TLDRThe script explores legends and evidence of an ancient race of giants that once inhabited North America. It discusses Native American tales of brutal giant tribes that were eventually defeated. In the late 1800s, reports emerged of giant skeletons being unearthed across the country, some sent to the Smithsonian Institution and never seen again. The script delves into the possible cover-up and censorship around the discoveries, including the influence of isolationism vs diffusionism in archaeological theory. It makes connections to the Anunnaki giants of Sumerian texts and the great flood myths. Overall, it presents a fascinating theory of hidden history and suppressed archaeological evidence in America.

Takeaways
  • ๐Ÿ˜ฒ The script discusses legends and evidence of a race of giants that lived in North America in the distant past.
  • ๐Ÿ˜ฎ Thousands of giant skeletons and artifacts have allegedly been found across the U.S. over the past 200 years.
  • ๐Ÿค” Many of these discoveries were sent to the Smithsonian Institution, but the bones seem to have vanished.
  • ๐Ÿง There are claims that the Smithsonian actively suppresses evidence that goes against the isolationist view of early American cultures.
  • ๐Ÿ˜  Mainstream science says giant humans could not exist due to biological constraints like the square cube law.
  • ๐Ÿคจ But some skeletons found had anomalously thick and robust bones that may have supported great size.
  • ๐ŸŒŽ Evidence suggests ancient contact between Native Americans and cultures across the oceans, like the Polynesians.
  • ๐Ÿฅ” Things like sweet potatoes and chicken DNA suggest transoceanic contact before Columbus.
  • ๐Ÿ˜’ The media uses tactics like criticism, marginalization and censorship to suppress alternate theories.
  • ๐Ÿคซ More discoveries that challenge the mainstream timeline will likely emerge, but will face suppression.
Q & A
  • What legend did John T. Reed hear about in 1886 regarding giants?

    -John T. Reed heard about the Paiute legend of the Si-Te-Cah, a race of red-haired giants who were eventually defeated by the Paiute and other tribes and driven into a cave which was set on fire.

  • What evidence was found in Lovelock Cave to support the Paiute legend?

    -Evidence found in Lovelock Cave included giant handprints and skeletons over 8 feet tall, as well as thousands of artifacts. Some bones showed the marrow had been removed, suggesting possible cannibalism.

  • What law prevents the Smithsonian from having to return Native American remains?

    -The Native American Graves Protection and Repatriation Act requires federal agencies to return Native American remains, but it specifically excludes the Smithsonian Institution.

  • What evidence suggests ancient contact between Polynesians and Native Americans?

    -DNA analysis shows some Polynesians share DNA with the Zenu tribe of Colombia from about 800 years ago. Linguistic evidence also suggests contact, along with the presence of chickens in Chile that originated from Polynesia.

  • What does the square cube law state about giant humans?

    -The square cube law states that as size increases, volume grows faster than surface area. This means a 60-foot giant's bones could not support its body weight and would collapse.

  • What archaeological site challenges the idea that advanced civilizations are only 5,000 years old?

    -Gรถbekli Tepe in Turkey has been dated to 11,000 years old, showing that advanced societies capable of monumental architecture existed during the Stone Age.

  • What does the theory of diffusionism state?

    -Diffusionism is the belief that ancient cultures across continents were in contact and traded ideas. This challenges the isolationist view that cultures developed independently.

  • What evidence suggests ancient Egyptians visited the Americas?

    -Mummies have been found with tobacco and cocaine residue, which are New World plants. However, mainstream explanations suggest contamination.

  • What Native American legend tells of giants called the Si-Te-Cah?

    -The Paiute tribe legend tells of red-haired cannibal giants named the Si-Te-Cah, who were defeated and burned alive in a cave by a coalition of tribes.

  • What does the stone cube law explain about limitations on human size?

    -The square cube law shows that as humans grow taller, volume and weight increase much faster than bone strength, so the body collapses under its own weight past a certain point.

๐Ÿ˜† Intro about the legend of giants near Lovelock Cave

This paragraph introduces the legend told by the Paiute tribe about a race of man-eating giants called the Si-Te-Cah who were defeated in battle and driven into Lovelock Cave in Nevada. It mentions past excavations that uncovered giant human remains and artifacts.

05:01
๐Ÿ˜ฎ Humans created by the Anunnaki giants

This paragraph provides background on the Anunnaki giants from ancient Sumerian texts. It states that the Anunnaki came to Earth for gold and created humans by splicing their DNA with early hominids to make a new slave race called the Adamu.

10:01
๐ŸŒŠ Great flood after effects and more giant remains

This section discusses the great flood mentioned in ancient myths that devastated Earth when Nibiru passed near our solar system. It also mentions more giant skeletons found in Nevada and other parts of North America before native tribes arrived.

15:03
๐Ÿ˜ฑ Smithsonian alleged cover-up of discoveries

This paragraph details the allegations that the Smithsonian Institution has suppressed or lost thousands of giant skeletons and artifacts sent to them over the years instead of displaying them publicly or reburying them.

20:05
๐Ÿฅ” Transoceanic contact via sweet potatoes

This section counters the mainstream scientific view that ancient American civilizations had no contact overseas. It provides evidence of pre-Columbus transoceanic voyages, including DNA analysis and shared words between cultures on sweet potatoes.

25:05
๐Ÿ˜• Four stages of suppression

This paragraph outlines the four common tactics used to suppress controversial theories: criticize, marginalize, attack, and censor. It provides the documentary series "Ancient Apocalypse" as an example that went through these suppression stages.

30:07
๐ŸŒ€ Alternate history worthy of discussion

This concluding section states that alternate history theories should be open for debate and evidence continues emerging about advanced ancient cultures like Gobekli Tepe that rewrite mainstream timelines. Censorship of ideas suppresses discovery.

Keywords
๐Ÿ’กGiants
The video discusses legends and archaeological evidence of a race of giants that once inhabited North America. The Paiute tribe told stories of man-eating giants called the 'Si-Te-Cah' who were eventually defeated and driven into a cave by native tribes. Skeletons of unusually tall people, some over 8 feet, have been found across the U.S.
๐Ÿ’กSmithsonian Institution
The Smithsonian is repeatedly mentioned in connection with giant skeletons and artifacts being sent there, only for the bones and objects to later go missing or be unaccounted for. This had led to theories of a cover-up by the institute regarding evidence that contradicts the historical narrative.
๐Ÿ’กLovelock Cave
The cave in Nevada where the Paiute tribe reportedly trapped and burned the last of the man-eating Si-Te-Cah giants. Archaeological digs in the cave in the early 20th century uncovered artefacts and human remains indicating the presence of people approximately 8 feet tall.
๐Ÿ’กIsolationism
The theory that ancient cultures developed independently without contact or trade. This was the accepted model promoted by mainstream archaeology until recent DNA and archaeological evidence showed Pre-Columbian contact between Native Americans and Polynesians.
๐Ÿ’กDiffusionism
The theory that widespread contact and trade occurred between ancient cultures around the world. This view was originally promoted by the Smithsonian's John Wesley Powell, but later suppressed in favor of isolationism.
๐Ÿ’กAnunnaki
An ancient race of giants who came to Earth from the planet Nibiru according to Sumerian texts. They supposedly created humans through genetic experiments to serve as their slaves and workers.
๐Ÿ’กNephilim
The hybrid offspring of fallen angels and human women according to biblical texts. They were described as giants and mighty warriors.
๐Ÿ’กYounger Dryas
A period of sudden intense cooling around 12,900 - 11,700 years ago, marked by flooding as ice sheets melted. This ties into legends and alternate theories of an advanced civilization wiped out in a great flood.
๐Ÿ’กAkakor
A controversial archaeological site in South America containing thousands of stone carvings and figurines depicting dinosaurs, giants, and unknown creatures alongside humans. The artifacts have been dismissed as a hoax by mainstream archaeology.
๐Ÿ’กSquare cube law
A law explaining why giant humans could not biologically function - as size increases, volume and weight increase much faster than bone strength and ability to support that weight. So while some 'giants' had medical conditions leading to great height, they still had human limitations.
Highlights

The study found that green tea consumption was associated with reduced risk of cardiovascular disease.

Researchers conducted a double-blind, randomized controlled trial with 120 participants to test the effects of green tea extract on weight loss.

Statistical analysis showed a significant difference in weight loss between the green tea extract group and the placebo group after 12 weeks.
