Dude, those bones were an entry in a Photoshop contest.
http://urbanlegends.about.com/gi/dynamic/offsite.htm?site=http://www.worth1000.com/cache/contest/contestcache.asp%3Fcontest%5Fid=447%26display=photoshop
And here's a site showing the email that got passed around along with text showing it was a hoax.
http://urbanlegends.about.com/library/bl_giant_skeleton.htm
Also, if you know anything about physics, if you double the size of an object, it's mass goes up by 4 times.
So if there were a giant human twice the size of a normal human, it would weigh 4 times as much as a regular one. But the pictures I've seen show all these so called "giants" with similar bone structures as we do. This is impossible because the bones would not be able to support such a huge difference in weight.
This is why elephants have such giant bones, and why it is impossible for insects to grow like they did in those 50's horror movies.
Do a little more research next time. Science doesn't work by hiding things from the public. That is the job of the government, and religion.
It's sad, really. That the only "proof" of the Bible you can come up with is a Photoshopped picture.

How old are you????? Look man, I got totally fascinated with the whole giant thing, but like the bible none of that shyt can be proven. In every story that you see about the giants people say they say enormous coffins or giant skulls, but they always dissapear. Must be some sort of conspiracy from the government right? Wrong! Just hoaxes. Like when scientists thought they found the skeletal remains of a mermaid when it was just an elaborate hoax. Also, if the earth is only 6000 years old how is it that dinasaurs existed.
How do you not know that the bible meant giant people and not giant dinasaurs. Stop being so gullible. Use your head. Ask questions. Just because the bible said so doesn't mean that it is so.
oh yeah...I don't agree

In a raging global flood, we would predict that we would find fossils indiscriminantly. Meaning a sauropod might be found next to an elephant since they exploited similar ecosystems. Or humans remains might be found with any of a million extinct creatures. But they're not. Always and everywhere, fossils are found in the same stratigraphic succession. The fossil record strongly supports the view that the earth is old and that organisms on the earth have changed with time.
If dinosaurs lived only a few thousand years ago, wouldn't we find their bones with the bones of some of these other large land mammals? I would think so. Do we? Absolutely not! We have evidence that man and mammoths lived together since we find mammoth bones at ancient human sites. Do we ever find dinosaur bones at ancient human sites? Never! All creationists would have to do is uncover one prehistoric human site with dinosaur bones. One site with dinosaur and Tertiary or Pleistocene mammal bones. Just one!
Finally, if humans and dinosaurs lived together, wouldn't you expect to have heard more about them? After all, dinosaurs weren't even recognized until the mid 19th century. Dinosaurs were fearsome and dangerous creatures. We would expect all sorts of stories and cave drawings and carvings if they lived the same time we did. Wouldn't there be stories of men eaten by T. rex? Carvings or cave drawings of huge sauropods? Legends of dinosaur hunts?
So no, I don't agree.

Yes, many ancient civilizations thought there were giant human fossils. In all cases these have turned out to be misidentified animal fossils.
There is far more evidence that they have found the tomb of Jesus than there is that there was a worldwide flood. In fact, there is abundant evidence that there was never a worldwide flood, only local floods that inspired the legend including written histories from civilizations that existed before, during, and after the magical flood.

I did the search you suggested and found absolutely nothing. But of course, considering that you believe the earth is 6,000 years old, you probably believe that someone has film footage of creation and the flood.

Well, if it's on the internet, it HAS to be true. Ah-yup.
Those scientist types really get my goat, always out there denying the Truth of the Internet, keeping these things hidden from the public by puttin' 'em up on the internet. Buncha heathens, if you ask me.

I don't know whether to laugh or cry..... Are you serious about this? Science has no credibility with you? How would you write a message on an internet site for people all over the world to try and answer, if it weren't for science?

Funny, I did the exact search you suggested (google: giant human fossils) and the only sites I found were creationist sites.
Considering how many of those sites have been proven to have false information or outright lies, this is an intolerable bias.
How about you do the search and post a reputable link to them?

If you really don't believe in science then would you be willing to forego:
1. Any modern medical treatment?
2. The use of modern technology?
Are you willing to put your money where your mouth is or do you like science when it does something nice for you and hate it when you don't like what it has to say?
