Granite melts at around 1215-1260 degrees C. That's over 2000 degrees fahrenheit! No flesh could possibly withstand that for an instant let alone make a depression of such depth. Even if the giant stomped through the extremely deep solid rock (even a giant leg would be much too short) and was able to reach cooling granite, the extreme heat would vaporize the giants tissues before they could even begin to make an impression. Problem 2. Its vertical and in granite rock with no signs of metamorphism! The fossil evidence so far puts the largest known hominoids at almost 10 feet tall.

he said the techtonic plates is what made it vertical.

you can be a ass hole all you want but that doesn't change anything dude. the print is there it's incredible, and it is what it is dude. if you don't like that's your problem

Then he doesn't know anything about geology. Plate tectonics work on a large scale (continental) they can cause transport of material but he process usually involves metamorphosis which would have change the granite into another type of rock. I admit the vertical position is not the most questionable part of the footprint/carving. Giants are a cool part of folklore. It is believed possible that early modern humans may have encountered gigantopithecus in asia when our species was moving in to the continent. Imagine that, hugh orangutan looking dude nine somthing feet tall, over a thousand pounds! Just hope he didnt think you look pretty.

lol wow, carving, really ! there are no tool marks. but i guess your so smart that you have an answer for everything. even if it means you just repeat a bunch of shit that someone else wrote or told you. i think we should elect you the smartest most open minded dude in the world. in fact your the most educated person in the americas. fuck what everyone else says. fuck the 30 years of research that Micheal Tellinger has done. you know everything about the anchient world even without visiting a single anchient site. no one should ever question your infinite knowledge.

Yeah carving, how long do you think tool marks last on exposed granite? Guess I did have an answer for that one. I think most intelligent people do repeat what they've learned from others. Can you imagine figuring out chemistry and calculus all by yourself in one lifetime? To be fair I never said I was smart, as far as open minded, I would never say somthing is impossible but I do think of myself as a skeptic in general. I have visited one ancient site by the way as a guest on Native American land. I don't see how this is about my knowledge. Like you said I repeat other people's ideas/theories.

I don't know why you are so emotionally attached to these beliefs. Far as I know, you didnt come up with them (just writing what other people have said/told you):) Obviously we have very different viewpoints on these types of things but I don't see why you take it personally. Debating/defending your ideas to other people polishes the nuances of your thinking and makes you question your ideas yourself. I think that's good if you have time/desire to engage in it. Just so you know I appreciate the obvious questioning nature of your mind, your pro-cannabis ideas and not to mention it is very impressive and respectable that you've attained the rank of brown belt. I hope continuing to discuss these types of things and disagreeing ends up making us friends more than enemies.

Really cool, cant believe I've never seen/heard of this one before!

meh. looks fake.

Except you're the one getting mad when someone questions yours. Oh the irony.

yea no need to start getting defensive unless he starts saying the Nibirus arent coming then...burn him at the stake with all his "smart" books

Pretty cool if it was real and we do some Jurassic Park DNA and bring back some of the giants (though we would just keep them in Zoos like everything else)

Not sure if serious...
