Giants

36 Foot Tall Human


Text courtesy of Proving The Bible

A. Present day modern man which averages about 6-feet tall + or - several inches or more.

B. 15-foot human skeleton found in southeast Turkey in late 1950's in the Euphrates valley during road construction. Many tombs containing giants were uncovered here. This pertains to the picture of the giant human femur and myself above.

C. Maximinus Thrax Ceaser of Rome 235-238 A.D. This was an 8' 6" skeleton.

D. Goliath was about 9 feet + or - a few inches. I Samuel 17:4 late 11th century.

E. King Og spoken of in Deuteronomy 3:11 whose iron bedstead was approximately 14-feet by 6-feet wide. King Og was at least 12-feet tall, yet some claim up to 18.

F. A 19'6" human skeleton found in 1577 A.D. under an overturned oak tree in the Canton of Lucerne.

G. 23-foot tall skeleton found in 1456 A.D. beside a river in Valence, France.

H. A 25' 6 " skeleton found in 1613 A.D. near the castle of Chaumont in France. This was claimed to be a nearly complete find.

I. Almost beyond comprehension or believability was the find of the two separate 36-foot human remains uncovered by Carthaginians somewhere between 200-600 B.C.

--------------------------
Well I don't know what to think, theres absolutely no solid proof or anything along those lines. But that says nothing, Dinosaurs seem surreal, but they were a fact...right? So hell maybe its just a mystery that could be solved in the future.

I do believe that some form of humans in the past could have been really tall, but the 36 foot one seems a bit ridiclous. Also, Goliath was fictional.

A lot of the findings are really old, do they have proof of them now? Or were they just recorded in something we found in a historical document? Men throughout history have been known to lie.

lol. Can you imagine that though, if there were giants walking around? You could hear him walking miles away. I think it'd be pretty cool, as long as they were lovable giants.

I bet there were probably a few cases where someone was pretty big but I wouldn't say anything over 9 feet. Cuz you figure how many people there are in the world right now and there is no one remotely close to any of those heights.

As far as I know Goliath was real.

They called his people giants when really they were 7' foot tall tops.

Back then that size was unheard of and they considered it "giant like"

But then I guess it depends on your faith....

Who knows....moving on

The way they described Goliath in books and shit, it makes him seem a bit bigger then 9 feet tall. So im guessing David was hittin around the 6 feet mark then.

David was probably 5'6" or some shit and Goliath was 7'2"

That's my guess.
