Pretty freaky.
Uh huh. Reputable citation please. Are you aware that the tallest human on record was Robert Wadlow, at 8'11" tall, and he had to wear leg braces and use canes to help support his weight. Back to the square-cubed math, please.

It's freaky, all right. Quite a bit too freaky, IMO.

Don't these old giant Nephilim chappies present rather a problem for your global flood myth? I mean, in Genesis 6:1-4 we are told:

"The Nephilim were on the earth in those days, and also afterward, when the sons of God came in to the daughters of men, and they bore children to them. These were the mighty men that were of old, the men of renown."

Then inGenesis 7:21-23 we read:

"And all flesh died that moved upon the earth, both of fowl, and of cattle, and of beast, and of every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth, and every man: All in whose nostrils was the breath of life, of all that was in the dry land, died. And every living substance was destroyed which was upon the face of the ground, both man, and cattle, and the creeping things, and the fowl of the heaven; and they were destroyed from the earth: and Noah only remained alive, and they that were with him in the ark."

But what's this!! InNum.13:33 we have:

"And there we saw the Nephilim (the sons of Anak, who come from the Nephilim); and we seemed to ourselves like grasshoppers, and so we seemed to them."

If we are to believe what is presented in the 'infallible word of God, these giant Nephilim were around before and after the flood. So my question would be, how could these chaps have survived a global flood that is alleged to have killed all but Noah and his gang?

Once I was abducted by aliens. They took me to their home planet by Zeta Reticuli and we played poker all night. I won a million troggles (that's their money, you see). Unfortunately when I got back I couldn't find a bank that would do a currency exchange, so I still had to come to work the next monday. Oh.. and I am 12 feet tall too.

Your links prove nothing Enow. Some of them are even nothing more than pseudoscience. Case in point, the 'Forbidden Archaeology.' They claim that evidence is being suppressed in order to keep the current claim. This is a classic claim of pseudo science. This thread reminds me of what creationists started spouting when the fossils of australopithecus ramidus was discovered. They get the weird idea that that some how disproves evolution. Similarly, your supposed 'giant' human fossils don't do anything to disprove evolution.

NASA Finds Shrimp Beneath Antarctica Ice - CBS News

Upon finding this, I have made a mistake that I cannot believe I had made. I know that I am hard of hearing and all that: deaf in my left ear and tinnitus in my right ear, but my recollection was that it was a two foot shrimp, but this site says it was three inches.

I have no idea how wrong my recollection was on that but I apologize.

That's what I would say too, but that is how the evolutionists spun their story here for the New York Times.

Better yet... show pictures!! Think you can get any to post here in the thread?

Maybe you can make a video or ask those university people to put their discovery on YouTube? Then you can link that from this thread for everybody to watch.
