Maybe.

I am far more interested in this though:

I know all about those Huges, they did an expedition there recently to try and detect these metal domes and they did, they used a metal detector because they had sunken beneath the surface.. still a mystery. They need to go and excavate but it is in a very remote area.

Many historical documents including the old testament and Sumerian writings suggest they did..

The answer to your question however is, of course, no.

Giant humans on the scale represented in that video can not and could never have existed. Not only "unlikely" but flat-out unpossible in the literal sense of my made-up word.

I leave it as an exercise for the ignorant yet easily swayed to figure out why. (In case that was too subtle, that's you Cori )



I missed you, glad you could show up in my thread, like clockwork, like a doggie to cheese doodles

(didn't watch the vid)
I'm not in any way saying there were giants ,I've seen no evidence that convinces me there were but if you acknowledge Gigantopithecus. existed ,you have acknowledged the bipedal form can support that size.It is scientifically possible that Gigantopithecus. and humans could have interbred or that we carry the genes that would make that size possible.I don't think the "it is not scientifically possible" argument holds much weight at all.On the other hand the people who believe in "giants" fall short when it comes to any real evidence.

After getting owned so completely and thoroughly that you locked your last thread to hide it... I would think you'd give some of what I say at least a little research.


But, since it's based in math, physics and logic you dutifully avoid it like the plague.

So, you didn't watch the vid and have no idea what is being discussed yet firmly believe that the "not scientifically possible" argument doesn't hold up?


Wait... whut?


You should probably watch the video - that way you know at least what's being discussed before you put your foot in your mouth.


A humanoid with a 5 foot shoe size is TOTALLY IMPOSSIBLE. It's not scientifically possible, not mathematically possible, and not physically possible. You're talking about a humanoid 36 feet tall weighing more than 43,000 pounds - heavier than an African Bull Elephant and three times heavier than a Tyrannosaurus Rex.


He would take one step and every bone in his body would shatter like glass - and nothing that evolution could do would prevent that.
