It's easy to imagine a version of ourselves that's gargantuan,
magical, a hero that often plays the villain, a giant among the
ordinary. Legends of giants doing as they please have been with
us since the beginning and continue to fascinate us in cinema and
sport. The idea of a giant is easy to entertain because either
through genetics or rare disorders, extra-large humans have
naturally lived throughout our existence. The idea that's not
easy for the modern person to imagine, aside from a singular
Goliath-like demigod here n' there, is the possibility of a race
of giants having once existed, tribes of superhumans whose feats
and physicality filled us with fear and wonder in antiquity. Yet
with these tall tales being so pervasive worldwide, could it be
that communities of giants were real or was it merely that the
occasional taller than average human became the inspiration for
myth? Join us tonight as we explore the mystery of legendary
giants.
