added]

I've yet to see one of these "giants," and I've studied a thousand or more archaeological skeletons in my career as an archaeologist in the western US.

I have yet to see any reports from my colleagues of such a find either.

Where's all the evidence?

You're just not looking in the right places.

Right under your feet, perhaps.

Don’t forget the jolly green giant. He made my steamed veggies. I have pictures of him, but the CIA won’t let me release them. So I coded the pictures into the text in issues of time magazine between April and October of 2004. You can find it if you line up all the ones and zeros. Standby for further instructions.

That's the Patterson film.

In grad school (a few decades ago) one of my professors had a copy of that film and I spent several hours watching it forwards, backwards, and at all speeds.

If you can show somehow that bigfoot exists, then that's probably a pretty good film of him. By itself it proves nothing.

And that's not a human giant anyway.

Where's the evidence?
