1
00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:19,920
Okay so now we're going to look at evidence of ancient giants in North America. This is a book

2
00:00:19,920 --> 00:00:26,560
I've written with my co-author Jim Vierreck or giants on record and we've been researching giants

3
00:00:26,560 --> 00:00:32,400
for many years. It's a bit of a strange subject. It's all over the internet. There's lots of photos

4
00:00:32,400 --> 00:00:38,800
of giants everywhere you look. Here are some that have been found all over the internet. It's

5
00:00:38,800 --> 00:00:45,600
even in various blogs and books and other lectures by various researchers. However, every single

6
00:00:45,600 --> 00:00:52,880
image you see here is actually a hoax. Many of these were created in a Photoshop competition

7
00:00:52,880 --> 00:01:00,320
from 2002 and have appeared everywhere since then. However, this has become a problem when looking

8
00:01:00,320 --> 00:01:07,360
at the serious research on actual giant human beings existing around the world. Today we're going

9
00:01:07,360 --> 00:01:14,160
to focus on North America. Here's a graphic we put together demonstrating the size range of what

10
00:01:14,160 --> 00:01:20,160
we've been looking at some of the accounts that we've uncovered on the North American area. This is

11
00:01:20,160 --> 00:01:27,040
a six foot down here and we have ranges going up from seven foot all the way to 18 feet. Now many

12
00:01:27,040 --> 00:01:34,640
of these accounts were actually recorded in academic journals in scientific papers, even on display

13
00:01:34,640 --> 00:01:42,720
at universities and colleges. But one of the main sources we look at is the newspaper record

14
00:01:42,720 --> 00:01:51,360
as well as town and county histories, other academic sources, doctors, notes and also people who

15
00:01:51,360 --> 00:01:57,920
had discovered them over the centuries of building and exploring through North America. This is

16
00:01:57,920 --> 00:02:03,760
a map that was put together by Cecilia Hall, the friend of ours. This is before we got the full

17
00:02:03,760 --> 00:02:08,000
amount of accounts. We didn't put every single one on here because it would have been just a

18
00:02:08,000 --> 00:02:15,120
purple blur because there's so many, especially here. This is the kind of peak area where these

19
00:02:15,120 --> 00:02:20,960
giants would have existed. So what we're looking at here, we're looking at a timeline as well,

20
00:02:20,960 --> 00:02:26,560
a various different races of giants existing in North America. For example, in the southwest

21
00:02:27,280 --> 00:02:32,640
and over on the channel Islands, Catalina Island, we find evidence of human occupation going

22
00:02:32,720 --> 00:02:40,320
back between 40 and 10,000 years ago. We get very ancient shell and midden mounts up the coast

23
00:02:40,320 --> 00:02:49,120
of California and also down in Florida. We have also very ancient midden and shell mounts as well

24
00:02:49,120 --> 00:02:55,440
as Redhead giants in this area and around this area which we'll have a look at later, specifically

25
00:02:55,520 --> 00:03:02,880
around the area of Nevada. The main area here is the Mount Culture area which would have been the

26
00:03:02,880 --> 00:03:10,160
Adina people. Also the recipient culture, the hope well and others. Starting really about

27
00:03:10,160 --> 00:03:18,000
3,000 BC onwards with the very early Adina or the Arcade Culture of the area. We also have evidence

28
00:03:18,000 --> 00:03:22,800
up in New England and New York. This is interesting because there's a mega-lithic sites up in the

29
00:03:23,760 --> 00:03:29,440
area. We're going to start our survey by going much further south. We're going to have a look at

30
00:03:30,080 --> 00:03:36,560
Patagonia, the southern tip of South America and we're going to head back up north. The reason

31
00:03:36,560 --> 00:03:43,440
this is intriguing because many of the explorers who are traveling around the world in the 1500s onwards

32
00:03:44,080 --> 00:03:50,400
and sailing around the coasts of the Americas actually witnessed very very tall giants

33
00:03:51,360 --> 00:03:57,680
existing in Teodolfoigo, the southern tip of Chile and Argentina. Also over to the owner

34
00:03:57,680 --> 00:04:05,040
silence and also into Antarctica. Fred and a Magalan, even France's Drake which we'll look at

35
00:04:05,040 --> 00:04:11,280
in a moment. But even in 1901 they were still being reported and this is Captain Frederick Cook

36
00:04:12,400 --> 00:04:18,880
who actually photographed himself with some giants down on the owner's islands around this area.

37
00:04:18,960 --> 00:04:26,080
This was actually the route he took. So even up to 1901 from the 1500s, this is Francis Drake who

38
00:04:26,080 --> 00:04:34,400
witnessed some himself in 1578. We have many many accounts between seven and ten feet tall

39
00:04:34,400 --> 00:04:40,640
found in this part of the world and this really triggered a wave of gyatology in the 1500s and

40
00:04:40,640 --> 00:04:47,600
early 1600s that even appeared in books that were coming out and Britain at the time and even some

41
00:04:48,560 --> 00:04:55,120
local Native American people who are being kidnapped and being tried to bring them back to Europe

42
00:04:55,920 --> 00:05:00,560
obviously some of that failed and they died on the journey. This is shows you the world in campus.

43
00:05:00,560 --> 00:05:07,200
This is the book that was eventually released from the book by the Francis Drake's nephew

44
00:05:07,920 --> 00:05:15,280
talking about his journeys around the Americas. Even went up to the California encost up to the area

45
00:05:15,360 --> 00:05:21,600
possibly around San Francisco where he met some giants when he came in land to get a repair

46
00:05:21,600 --> 00:05:28,000
his boat said to collect supplies and they were so chaotic and unruly that they tried to crown him

47
00:05:28,000 --> 00:05:34,240
chief of their tribe which would have been quite an interesting experience. We have other accounts

48
00:05:34,240 --> 00:05:45,040
of early explorers witnessing them firsthand. These include a Lanzo Alvarez de Penida in 1519

49
00:05:45,280 --> 00:05:51,200
and he describes them as a race of giants from 10 to 11 palms in height which would have been anywhere

50
00:05:51,200 --> 00:05:57,360
from 7 foot to 8 feet tall and he also described a race of pigments or dwarfs who were living with the

51
00:05:57,360 --> 00:06:04,720
giants. Other accounts even in the Caribbean this was written by historian Peter Marta and he

52
00:06:05,760 --> 00:06:12,560
is quite strange it describes how he thought giants were created and he said the report ran

53
00:06:12,560 --> 00:06:17,760
that the natives were white and the king and queens giants whose bones while babies had been

54
00:06:17,760 --> 00:06:24,000
softened with an ointment of strange herbs that needed and stretched like wax by masters of the art.

55
00:06:24,000 --> 00:06:30,000
Leaving the poor objects of their magic half dead until after repeated manipulations they finally

56
00:06:30,000 --> 00:06:36,320
attained their great size so this appears to be a way you can become a giant. There were many

57
00:06:36,320 --> 00:06:41,040
many other explorers which you feature in the book giants on record we have the white indians of

58
00:06:41,920 --> 00:06:51,120
which were reported in 1521 there was Jacora giants that were captured 70 of them were taken back

59
00:06:52,320 --> 00:06:59,680
tried to take back to Europe in 1528 we had Penida Filo de Neverez who witnessed giants in the area

60
00:06:59,680 --> 00:07:06,960
of Tampa Bay in Florida describing them as very very tall later 78 foot giants were discovered

61
00:07:07,040 --> 00:07:16,320
in this area and the stories go on with these explorers Coronado Francisco Coronado witness several

62
00:07:16,320 --> 00:07:22,960
tribes of giants Hernando de Alcaron brought back with him at Native American so large and told

63
00:07:22,960 --> 00:07:30,560
that the best man in his army reached only to his chest we have Hernando de Soto who triggered the brilliant

64
00:07:30,640 --> 00:07:37,680
story about Tuscaloosa and an all-out war was triggered when they tried to kidnap him and he

65
00:07:37,680 --> 00:07:43,920
was said to be over eight feet tall we were so the Tusco oneux these are the air this is the area

66
00:07:43,920 --> 00:07:49,920
around Virginia and this is a picture of one of the giants that was witnessed by captain John Smith

67
00:07:50,480 --> 00:07:55,440
and a multiple other stories that kind of fit with the idea that giants were indeed witnessed

68
00:07:56,320 --> 00:08:02,480
over and over again right up until the early 1900s and in the book we have an entire chapter devoted

69
00:08:02,480 --> 00:08:09,760
to even presidents of the United States who met some of these giants New England's an area

70
00:08:09,760 --> 00:08:15,920
that Jim Vera lives up in researching up there for some time this just shows you the tribal areas

71
00:08:15,920 --> 00:08:22,160
of New England as it was recorded in the late 15th early 1600s and this is a map of where

72
00:08:23,120 --> 00:08:29,360
some notable giant accounts have been unearthed notably up here in dea field where the area

73
00:08:29,360 --> 00:08:35,440
where Jim began his research but we did some research up there Jim came across George Sheldon's

74
00:08:35,440 --> 00:08:43,200
amazing town history of dea field where it describes giant skeletons and bones all around the area

75
00:08:43,200 --> 00:08:50,000
and even on Martha's vineyard we have a dolman which often associate with giants in Britain and

76
00:08:50,080 --> 00:08:57,040
Europe found on one of these islands where giants were unearthed and then we have the amazing

77
00:08:57,040 --> 00:09:04,320
past gone way he was a powerful shaman of the Pentecook tribe in the area of New Hampshire

78
00:09:04,880 --> 00:09:12,560
and in the 1600s he bought together all the tribal peoples together to fight the aggressive

79
00:09:12,560 --> 00:09:18,080
Mohawk nation he was said to be nearly eight feet tall he lived right in extra an area we're

80
00:09:18,080 --> 00:09:24,960
in fact there's now a stone circle or a stone arrangement at least called Druid's Hill stone circle

81
00:09:24,960 --> 00:09:31,040
and this could have been part of their culture back in the early 1600s because it was reported

82
00:09:31,040 --> 00:09:37,840
in 1659 that this did indeed exist in this area with numerous accounts we have Connecticut here

83
00:09:37,840 --> 00:09:47,360
from 1901 a giant so it uncovered many different bones even a petrified giant over eight feet tall

84
00:09:47,440 --> 00:09:53,520
was reported in 1897 we're going to detail in the book about all these different accounts

85
00:09:54,480 --> 00:10:01,440
if we had over towards New York and Pennsylvania we have a certain accounts which were reported

86
00:10:01,440 --> 00:10:06,080
by academics and we're going to look at some of the accounts here from an academic viewpoint because

87
00:10:06,720 --> 00:10:11,680
most of the bones as we know have been disappeared by the Smithsonian also by NAC

88
00:10:11,680 --> 00:10:18,400
per the native American grace protection a repatriation act where the bones and burial goods and

89
00:10:18,400 --> 00:10:23,440
skeletons and so forth are taken back a repatriated and rebarried by the local tribes

90
00:10:24,320 --> 00:10:31,600
this was excavation by archaeologist dees fissia 49 skeletons were unearthed in Washington County

91
00:10:31,600 --> 00:10:38,880
Pennsylvania some of them were nearly eight feet high which is quite remarkable and 26 inches

92
00:10:39,280 --> 00:10:46,880
across the chest here we have him examining huge bones and very large teeth and it was witnessed

93
00:10:46,880 --> 00:10:52,480
by various different people even though you can't see every clearly in this picture and reported

94
00:10:52,480 --> 00:10:59,360
in academic journals there's various accounts in New York state now New York state is interesting

95
00:10:59,360 --> 00:11:04,240
because it's one of the areas in the eastern side has megallithic constructions on the western

96
00:11:04,240 --> 00:11:10,480
side it has mound mounds all over the landscape there Norman broken shire his done some excellent

97
00:11:10,480 --> 00:11:17,440
research of this area he's found 28 pound sledge hammers reports of them and also large

98
00:11:17,440 --> 00:11:23,680
sort of found suggesting this whole area was inhabited by giants skeletons were found in this

99
00:11:23,680 --> 00:11:29,840
account one of extraordinary size the skull was comparatively large and the jaw was so large

100
00:11:29,920 --> 00:11:34,720
you could be placed around the jaw of a normal human being and this is one of the accounts we're

101
00:11:34,720 --> 00:11:41,120
going to look at the double rows of teeth and nanotomic anomaly associated with these giants

102
00:11:41,840 --> 00:11:49,280
and it continues in 1854 we have other accounts of double teeth in each jaw with a very large

103
00:11:49,280 --> 00:11:56,000
size skeleton and it continues this one it talks about entire double rows of teeth

104
00:11:56,320 --> 00:12:03,680
and this is an account from Catarango's County New York where the gentleman Charles Huntington

105
00:12:03,680 --> 00:12:09,440
claims he was present when he was young of skeletons unearth in 1876 which were nine foot and seven

106
00:12:09,440 --> 00:12:14,800
foot tall a male and a female and he created these in honour of the discoveries that were made

107
00:12:14,800 --> 00:12:21,280
in his childhood but the main area we're going to of the giants really and we're going to look at

108
00:12:21,280 --> 00:12:27,760
here is this area here the Ohio Valley and also drifting into West Virginia as well but Ohio

109
00:12:27,760 --> 00:12:33,840
is the richest area of giants really we really have to admit that the best research we've come

110
00:12:33,840 --> 00:12:39,600
across we've worked with him now is Ross Hamilton that we call him the godfather of giantology

111
00:12:39,600 --> 00:12:47,280
and he's also a researcher of serpent mound in peobles Ohio this is a very very interesting earthwork

112
00:12:48,240 --> 00:12:56,480
it's 1370 feet long and it's least built in least about 300 BC and you can see it's a plume serpent

113
00:12:56,480 --> 00:13:04,400
with like kind of wings if you like coming off the neck of the serpent which is an ancient tradition

114
00:13:04,400 --> 00:13:12,000
we find all over the Americas and even around the world but just prior to 1891 professor Frederick Ward

115
00:13:12,000 --> 00:13:18,240
Putnam of Harvard University he was a biologist and anthropologist the open one of the burial

116
00:13:18,240 --> 00:13:23,040
mounds on the property of the great serpent mound and it suggested that this photo was actually

117
00:13:23,040 --> 00:13:28,640
from there this is actually a postcard that was available in the early 1900s talking about seven

118
00:13:28,640 --> 00:13:34,240
foot skeleton skeleton of mound build a seven foot in length serpent mound and he saw he must have

119
00:13:34,240 --> 00:13:38,960
been the one who excavated because he was the only person who actually excavated this area

120
00:13:39,040 --> 00:13:43,840
we have other accounts from serpent mound now it was going to be published soon by Jeffrey Wilson

121
00:13:43,840 --> 00:13:49,280
who lives in this area and he's gone deep into the archives of found evidence of potentially

122
00:13:49,280 --> 00:13:55,440
an over nine foot skeleton being found within the mounds at serpent mound. Now even though the

123
00:13:55,440 --> 00:14:01,920
dating of serpent mound is only around 300 BC officially at the very earliest one of the mounds

124
00:14:01,920 --> 00:14:07,680
there which these apparently came from is labored an adenum mound which would have been much earlier

125
00:14:07,680 --> 00:14:14,960
and so we know there's more archaic activity in this area than is admitted by archaeologist and

126
00:14:14,960 --> 00:14:21,120
academics. Mary yeta is also another very interesting mound it's said to be a hope well site

127
00:14:21,120 --> 00:14:28,960
it's a complex really of squares and small pyramid like earthen structures with a large mound one end

128
00:14:29,520 --> 00:14:39,200
which kind of sort of marks the sacred spot of the area. Interestingly in 1901 and a skeleton

129
00:14:39,200 --> 00:14:46,160
of abnormal size over seven feet tall was discovered in one of the earthworks you can see the shape

130
00:14:46,160 --> 00:14:52,400
and the geometry and these are very similar to what we find the kind of pyramids we find in central

131
00:14:52,480 --> 00:15:00,400
America. This is an interesting account from Indiana from 1903 from Anderson in Teligensia

132
00:15:00,400 --> 00:15:06,560
and it dials a grew in spite of age and this is very interesting because it's one of several

133
00:15:06,560 --> 00:15:12,240
reports where you could speak of an enormous skeleton being buried with corn and then when planted

134
00:15:12,240 --> 00:15:17,760
it was taken out of the burial and this was like 60 feet below the surface or more. They when

135
00:15:17,760 --> 00:15:22,880
implanted this corn and actually grew corn and it became this really powerful really strong

136
00:15:24,160 --> 00:15:28,400
crop which was then used and spread out through the area so even though this is possibly

137
00:15:28,400 --> 00:15:33,760
hundreds or even thousands of years old it proves that they were working with agriculture and

138
00:15:33,760 --> 00:15:40,000
they may have had fertility technologies working with the ancient energies of the earth which

139
00:15:40,000 --> 00:15:46,800
were described in one of the other lectures we've done in this series. In West Virginia it's a very

140
00:15:47,120 --> 00:15:54,000
interesting area for giants, Hulk Hanna Wild Valley, Charleston, the Great Smith mound and many

141
00:15:54,000 --> 00:15:59,680
other areas going all the way over to Washington DC to Virginia. Great Creek mound is one of the

142
00:15:59,680 --> 00:16:07,200
most important which we'll look at in a moment in 1906 a report from the Maryland Academy of Scientists

143
00:16:07,200 --> 00:16:12,560
talk about skeleton over eight feet tall. That was discovered it was actually in a good state

144
00:16:12,560 --> 00:16:19,760
of preservation and it was actually on display there as well and so we have an academic institution

145
00:16:19,760 --> 00:16:26,080
with an eight foot skeleton potentially on display where it is now we don't know probably taken away

146
00:16:26,080 --> 00:16:32,640
by Nagpurah but it proves that even in the academic record we have very interesting accounts.

147
00:16:32,640 --> 00:16:38,880
1959 the brilliant Donald Drogrew, Dr Donald Drogrew, he was a curator of the section of Man at the

148
00:16:38,880 --> 00:16:45,520
Carnegie Museum and he are the seven foot two skeleton during an excavation or really in a

149
00:16:45,520 --> 00:16:50,480
blitteration of the crescent mound in north West Virginia. Not too far just a few miles away from

150
00:16:50,480 --> 00:16:56,400
grave Creek mound and this is where he started describing that Edina Jor which is this huge

151
00:16:56,400 --> 00:17:01,840
powerful jaw which was found in many of the accounts especially in the mound culture sites and

152
00:17:01,840 --> 00:17:06,080
it's report there was so large you could place them over your face or the largest man in the

153
00:17:06,960 --> 00:17:12,400
many many accounts of this we do a whole section in the book about this. There's also unusually

154
00:17:12,400 --> 00:17:19,520
thick skulls he discovered robust and massive frames in decaying profound muscularity which suggests

155
00:17:19,520 --> 00:17:25,280
this wasn't just a case about cramabilly this was actually a case of giant human beings existing

156
00:17:25,280 --> 00:17:33,360
in this part of North America. This is actually an actual photo of the seven foot two skeleton

157
00:17:33,360 --> 00:17:41,280
with a burnt head and burnt upper portion of the body torso in the mound and any published this

158
00:17:41,280 --> 00:17:46,640
he wrote about this but it pretty much got ignored and eventually suppressed and this is the case

159
00:17:46,640 --> 00:17:53,680
we find with many of these stories this is the famous grave Creek mound 70 feet tall is one of the

160
00:17:53,680 --> 00:18:02,320
largest in America it's 295 feet diameter 60,000 tons of earth we used to create this there's a

161
00:18:02,320 --> 00:18:08,960
complex of mounts, a diagonal earthwork stone towers up on the bluffs and other pieces of this

162
00:18:08,960 --> 00:18:15,760
great complex spreading around the area there were various interpretations and observations about

163
00:18:15,760 --> 00:18:21,040
what was actually discovered here but it's we kind of concluded in the book we couldn't fully

164
00:18:21,040 --> 00:18:25,760
conclude it because there's different stories about different people who claim to have existed

165
00:18:25,760 --> 00:18:31,040
when this was being excavated but somewhere between seven and eight foot tall skeletons were found

166
00:18:31,040 --> 00:18:38,480
in this mound along with this which is the grave Creek tablet or the grave Creek stone.

167
00:18:38,480 --> 00:18:44,480
It's only a few centimeters wide but it was it's so important because when Barry fell it was a

168
00:18:44,480 --> 00:18:51,280
Harvard epigrapha he pronounced actually that this was a punic or Phoenician or even cananites

169
00:18:51,280 --> 00:18:58,080
so we're talking about extremely ancient writing which is related to the Bible learns being found

170
00:18:58,160 --> 00:19:03,680
in a mound with giants in North America and this should have been a breakthrough this should have

171
00:19:03,680 --> 00:19:09,120
been a big story it should have exploded and really connected what was going on in the ancient

172
00:19:09,120 --> 00:19:15,360
well but it got lost you got disappeared and eventually the story got suppressed and forgotten

173
00:19:18,880 --> 00:19:22,480
in Kentucky there's various accounts here which are very interesting we have the Dover

174
00:19:22,480 --> 00:19:26,560
Mound which we're going to look at there are many other ones as well we feature in the book

175
00:19:27,840 --> 00:19:34,960
at Dover Mound there's a book written about it by William Snyder Web and Child Charles Ernest Snow

176
00:19:34,960 --> 00:19:42,240
that came out in 1959 and they discovered a seven foot skeleton here during excavations in 1952

177
00:19:42,800 --> 00:19:49,040
and like the Don De Dregue report this account occurs in the 50s and also by very highly

178
00:19:49,120 --> 00:19:56,080
respected academic individuals and this is something which has been not been really recognised

179
00:19:56,080 --> 00:20:02,240
and expanded upon by researchers so I've to try to sort of point out that even the academics were

180
00:20:02,240 --> 00:20:08,560
dealing with this they were describing these features of these giants this is also found in northern

181
00:20:08,560 --> 00:20:15,840
Kentucky this is actually on display now in the Muteu Museum in Philadelphia it's a very strange museum

182
00:20:15,920 --> 00:20:22,080
this is so is the size of it it's 7 foot 6 and I looked into this and the report stated that

183
00:20:22,080 --> 00:20:28,560
this was indeed found in northern Kentucky and it was found by the owner who gave it to the museum

184
00:20:28,560 --> 00:20:32,640
but said look you can't say where this came from you can't say where I found this and he

185
00:20:32,640 --> 00:20:36,960
would fit and so there's like a blank as to where it was actually found so if it was found in

186
00:20:36,960 --> 00:20:41,920
the Mound which it may have been could have been the reason why he refused to give the information

187
00:20:42,000 --> 00:20:47,280
because it's an illegal dig this could actually be the only skeleton currently on display in

188
00:20:47,280 --> 00:20:54,480
northern America of one of the giant mound builders we have various other stories various other

189
00:20:54,480 --> 00:21:02,400
areas around America for example mound villain Alabama in 1930 it was reported that 7 foot 6 skeleton

190
00:21:02,400 --> 00:21:09,600
was unearthed and and there was an excavator on the Doctor Walton B. Joan who led the excavation

191
00:21:10,560 --> 00:21:16,560
and he wrote about this and there's different people followed up on this but it kind of got

192
00:21:16,560 --> 00:21:22,720
closed down they were even on display in a kind of on-site museum which is featured on this postcard here

193
00:21:24,240 --> 00:21:29,680
and that obviously got closed down by Nagpur and so forth but various researchers were done

194
00:21:29,680 --> 00:21:34,320
Jim contacted the people here and they claimed they knew nothing about it and there was nothing

195
00:21:34,400 --> 00:21:41,040
written about it but it was actually in the academic reports again of over seven foot tall skeletons

196
00:21:42,480 --> 00:21:46,960
this is shows you one of the beautiful stone art effects that was actually found at this site

197
00:21:46,960 --> 00:21:50,880
so you can see there's a very high level of sophistication not only with the art effects

198
00:21:50,880 --> 00:21:56,400
but also with the construction of these mounds very geometric astronomically aligned and working

199
00:21:56,400 --> 00:22:03,280
with the natural earthenages and toloric currents even down in Florida we have many many

200
00:22:03,280 --> 00:22:12,000
accounts down here Amelia Island a very interesting one there's an account from 1914

201
00:22:13,200 --> 00:22:18,240
burial mount of giant raised whole secret thighs and skulls sent to the Smiths Sonium which is

202
00:22:18,240 --> 00:22:23,120
something we find a lot with these accounts professor J. H. Pratt of the Southland Seminary

203
00:22:23,120 --> 00:22:29,360
reports finding bones of a nine foot skeleton he describes and emphasises the extraordinary

204
00:22:29,360 --> 00:22:34,240
size of some of the skulls dug up he also worked for the University of North Carolina and wrote

205
00:22:34,240 --> 00:22:39,360
about the mineralogy of the state so this guy wasn't some random idiot kind of digging things

206
00:22:39,360 --> 00:22:46,320
he was a professor he was working a mineralogy and he was describing and measuring what he saw and

207
00:22:46,320 --> 00:22:51,200
to you know claims by skeptics claim they just make mistakes they can't measure things properly

208
00:22:51,200 --> 00:22:57,760
I believe gentlemen like this could measure things properly even in Texas we have various accounts

209
00:22:58,720 --> 00:23:07,120
from academics this is from 1940 in Victoria County year earlier a skull was on there that was

210
00:23:07,120 --> 00:23:13,200
to believe to be the largest skull in the world it was twice the size of a normal human cranium

211
00:23:13,760 --> 00:23:20,400
other human bones of large size were on a Marcus Ed S Goldstein the physical anthropologist

212
00:23:20,400 --> 00:23:27,040
anthropologist in charge of the find was formerly an a to Dr. Ailes Hadlitschka of the Smiths Sonium

213
00:23:27,120 --> 00:23:31,520
who will be talking about shortly so we're having a look here you know we're talking about twice

214
00:23:31,520 --> 00:23:36,240
the skull of a normal man we're looking at between 36 to 40 in circumference suddenly you can see

215
00:23:36,240 --> 00:23:41,840
they were even photographed so we're looking into this to see if these are still somewhere in the archive

216
00:23:41,840 --> 00:23:48,000
because if they are this is very good evidence of giants in North America we can also

217
00:23:48,000 --> 00:23:54,880
look at some of the eye facts that were found around North America he's Jim holding an axe head

218
00:23:54,960 --> 00:24:00,000
that was discovered or really you know acquired by a good friend Brock Smith who's based in

219
00:24:00,000 --> 00:24:06,000
Mississippi there's me with a smaller one this is 14 and a half pounds this one is 33 pounds

220
00:24:06,000 --> 00:24:12,240
and discovered in an Illinois mound not too far from Kahokia now if you were to wield one of these

221
00:24:12,240 --> 00:24:17,200
you would have to probably be eight foot tall just to even hold it and use it as an axe and these are

222
00:24:17,200 --> 00:24:22,640
not necessarily seven monogues when we inspected this we found markings on it and we created a video

223
00:24:22,960 --> 00:24:28,480
a very thorough investigation of video about this which you can watch on the mega Lithamania

224
00:24:28,480 --> 00:24:35,760
YouTube channel there are other accounts this one is again 33 pounds 10 ounces it was found in

225
00:24:35,760 --> 00:24:44,000
Kansas City Missouri reported the early 1900s but the double rows of teeth I mean that we we do have

226
00:24:44,000 --> 00:24:48,560
many more accounts of artifacts we feature in the book and in the video so you can watch if you want

227
00:24:48,560 --> 00:24:54,080
more details but the double rows of teeth is a phenomena we keep coming across in our research

228
00:24:54,080 --> 00:25:00,240
very bizarre case of either hypodontia or extra rows of teeth sometimes just extra teeth

229
00:25:00,240 --> 00:25:06,400
in Amelia Island Florida this is reported in the Smithsonian records a third row of teeth it was found

230
00:25:06,400 --> 00:25:11,680
in a seven foot tall skeleton before the skeleton crumbled to dust we have numerous accounts

231
00:25:11,680 --> 00:25:17,200
with an entire chapter devoted to the fact that many of the accounts we're talking from all

232
00:25:17,280 --> 00:25:22,800
across North America from New England all the way down to South California and Catalan

233
00:25:22,800 --> 00:25:28,720
or Island and so forth where these double rows of teeth and you can just see a couple of examples here

234
00:25:30,240 --> 00:25:34,880
double teeth in the front as well as in the back part of the jaw this is from Ohio

235
00:25:35,680 --> 00:25:40,960
in Minnesota the teeth will still sound and double all around and so on and so forth 8 foot

236
00:25:41,040 --> 00:25:48,000
skeleton with front as well as in the back of the mouth and in both the upper and lower jaws

237
00:25:48,000 --> 00:25:53,680
double teeth so and so on and so forth now skeptics have looked at this and claimed that this doesn't

238
00:25:53,680 --> 00:25:59,520
really you know just make sense it could be laparlins or the way people spoke at the time but

239
00:25:59,520 --> 00:26:04,880
there's too many accounts and some of them clearly discussed grime two rows of teeth in one jaw

240
00:26:04,880 --> 00:26:10,480
so we we feel it's a reality and we feel this is an act this is a kind of genetic throwback

241
00:26:10,560 --> 00:26:16,720
of the giants and we talked to dental anthropologist Sharabali New York University and she was

242
00:26:16,720 --> 00:26:20,240
astonished when we showed at these accounts when we were filming for their search for the lost

243
00:26:20,240 --> 00:26:26,560
giants TV show that came out on history channel and she had noted a few accounts of

244
00:26:26,560 --> 00:26:32,080
hybrid on to your extra teeth in skulls but not full double rows of teeth but we have accounts going

245
00:26:32,080 --> 00:26:37,760
back into the Bible and the early traditions in Middle East which talk about this as well

246
00:26:38,720 --> 00:26:44,480
other strange anomalies we have cranial deformation there is there are some accounts where there are baby

247
00:26:44,480 --> 00:26:50,080
skulls that are deformed these are from the chinook tribe and the flat head tribe was

248
00:26:50,080 --> 00:26:54,240
appropriate name this one is actually from Bolivia and they put them upon coups as you go missing

249
00:26:54,240 --> 00:27:00,080
got stolen this one but this is the tradition we find all over North America mainly in south

250
00:27:00,080 --> 00:27:06,320
and central America but also in North America and often associated with the giants like a tradition

251
00:27:06,400 --> 00:27:12,000
that was passed on from culture to culture one of my favorite subjects and James Leastfever is

252
00:27:12,000 --> 00:27:22,320
horn skulls this is apparently a photo from 1916 from Togo Point Pencilvania again there was

253
00:27:23,520 --> 00:27:28,880
some excavations done at a place called Sera and Pencilvania it was a mound there and this photo

254
00:27:28,880 --> 00:27:35,680
became associated with it in the early 70s even though the excavation was some like 50 or 80 years earlier

255
00:27:36,160 --> 00:27:41,200
but this is actually we believe is probably a fake it's under snoring this special museum

256
00:27:41,760 --> 00:27:46,720
which we spoke to the curator and he was unsure about it but we do have various accounts of horn

257
00:27:46,720 --> 00:27:52,400
skulls and it does happen it is a phenomenon that still happens and occasionally they're associated

258
00:27:52,400 --> 00:27:58,400
with giants Catalyen Islands are very interesting area all the channel islands of the coast of

259
00:27:58,400 --> 00:28:05,360
Southern California we have Catalyen here and all these islands really have some kind of

260
00:28:05,360 --> 00:28:12,240
giant accounts associated with them interestingly not only giant skeletons reported but even a

261
00:28:12,240 --> 00:28:19,760
stone circle was reported and evidence and descriptions of red red head and ruddy skinned

262
00:28:20,480 --> 00:28:27,840
Native Americans living on these islands there's even evidence of occupation going back 40,000 years

263
00:28:27,840 --> 00:28:33,040
and this is intriguing and this was researched by a very controversial amateur archaeologist called

264
00:28:33,120 --> 00:28:41,120
Ralph Glyden he eventually created this bizarre museum on Catalyen Island in the 1920s onwards

265
00:28:41,120 --> 00:28:49,360
but it was first really reported on in 1913 by Joe a German naturalist who started looking in

266
00:28:49,360 --> 00:28:56,160
to you know skeletons and other such things that were being found on the island and this is

267
00:28:56,240 --> 00:29:02,080
him here this is Dr. A. W. Firstman who reported on earth and an 8th ritual skeleton in 1930

268
00:29:02,080 --> 00:29:07,920
this was later worked on as we said by Ralph Glyden who eventually discovered on earth something like

269
00:29:07,920 --> 00:29:16,560
3,781 skeletons between 1919 and 1930 he was involved with the hay foundation of New York

270
00:29:16,560 --> 00:29:22,560
and he even claimed to have on earth and 9th ritual skeleton several measuring over 7 feet tall

271
00:29:22,640 --> 00:29:27,680
now Jim Viera, Bill Viera, when it will investigate this as part of the TV show and found

272
00:29:27,680 --> 00:29:33,840
more evidence of basically evidence to back up what he was saying and even evidence of bones

273
00:29:34,480 --> 00:29:39,680
on other islands that are suggesting they were indeed giants roaming this part of the world

274
00:29:40,960 --> 00:29:48,560
in March 2012 the medi curator John Baragina who was the curator of the the museum on the island

275
00:29:48,640 --> 00:29:52,560
found lost records this is what Jim and Bill were looking through to find more evidence and

276
00:29:52,560 --> 00:29:58,480
there's even evidence of cranial deformation which has been noted by researchers such as

277
00:29:58,480 --> 00:30:04,000
our good friend L.A. Mazzoli who came up with this graphic and he found that he looked at this photo

278
00:30:04,000 --> 00:30:10,400
did some analysis on it and believes he's found a giant who could be 8 foot 6 inches tall this

279
00:30:10,400 --> 00:30:17,280
one laying here when all the measurements were worked down. Even on San Nicolas Island

280
00:30:18,000 --> 00:30:24,720
one of the other islands of the channel islands we have various various accounts this one is

281
00:30:24,720 --> 00:30:30,800
actually from Mr Longfellow which is an appropriate name and he describes giant jaw bones

282
00:30:31,600 --> 00:30:39,040
very large skeletons and some were almost giants so we have this going on here on the different

283
00:30:39,040 --> 00:30:45,680
islands we even have double rows of teeth mentioned on other islands here and this is reported

284
00:30:45,760 --> 00:30:52,800
by the scientific American and so all the other islands get mentioned here that there's stuff going

285
00:30:52,800 --> 00:30:57,920
on and it's very very intriguing and it's not really being researched it's not be followed up

286
00:30:57,920 --> 00:31:03,360
it's not been put out there probably but when you have the scientific American revealing

287
00:31:03,360 --> 00:31:11,360
giants with double rows of teeth it is really quite astonishing so this is a little bit later this is

288
00:31:11,440 --> 00:31:22,240
from from Santa Barbara from 1959 and they believe these doubt date to 177 177 years old

289
00:31:22,800 --> 00:31:28,560
this is an Indian cemetery they call it on Santa Rosa Island but the carbon dating is

290
00:31:28,560 --> 00:31:34,080
created some very very interesting ideas about what was going on here it was developed and worked on

291
00:31:34,160 --> 00:31:40,880
by Phil Or, of the Santa Barbara Museum of Natural History and over 13 years of work

292
00:31:41,920 --> 00:31:45,680
he discovered some skeletons these were some of the ones in fold one of them was called

293
00:31:45,680 --> 00:31:52,000
Arlington Spring Skeleton which was they believed it was a male then a female then a male etc

294
00:31:52,000 --> 00:31:57,680
but the interesting thing is it was 13,000 years old and so we're finding extremely ancient

295
00:31:57,760 --> 00:32:03,840
evidence on these islands pushing the history of North America back and linking it with very early

296
00:32:03,840 --> 00:32:11,440
accounts of giants this mythonian were inevitably involved in many of these accounts and they

297
00:32:11,440 --> 00:32:15,920
what some people say they were actually responsible for disappearing many of these bones

298
00:32:17,280 --> 00:32:20,960
it's a remarkable story which we which we feature in the book we're not going to go into in

299
00:32:20,960 --> 00:32:25,360
too much detail and they're but I've been to the mythonian I went there in 2012 to investigate

300
00:32:25,360 --> 00:32:31,520
but many of the accounts we came across I mean literally hundreds of them I believe were based

301
00:32:31,520 --> 00:32:36,080
upon the fact that the Smithsonian were going collect skeletons when they were discovered by individuals

302
00:32:36,080 --> 00:32:40,960
on their land or they were sent to the Smithsonian for them to investigate and put in their archives

303
00:32:40,960 --> 00:32:45,440
but when the Smithsonian were then asked well where were the bones they were we don't know anything

304
00:32:45,440 --> 00:32:51,840
about that and they would all be disappeared and obviously this was the main academic institution

305
00:32:51,920 --> 00:32:58,560
of North America at the time so it's unfortunate that they are involved in the disappearing of such

306
00:32:58,560 --> 00:33:08,960
bones but actual accounts there were actually several accounts in the fifth and 12th annual report

307
00:33:08,960 --> 00:33:14,800
of the Smithsonian which came out in the late 1800s we acquired copies and we searched through them

308
00:33:15,760 --> 00:33:23,040
and we found 17 accounts between seven and eight foot tall skeletons unearthed excavated

309
00:33:23,040 --> 00:33:29,520
measured and reported by Smithsonian scientists and then by 1910 they were trying to claim it never

310
00:33:29,520 --> 00:33:36,080
happened and so we have a real issue here we have numerous other accounts of very tall and non-measured

311
00:33:36,080 --> 00:33:40,880
skeletons and bones as well we have an ever counts of double rows and triple rows of teeth

312
00:33:41,840 --> 00:33:51,920
based upon the discoveries in Florida one example was Anna Union County, Illinois in 1873 and this

313
00:33:51,920 --> 00:33:57,280
was quoted by T.M. Perrin we featured in our anatomic anomalies chapter and talking about a

314
00:33:57,280 --> 00:34:01,680
giant skull the skull was very large but fell to pieces on being exposed to the air one skull was

315
00:34:01,680 --> 00:34:07,520
found that would have measured 36 inches into conference which is twice almost twice the

316
00:34:07,600 --> 00:34:16,960
conference of a normal human skull and this area here is where many of these accounts were reported

317
00:34:16,960 --> 00:34:24,800
from so we have a 30 inch conference skull it's just a graphic we put together for the TV show

318
00:34:26,080 --> 00:34:31,680
but many others were found not just this one we feature this we actually have a giant skull section

319
00:34:31,680 --> 00:34:36,480
in that chapter just to give you an example they got up to 40 inch conference and one of them was

320
00:34:36,560 --> 00:34:43,360
even found by a good friend Ayaz Hedleachka this is actually the account from an actually another

321
00:34:43,360 --> 00:34:49,680
station of the excavation on Amelia Island which again reported by the Smith Sonion and not only

322
00:34:49,680 --> 00:34:56,240
described double rows of teeth but it described a third row of teeth from a skeleton that was over

323
00:34:56,240 --> 00:35:05,360
seven feet tall we have the B. Hive Stone Mounds which reported in 1899 and Passen North Carolina

324
00:35:05,920 --> 00:35:12,080
this featured in the Smith Sonion accounts again it was over seven foot tall skeleton was found

325
00:35:12,080 --> 00:35:20,400
within this man which had stone constructions within it which is quite unusual in 1910 skull given

326
00:35:20,400 --> 00:35:26,800
museum archaeologist percent Indian relic to Smith Sonion I sat a captain Newton H. Chitondon who is a

327
00:35:26,800 --> 00:35:33,600
famous ethnologist archaeologist and explorer who was really also a thief of Indian skulls from

328
00:35:33,680 --> 00:35:41,680
Graviards he spent 20 years devoted to his research focused on accuracy in history and he was one of

329
00:35:41,680 --> 00:35:46,880
the first people to explore the Queen's Charlotte Islands and one of the when he was there one of the

330
00:35:46,880 --> 00:35:56,000
things he did was actually acquire or steal a skull from from a local Indian Graviard and it was a

331
00:35:56,000 --> 00:36:01,200
great interest to European anthropologists to examine it it was a long treasured it was a priceless

332
00:36:02,160 --> 00:36:07,120
and there's also stories of him uncovering another eight foot giant in West Berkeley, California

333
00:36:07,760 --> 00:36:14,720
and he believed this skull was so large that eventually he got taken by the Smith Sonion never

334
00:36:14,720 --> 00:36:20,560
to be seen again and it was actually reported in an ascension card which we feature in the book

335
00:36:21,120 --> 00:36:27,520
we have giant axes again this is from Charleston West Virginia and this is Professor P. W. Norris of the

336
00:36:27,600 --> 00:36:34,880
Smith Sonion who describes an African seven for eight in skeleton and then the giant axes reported later

337
00:36:35,920 --> 00:36:41,280
but the problem with the Smith Sonion and what their agendas is that there was there was

338
00:36:41,280 --> 00:36:47,520
issues there was agendas there was changes going on in the way we saw the world science was emerging

339
00:36:47,520 --> 00:36:54,800
there was the evolution theory was coming forth there was manifest destiny this amazing you know

340
00:36:54,880 --> 00:36:59,840
the amazing white man taken over the savages land and things like this and all these combined

341
00:36:59,840 --> 00:37:05,680
to create this kind of almost like a racist agenda to destroy and remove the Native Americans from

342
00:37:05,680 --> 00:37:11,760
their land and so when they kept finding these giant skulls these immense powerful skeletons

343
00:37:11,760 --> 00:37:17,120
this sophisticated technologies astronomical and geometrically aligned mounds it didn't fit

344
00:37:17,120 --> 00:37:22,000
with the theories they were pushing forward and this is summarized by the brilliant Jay Edgar

345
00:37:22,000 --> 00:37:29,760
Smooth of written a book about these issues in North America at the time this guy in 1910

346
00:37:29,760 --> 00:37:37,680
Altsford Leecher we probably probably the worst person we could imagine taking over an academic

347
00:37:37,680 --> 00:37:44,080
historical institution he became the curator of the vision of physical anthropology he was involved

348
00:37:44,080 --> 00:37:50,720
in the eugenics movement a pre-Nazi philosophy founded by the rocker rocker fella Federation foundation

349
00:37:51,200 --> 00:37:59,120
and he kind of wanted to remove the idea that giants existed in 1934 the Berkeley because

350
00:37:59,120 --> 00:38:04,560
that he announced giants and they more began to get the class head leecher and he believed they were all

351
00:38:04,560 --> 00:38:08,800
you know people weren't measuring things properly they didn't know what they were doing when they

352
00:38:08,800 --> 00:38:13,600
were finding them they were mismeasuring the skeletons and sort of expanded under the weight of the earth

353
00:38:13,920 --> 00:38:21,440
things like this but the problem is giants kept being found even after he announced this

354
00:38:22,160 --> 00:38:28,880
and this is from this is an example from 1936 but they really just kept coming back to haunt him this is

355
00:38:29,760 --> 00:38:36,960
this is Dr Preston Holder and he was doing some reports in Georgia and he couldn't believe it

356
00:38:37,040 --> 00:38:45,440
then we were finding 78 foot tall giants and even the Smithsonian sponsored the work of Dr

357
00:38:45,440 --> 00:38:51,520
Preston Holder and Dr F. Seltser at the United States National Museum was dispatched to the scene

358
00:38:51,520 --> 00:38:57,760
and another that Altshead Leecher examined some of the first skulls on earth and they were described

359
00:38:57,760 --> 00:39:05,280
as Sterny and Brony in describe in the messiveness of this skeletal structure the problem was

360
00:39:05,360 --> 00:39:10,000
this kind of got closed down pretty quickly and that was the end of that story we also have

361
00:39:10,000 --> 00:39:17,520
an again in 1936 again had Leecher was involved in this discovery of 36 in succum for a skull

362
00:39:18,240 --> 00:39:24,080
I believe it's 36 it doesn't give the exact succum for it but it a very very large skull found

363
00:39:24,080 --> 00:39:29,440
on the illusion islands of Alaska and it even talks about you see even actually officially on

364
00:39:29,440 --> 00:39:34,960
one of the Ascension cards of the Smithsonian remarks mail add out a very large capacity around

365
00:39:34,960 --> 00:39:44,400
2000 cc so the 12th annual report is probably the Mecca for giant hologists numerous accounts

366
00:39:44,400 --> 00:39:50,640
in here between 7 and 8 feet tall too many to mention in this brief lecture but we go into details

367
00:39:50,640 --> 00:39:55,840
in the book and you can actually buy these actual books yourself if you want to check out the original

368
00:39:56,400 --> 00:40:02,880
sources we also have this a can these handwritten notes or professor P. W. Norris of the Smithsonian

369
00:40:03,680 --> 00:40:11,360
who was doing some research in the great Smith mound in West Virginia and amazingly he made

370
00:40:11,360 --> 00:40:16,400
handwritten notes and if you read these carefully we write that we typed them all out in the book

371
00:40:16,400 --> 00:40:20,800
they described giant skeletons and giant skulls and bones and teeth and other such things

372
00:40:20,800 --> 00:40:25,600
and he was just making his notes as excavations would be in May so to have these handwritten notes

373
00:40:25,680 --> 00:40:33,440
very very important and give a clue into what was really being discovered back in ancient North America

374
00:40:33,440 --> 00:40:38,640
again we have more session cards of the Smithsonian dimensions giant I think that says it all really

375
00:40:41,280 --> 00:40:49,200
and we have numerous academics that are featured in these books not that one um that's

376
00:40:49,280 --> 00:40:54,800
talk about skeletal finds we have you know we have Dr. Walter B. Jones 7 foot 6

377
00:40:54,800 --> 00:41:00,320
forest climates head of anthropology Oklahoma dr. A. K. K. Zove came with University of 7 foot 5

378
00:41:00,320 --> 00:41:06,880
in skeleton found a pits boat byron Cummings who is involved in the discoveries in Sonora and

379
00:41:06,880 --> 00:41:12,320
other places Thomas Wilson of the Smith Zone 8 foot skeleton with massive jaw bone and so on

380
00:41:12,320 --> 00:41:17,920
and so forth so we're finding that these very important academics these doctors these professors

381
00:41:18,000 --> 00:41:24,160
were involved in the discoveries of these accounts these giant bones and skeletons but one of the

382
00:41:24,160 --> 00:41:31,040
areas that are personally become fascinated with and being researching I've travelled here a couple

383
00:41:31,040 --> 00:41:36,880
of a few months ago and we're going back there this year is the area around Nevada specifically

384
00:41:36,880 --> 00:41:42,640
love lock cave and win a muck a lake and so forth very interesting story is associated with this

385
00:41:43,360 --> 00:41:50,880
lots of myths very early date talk about this race of redhead cannibals called the Saiti

386
00:41:50,880 --> 00:41:57,360
car or thigh or tool eaters who used to harass the local pioid Indians in the area this was

387
00:41:57,360 --> 00:42:02,480
talking about spoken about written about by Sarah Winner muck a Hopkins and a father who was a

388
00:42:02,480 --> 00:42:09,840
chief of the different tribes in the area one of the earliest accounts of actual discoveries

389
00:42:09,840 --> 00:42:15,200
was discovery of an over 11 foot giant found in the Winner muck area where come on to win a muck

390
00:42:15,200 --> 00:42:19,520
as soon but it's believed the whole area was called uh winner muck it around winner muck a lake at

391
00:42:19,520 --> 00:42:25,760
that time 1911 almost seven foot skeletons were also on earth when the caves were being dug

392
00:42:25,760 --> 00:42:31,440
for guano this is me sitting at the entrance to the famous love lock cave where many of these

393
00:42:31,440 --> 00:42:38,240
accounts stemmed from now the myths and the legends and the stories written by the pioids you know

394
00:42:38,240 --> 00:42:43,600
Sarah Winner muck Hopkins came out in the late 1800s but it wasn't until 1911 that this cave was

395
00:42:43,600 --> 00:42:48,240
properly investigated because they were looking for back guano but when they started digging on this

396
00:42:48,240 --> 00:42:53,360
back guano which over then sell they kept finding all these artifacts and eventually found something

397
00:42:53,360 --> 00:43:01,120
like 10 thousand artifacts in this particular cave next to this dry lake bed this just a zoom out

398
00:43:01,120 --> 00:43:05,680
I took with the drone when I was up there and you know no one visits here I mean I was there

399
00:43:05,680 --> 00:43:11,360
on my own for like four or five hours so it's it's a very very strange interesting place to visit

400
00:43:12,480 --> 00:43:18,880
here are some accounts of some of the so-called skulls that were found and um one of the stories

401
00:43:18,880 --> 00:43:24,240
which is really intriguing to me is that they got so tired of these red-haired cannibals and

402
00:43:24,240 --> 00:43:29,120
who were potentially giants harassing them they they chased them into the love lock cave

403
00:43:29,120 --> 00:43:33,520
burnt them out and sort of fired arrows at them as they tried to escape so skeletons were

404
00:43:33,600 --> 00:43:38,640
being found in the love lock cave hundreds of thousands of years later in the early 1900s and

405
00:43:38,640 --> 00:43:46,480
this is where giant skeletons giant um read kind of slippers or boots were made or were discovered

406
00:43:46,480 --> 00:43:52,000
they also uh the giant cannibals used to actually make uh very interesting duck decoys which

407
00:43:52,000 --> 00:43:56,720
they would use on the lake which was at the base of the cave but one of the interesting discoveries

408
00:43:56,720 --> 00:44:02,160
that I made was actually on display in one of the major museums in Nevada where they they have

409
00:44:02,240 --> 00:44:08,080
some of the there's been stories about 15 inch sandals that were that were worn by the so-called

410
00:44:08,080 --> 00:44:13,360
giants of this area and when I went to this museum I couldn't believe it there's actually evidence

411
00:44:13,360 --> 00:44:16,160
this one was found on Winner Market this one was found in the love lock cave these were about

412
00:44:16,160 --> 00:44:24,080
size 10 this one here is a whole different thing this is something like 17 inches long so this would have

413
00:44:24,080 --> 00:44:30,720
been a size 29 apparently this is the size that they gave in the information board here so that would

414
00:44:30,800 --> 00:44:36,160
have been someone around nine or ten feet tall at least and so this to me is one of the

415
00:44:36,160 --> 00:44:43,120
smoking gun pieces of evidence of giants really existing in this area again we have giant

416
00:44:43,120 --> 00:44:49,840
pestle and mortars um which are just hugely oversized and the whole landscape itself is very very

417
00:44:49,840 --> 00:44:55,760
interesting there's a very interesting story as well that the fallen fraternal society acquired

418
00:44:55,760 --> 00:45:00,560
one of the giant mummies and we must remember some of these giants that were found were mummified

419
00:45:00,720 --> 00:45:05,920
so whether this was a process they used whether they just dried out in the dry heat there

420
00:45:05,920 --> 00:45:12,000
we're not too sure but this actually went to this area because uh and knocked on their door to

421
00:45:12,000 --> 00:45:18,160
find out some information because the story goes that they acquired a very tall giant skeleton

422
00:45:18,160 --> 00:45:24,000
or mummy they boiled it down to have the bones they were on display and used in rituals by

423
00:45:24,000 --> 00:45:28,800
these particular people unfortunately no one was there when I went there but I guarantee I'm sure

424
00:45:28,880 --> 00:45:34,320
they've got something on display that could prove once and for all something was going on

425
00:45:34,320 --> 00:45:40,720
here's a photo of uh the winner mucker petroglyphs these are uh around the area of winner mucker

426
00:45:40,720 --> 00:45:46,560
lake north of love lock and these are giant petroglyphs carved into solid two for rock there's hundreds

427
00:45:46,560 --> 00:45:52,960
of these all around this whole um this whole area here and the thing about these is that not only

428
00:45:53,040 --> 00:46:01,280
a giant sized but they're 14,800 years old potentially there's a date range between

429
00:46:01,280 --> 00:46:07,840
something like 10,800 and 14,800 years old and if that's the case is the oldest petroglyphs in North America

430
00:46:07,840 --> 00:46:12,960
some of the oldest in the world thing is they're huge they're very high up and they're thought to

431
00:46:12,960 --> 00:46:18,720
be built or carved by giants now there's some research bumped done by JJ Aintworth

432
00:46:18,800 --> 00:46:23,840
who's compared some of the carvings here to sites in island around the buoyant valley area

433
00:46:23,840 --> 00:46:28,320
which absolutely fascinated me when it went once he showed me this because there were almost

434
00:46:28,320 --> 00:46:34,800
identical carvings between an area in island which is known for the fomorian and furball giants

435
00:46:34,800 --> 00:46:41,680
and an area in uh North America which is known for the giant redhead cannibals very similar

436
00:46:41,680 --> 00:46:48,480
descriptions of the giants who are existing in these areas but also are the same types of carvings

437
00:46:48,560 --> 00:46:56,560
and even when I was there uh in the landscape there I managed to something very strange I discovered

438
00:46:56,560 --> 00:47:05,520
with my drone this incredibly bizarre um almost like a geoglyph like a multiple concentric spiraling stone

439
00:47:05,520 --> 00:47:11,520
circles coming out from the center within the landscape just at the base of the Winner Mucker

440
00:47:11,520 --> 00:47:16,800
petroglyphs which I'd never found never seen report it anywhere before no idea what these are

441
00:47:17,120 --> 00:47:22,320
I'm going to investigate these when I head back there later this year we also this area is also

442
00:47:22,320 --> 00:47:29,600
pyramid lake and so we know that there's stories and legends of giants roaming this particular area

443
00:47:30,080 --> 00:47:37,440
and this is actually uh called the the Great Great Mother and this is the stone pyramid which is

444
00:47:37,440 --> 00:47:43,280
the natural formation but all around this area we have super ancient discoveries of human beings

445
00:47:43,360 --> 00:47:49,600
existing and this this is the time really that the megafauna were existing in this part of the world

446
00:47:49,600 --> 00:47:56,000
and the reason this is important is because we know that they were existing at the same time

447
00:47:56,000 --> 00:48:01,840
there's legends and there's stories and there's even now skeletal remains which match that era

448
00:48:01,840 --> 00:48:08,880
talking about these giants over 12 thousand years ago there are various accounts that were put

449
00:48:08,960 --> 00:48:15,520
together by vindaloria junia he collected these oral histories and stories all over North America

450
00:48:16,080 --> 00:48:23,280
describing what was going on here and one of the things he kept coming across was this idea that a

451
00:48:23,280 --> 00:48:27,840
great cataclysm would take in place like the younger dryness which is now thought he's thought to be

452
00:48:27,840 --> 00:48:33,200
wiped out or just you know certainly shrunk the megafauna over generations and also at that time

453
00:48:33,280 --> 00:48:39,440
shrunk some of the human beings but but still before that time giants were co-existed and this

454
00:48:39,440 --> 00:48:46,480
story is about giant beavers battling giant humans there's one story about certain individuals or

455
00:48:46,480 --> 00:48:51,520
giants herding mammoths like we heard catarmy feature these all in the book in the legends of the

456
00:48:51,520 --> 00:48:57,840
tall ones chapter and I think I find this personally I find this particularly fascinating because

457
00:48:58,000 --> 00:49:04,800
the origins of the giants in North America is quite an astonishing story in its own right

458
00:49:05,840 --> 00:49:11,360
and in the next lecture I'm going to go into the origin stories of these particular giants because

459
00:49:12,000 --> 00:49:16,960
more research has been done with DNA linking especially around the area the great lakes and

460
00:49:16,960 --> 00:49:23,520
head and south from there that there's evidence linking it with the denyssavans of Siberia we also have

461
00:49:23,600 --> 00:49:29,280
chromagonum man who appeared to be in North America at a very early date and we have evidence coming

462
00:49:29,280 --> 00:49:35,760
up from the south as well suggesting extremely early migrations moving around in and out of the

463
00:49:35,760 --> 00:49:42,640
American continent which could give some indication of where these giant genes originally came from so

464
00:49:42,640 --> 00:49:48,880
whether it's the chromagonum home or hide of a genesis who are existing in South Africa and Europe

465
00:49:48,960 --> 00:49:54,960
over 100,000 years ago the denyssavans from 40 plus thousand years ago in Siberia there seems to be a

466
00:49:54,960 --> 00:50:03,120
very interesting story starting to emerge about the origins of the tall ones in native North America

467
00:50:04,000 --> 00:50:10,240
but you can't take it all too seriously we are talking about giants after all but in another lecture

468
00:50:10,240 --> 00:50:15,520
I'm doing this series I'm going to go into the global story of the ancient giants and look at the

469
00:50:15,600 --> 00:50:23,040
denyssavans and look at the true origins of where the giant people of North America really came from so

470
00:50:23,040 --> 00:50:24,560
thank you very much for listening
