tl;dr Giants are common in all cultures, there's physical evidence for them, I think they're real. Why aren't people looking into this, why does no one know?

YOU'RE A BIG GUY

I'm not very good at time periods but I hope you get where I'm coming from.

But when he had more oxygen in the atmosphere during like the jurassic periods and shit, there were huge ass bugs??

So there's a chance there could have been a point where we still had a lot of oxygen as mammals developed, making human ancestors considerably bigger and potentially leaving evidence? Just a thought.

The physical evidence is all faked.

I don't mean that in a "Bah! That couldn't possibly be true!" way, I mean that the femur you are talking about is a sculpture based on reports that were never confirmed by anyone. Every instance I know of a dig discovering a giant is an obvious fake or a 100 year old legend with no surviving evidence.

My question is, could a Giant have a baby with a normal person.

Or would a Male Giant kill a normal human woman.

This makes sense in terms of a cause for gigantism, but a counter-argument is the fact that historically, humans were actually overall shorter in periods where oxygen was more available. Mind those two things are not linked at all.

I think you're on the right track though, just not hitting the nail on the head. You gave me an idea though. Maybe it's not necessarily that extra oxygen lead to the development of these Giants, but perhaps helped support humans enduring the genetic disorders that would cause such gigantism. People born with gigantism today are usually very frail and weak, and overall don't last very long (usually not even surviving outside of the womb at all). Maybe it wasn't oxygen, since the oxygen level has been generally the same all of human history despite the recent introduction of pollution, but I think you're definitely getting closer there. Some other phenomena maybe made it so they can't survive as much anymore or something was in the air or food or overall environment back then that although didn't promote growth, maybe allowed the survival of those who would suffer from such growth.

I've seen this as well too. Using snopes on literally anything giant related rings up a "FALSE" on the first result, and most articles for evidence are mainly in debunking the evidence rather than promoting it. Still, there's stuff I've seen out there that has been downright convincing, though I'd need help in looking for it.

I doubt we'll ever know without having actually looked into the science of it. But the point you're making about survival of genetic disorder makes sense and these theories are a step forward. This kind of thing can definitely come down to science if you think about it, so it's probable.

What I really need is solid evidence, something out there that says, "Uh yeah we found some Giants dude." Then I could try to look at datings of records and looking at various trends that fit the records. I.e. Your previous theory: Oxygen level changes or introduction of pollution over time vs records of Giants. Then I could look at what supported gigantism of this kind, try to see if I can pinpoint a gene, and look at a coincidental modern example and use "tests" (study by-product of previously recorded data like heights and weights of patients for something unrelated) to see exactly what caused it. Then I can see if that supposed cause is evident in previous cases and build up from there.

>In Jubilee's it talks about giants having sex with women. And animals... Its where the Egyptians gods came from.
>In Norse mythology the woman usually died. The child lived though.
>in native mythology they had kids and the woman survived. They were cannibals though.

Look up the Nephilim

Demon/human offspring that are thought by some to be the reason for the Great Flood in the time of Noah

We are animals who evolved to fear larger creatures such as mammoths,bears, tigers etc.
Giants are part of our desire as a species to overcome our limitations because in nature, size is often associated with more power.
And we humans are known for our desire to control nature

>So, Giants. Stories of Giants are prominent in almost every culture, whether that's the Old Testament talking about Goliath

Goliath was in all likelihood just a big guy. The giants of the Old Testament are typically held to be the Nephilim

Giants kind of do exist (human skeletons 8-11 feet tall have been discovered), it would moreso be anything bigger, or a full on race if giants, that could be more controversial, but considering Pygmies are a thing I dont see it being impossible.

hint
>higher the consciousness of people higher they are as humans generally
>look 100-150years ago people have bean shorter

in past time of Atlantis and after for long time
>humans have bean higher then we are now, they had higher consciousness

Northern white men are giants compared to subhumans. And now you know the true history of world.

I think it might just be prevalent in a lot of cultures because it's such an easy idea to think of. Lot's of cultures have myths, and what is easier to think up, and scary as well, than humans... but bigger!!
It's just the kind of idea that will naturally come to anyone who plays around with the ideas of what monsters could be long enough.
