A five foot tall *thigh bone*.

You need to read more carefully, I said five foot tall thigh bone, not five foot tall giant.

I am merely quoting the author of the book. He said he was of average height, and the thigh bone was as tall as he was. I am assuming the average height back then was five foot.
