In the giant skeleton grave, the one with the construction digger.........Where did the giant get his giant "Revolver" by his right hand? Not to mention giant bullets! Sorry, had to ask.

I understand your thinking here but if that is true... how did dinosaurs become gigantic? Surely they would have been plagued by these same problems...

I can answer that one because I'm working on one of these giants.

They are related to birds, and like bird, had air sacs in their bones. The vertebra I'm working on is about 4 feet long, 3 feet high, and 4 feet wide. It would have weighed only about 200 lbs because of its shape (think of an "I beam") and because it's honeycombed with hollow chambers and has air sacs alongside it (I found the remains of some... we think.)

Human bones are fairly solid compared to bird bones. If that dino bone had been built like a human bone, it would have weighed close to 500 lbs.

Ah photoshop. Note how the two skeletons share the exact same poses but from different perspectives and are tinted with different colours. Goliath was probably Samoan or just had a big growth spurt.
