  • FACT CHECK: Have 36 Foot Human Skeletons Been Discovered? A photo shared on Facebook claims giant human skeletons up to 36 feet tall have been unearthed. Verdict: False This claim is baseless. There are no credible news reports to suggest that human remains of these extraordinary heights have been found. Fact Check: A well-preserved dinosaur skeleton, known as Barry, will be going up for auction in Paris next month, according to Reuters. The dinosaur was named after Barry James, a paleontologist who discovered the skeleton in Wyoming in the 1990s, BBC reported. A Facebook post claims multiple extremely tall skeletons up to 36 feet have been discovered. The photo shows a graphic of human skeletons with small descriptions. “These skeletal figures represent ‘just a few’ giant human remains, unearthed and documented in historical records along with historical accounts of Goliath (who had 3 brothers as big as him), OG King of Bashan, whos bed was 13.5’ long and Maximinus Thrax, a Caesar of Rome,” the image’s text reads. The claim is baseless, however. There are no credible news reports about the discovery of 36 foot tall human remains. (RELATED: Does This Image Show A Real Giant Skeleton Found In Thailand?) There’s little evidence that ancient humans stood much taller than present-day, but a giant ape species known as Gigantopithecus blacki is estimated to have stood up to 10 feet tall a few hundred thousand years ago, according to Discover Magazine. Furthermore, archaeologists unearthed a Philistine cemetery in 2016, but there is no mention of finding any giant skeletons that could be Goliath, according to CNN.
