I don't understand why it's such an unbelievable thing for lot of people to accept. If giant lizards (dinosaurs) can exist in the past, its not unreasonable to think giant humans might have also once existed in the past.

[bradleyforester]

If the history channel was doing stuff like this instead of endless pawnstars episodes, I would still watch on tv.

[ducatimikep]

The bones were “unfortunately lost to time.” Nothing suspicious there…

[donmccoy]

There are a LOT of grainy photos...but ALL of the "giant" bones are ALWAYS "lost" to antiquity. You'd think someone would make sure to keep track of at least SOME of them. Or ONE!

I find it interesting that the giants of Winnemucca were cannibals. Folklore all around the world consistently has the giants in the story wanting to eat humans. Fascinating real world connection there.

[mclayton]

In my part of the country, the Cherokee told tales of subterranean "Moon-Eyed" people. Fascinating stuff. There is so much ancient history that we do not know about, understand, been forgotten, or otherwise been suppressed.

[judelarkin]

It’s so convenient that all these skeletons have been “lost to time.”

[justmycents]

The skulls were on display until about 10 years ago, before they were "ceremonially buried". You cannot make this up. Seems like someone is taking care of human history.

There are also accounts of red haired giants in Patagonia depicted on ancient maps by explorers. The name Patagonia also means "large foot".

[rosie]

In England near to Cambridge 5 giant human skeletons were discovered in a prehistoric mound.
They measured from 9ft to over 14ft tall.
While being stored in a cambridge museum, awaiting the cabinet to be built to display them, they mysteriously disappeared.
Only a print of a short newspaper article and faded picture of the find were printed in a book which documented the history of Cambridgeshire.

I remember seeing another video about this and an archaeologist said himself that his degree and license to dig would have been revoked if he spoke on anything to do with giant humans when they ( his team) discovered giant human skeletons.

[VinceAdamsTraining]

My wife was a native American. All of her uncles were over six feet tall. Her grandfather was seven feet tall, and one of her cousins was seven foot three. One person that large in a family may be an abnormality, but two is something to investigate.

[adharshcs]

Not only in the west giant skeletons are found all over the world.

[mi-t-mouth]

would be interesting to get DNA from skeletal remains to check against current populations

[vicgua]

Im from philippines my friend also found a large/long bone inside a cave about 8-12ft tall human? And many large footprints.. many stories about unusual bones that have been found in philippine caves

[Elfyja]

what shocks me more is how they are like ''well we cant really say this is true, because its labeled as folklore'' even though the evidence is there?? absolutely nuts.

[obiknobi]

I watched a documentary long ago, where a professor was interviewed about a similar subject. He mentioned that most of modern information about the past was recorded within a very traditional and limited framework. Ancient myths, stories and fables are largely dismissed as fairy tales.

[regularjohn]

Around 2008 archeologists found evidence of a previously unknown human sub-species named "Denisovans" named after the cave in Siberia where they were first discovered.
Considering how little fossil evidence we have to confirm the existence of Denisovans (a handful of fragmented bone & teeth) & how recently the discovery was made, it is entirely possible even likely that there are still undiscovered archaic human species or subspecies as yet unidentified by science.

[ScoochPascucci]

Many of the giant bones that have been found in the United states( which have miraculously gone missing), have been found near where the glacial shelf stopped during the last ice age. Central to northern Pennsylvania and Ohio. They have maps with all the remains that were found and there are hundreds if not more
