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.

Those two photos you posted in your replies to me are obvious phonies. Where's the evidence?

Justice Department likes to post pictures; lots and lot of crazy pictures (must have recently learned some HTML code) and with no supporting evidence to back them up and most if not all of them are photo shopped. (And giving the poster the benefit of the doubt, I think it’s just an attempt at being “humorous” – pardon the pun).

Humor, OK. Got it now.

On this website we've been seeing the weirdest of weird fringe claims lately so its getting hard to tell.

I guess that's what comes of running the scientists off and letting the kooks take over, eh?

I could comment on that photo, but I’m pretty sure I’d be banned.

The Giants are there for all to see in the Book of Enoch. Referenced in Genesis, this book was recovered from the oral traditions of the Ethiopians. It described a land of giants who mingled with the everyday humans.

My tag line: (”Comedy is allied to justice.” Aristophenes)- I don’t know what it means exactly, but I like it :-)

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.

Thanks Coyoteman, at least you didn't dismiss the film out of hand.

Contrary to public opinion, I'm just getting the hang of Photoshop

No, this isn't a toy, but at 8ft 5ins Leonid Stadnik makes this car look like a Mini

New world's tallest man stands at a towering 8ft 5ins

by REBECCA CAMBER Last updated at 12:18 28 September 2007

He has spent years shrinking away from the limelight and at school his nickname was 'titch' because he was so tiny. But Ukrainian Leonid Stadnyk has now officially become the world's tallest man standing at a towering 8ft 5ins in tall. Measuring an impressive 8ins taller than the previous record holder, Mongolia's Bao Xishun, it has long been suspected that Stadnyk should hold the official title of the world's tallest man.

But until now the 37-year-old former veterinarian has always refused to be officially measured for the Guinness Book of Records as he hates his height and didn't want to be famous.

The towering giant who lives in Podoliantsi, a tiny village in Ukraine has called his height 'God's biggest punishment for me' and refuses to look in the mirror. His extraordinary growth spurt started at the age of 14 after surgery on a benign brain tumour stimulated his pituitary gland

How many tall men does it take to change a light bulb?

Previously at school, the Ukrainian was one of the smallest boys in his class and he used to be known to fellow pupils as 'titch'.

But his condition known as acromegalic gigantism, saw him grow so fast that suit trousers which once fitted him perfectly were 12 inches too short within two years. He now sleeps on two beds joined together lengthwise, weighs nearly 32 stone, and has 17-inch feet. His gargantuan palms measure more than a foot in diameter. Despite persistent attempts by the Guinness Book of Records to officially measure him over the last three years, Stadnyk had always refused until he met London growth expert, Professor Michael Besser.

Ukraine's President Viktor Yushchenko, left, shakes hands with Leonid Stadnik, 36, believed to be the world's tallest man

On examination, the specialist found to his surprise that the brain tumour which had haunted Stadnyk for more than 20 years had naturally died off - saving Stadnyk's life and finally halting his extraordinary growth spurt.

It was Professor Besser's discovery - filmed for a documentary on the Discovery Channel in December last year- that led to the emergence of his true height after it was measured officially in Kiev.

Now he has been added to the record books in America, although the 2008 Guinness Book of Records won't be published in the UK until September 28 this year. The former veterinarian, now lives with his mother in a cramped three-room, one-storey house in northwestern Ukraine where he has to contort his frame to get in the doorway.

Ukrainian vet declared world's tallest man Posted Thu Aug 9, 2007 9:00am AEST

A giant veterinary surgeon from north-west Ukraine has been declared the tallest living human, Guinness World Records says.

"Guinness World Records has announced the new tallest man in the world as ... Leonid Stadnyk of Ukraine who was found to be 2.57 metres in 2006," the book's spokeswoman Amarilis Espinoza said.

In the upcoming 2008 edition of the record book, Mr Stadnyk will replace Bao Xishun, a native of Inner Mongolia in China who stands 2.36 metres, she said."

He's even taller when he levitates. What do you think - is that another 4 inches off the deck or what?
