When in heaven, Satan was turning good angels into demons (his followers). The demons formed human bodies for themselves and came down to earth. The Bible says that this happened because the demons saw pretty women on earth and wanted to be with them. They came down to earth and married these women. When the women bore babies, they grew to be very big, hence, GIANTS. They were corrupted and very bad when they grew up.
Read this passage in the Bible, it talks about the giants. I don't wanna paste it here, it's big.
Genesis 6:1-8
And also this:
Jude 6 And the angels that did not keep their original position but forsook their own proper dwelling place he has reserved with eternal bonds under dense darkness for the judgment of the great day.

The Nephilim, could have been a cross breed of Angel and Human, but it seems probably just a type of Angel Ie; there are Arch Angels or Cherubim Angels. I think maybe Nephilim could have been a type of Angel, maybe one of those cast down with Satan?
Here is the account of it in the Bible, read and see what your opinion is.
Genesis 6
The Flood
1 When men began to increase in number on the earth and daughters were born to them, 2 the sons of God saw that the daughters of men were beautiful, and they married any of them they chose. 3 Then the LORD said, "My Spirit will not contend with [a] man forever, for he is mortal [b] ; his days will be a hundred and twenty years."
4 The Nephilim were on the earth in those days—and also afterward—when the sons of God went to the daughters of men and had children by them. They were the heroes of old, men of renown.
5 The LORD saw how great man's wickedness on the earth had become, and that every inclination of the thoughts of his heart was only evil all the time. 6 The LORD was grieved that he had made man on the earth, and his heart was filled with pain. 7 So the LORD said, "I will wipe mankind, whom I have created, from the face of the earth—men and animals, and creatures that move along the ground, and birds of the air—for I am grieved that I have made them." 8 But Noah found favor in the eyes of the LORD.

When the Israelites were delivered from Egypt by God and Moses, and crossed the Red sea, God delivered them though the desert to the land of the Canaanites, who were a breed of very large people (not part angel, just regular humans that were big, like some areas have generally smaller people, such as Asia).

The most well known giant in the bible is Goliath. He was a Philistine and was roughly 10 feet tall (six cubits and a span).
1 Samuel 17 tells the story of David and Goliath.

In Genesis 6:4, it says; 'in those days and, and also after that', when the Nephilim were in the earth.
When the flood came, the sons of God, who are now demons, dematerialized their bodies to survive the flood, and it may be possible that the Nephilim also had power to escape the flood somehow. Since they are not on earth today, if they escaped the flood, they died off.
Apparently demons are not allowed to procreate with humans since that time. (There are no Nephilim today, that is the proof)
The demons are very much active in the earth however, promoting every act of disobedience imaginable. (Eph.2:2) They will soon be confined to the Abyss/prison away from the earth, for 1,000 years. (Rev. 20:1-3,7.)

They referred to the Anunnaki as told about on the Sumerian tablets found in the 1700s. They were in that region mining gold. That's where the garden of eden myth comes from.
Now who were they? Ponder on the fact humans will figure out time travel in the future and go from there.

Perhaps the San Francisco Giants. They are in the NL West (I think) and play major league baseball at Pac Bell, no, SBC, no wait, now it's AT&T Park.
FYI it's truly a great place to catch an afternoon game, as it is right on SF Bay.

In the Torah and several non-canonical Jewish and early Christian writings, nephilim (in Hebrew ×× Ö¼×¤××× means the fallen [ones]) are a people created by the crossbreeding of the "sons of God" (beney ha'elohim, ×× × ××××××) and the "daughters of men". (See Genesis 6:1.) The word nephilim is loosely translated as giants or titans in some translations of the Bible, and is left as nephilim in others.
When man began to multiply on the face of the land and daughters were born to them, the sons of God saw that the daughters of man were attractive. And they took as their wives any they chose. Then the LORD said, "My Spirit shall not abide in man forever, for he is flesh: his days shall be 120 years." The Nephilim were on the earth in those days, and also afterward, when the sons of God came in to the daughters of man and they bore children to them. These were the mighty men who were of old, the men of renown. (Genesis 6:1-4, English Standard Version)
The phrase "sons of God" is sometimes translated into English as "sons of gods". The Hebrew word, "Elohim", is a plural form, but is often used with single verbs and adjectives (as in this case) when the single meaning refers to the "Godhead."

They were men and women, but because of sin there happened alot of changes in nature that were not there before, like animals becoming carnivores and thorns on plants and other such changes in mutations caused by sin. Giants were one of such changes that took place during creation. Just like how men and women use to live long in those days and now we can hardly pass a hundred years.
