Just today while I was doing research towards the patent and research done by Brighton on applying electrical stimulation and capacitative electrical fields to accelerate epiphyseal growth plate growth, I found another old article published showing that applying some type of electrical stimulation will lead to fractures in bones, whether long, short irregular to heal. Any non-unions because the fractures are too big are more likely to heal and join together.

Since I am having some trouble copy and pasting the title, author, and abstract below, I have clipped and pasted a pic of the top of the article below.

What is important to get out of this post is to realize that the idea of using PEMF or some type of capacitative electrical field would indeed help bone formation, bone healing, and bone growth, but it will not help our endeavor, unless the individual is willing to accept the idea of using some type of bone distraction method, where a fracture has to be first induced.

The researchers at the end in the section for “discussion” notes that the PEMF idea is a very simple and safe non-invasive approach to heal bone fractures that don’t heal very well. Before the application of the PEMF, the patients in cast has not had any union in bone segments. After the application of the PEMF, the union occurred in most of the broken bones around or before 6 months. The researchers at the time did not know what was the molecular mechanism which caused the bones to heal from the PEMF application. There doesn’t seem to be a lot of evidence that callus was formed on the outside. There was evidence however that blood vessels did develop though, and this was followed by gradual interfragmentary callus formation.

The conclusion is that PEMF works, and it will lead to bone growth, just not in the way that we are hoping for. It can always be used as a part of any proposed technique or method we might come up with, when it comes time to create revascularization, and callus formation.

Something that I found recently that has been proposed by Tyler in the post “Lengthening your Body with a Hyperbaric Chamber?” and by Timothy from AdultHeightIncrease is to use the idea of hyperbaric oxygen therapy to increase height for adults. 

From only a very quick look at the idea, it seems that the hyperbaric oxygen is where you increase the amount of oxygen concentration which can reach the area you are trying to affect. The idea is that increased oxygen would increase stem cell proliferation and stem cell numbers. However, I had argued in a recent post where I evaluated the scientific theory of the idea proposed by Timothy that the increased O2 concentration to the muscles would more likely increase vascularization and calcification, as well as lead the progenitor, pluripotent cells towards the osteogenic lineage than the chondrogenic lineage.

I recently found PubMed articles which seems to prove that the idea of increasing O2 concentration is probably more harmful than helpful and that it would actually have the exact opposite effect, stunting growth instead of stimulate it. Interestingly, these articles have been written by Dr. Carl Brighton, whose work I have become very familiar with ever since getting into the research.

As I was going through the forums on the website TheTallestMan.com today I came across a post which linked to a youtube video which shows a young male who seems to be suffering from the same type of medical condition or at least has the same medical traits as the late Matt Mcgrory and Zech Devits, which I had discussed before in posts. The post thread is entitled “Rare Syndrome”

The video is in spanish but a poster named Roger was kind enough to translate the spanish in english which I will post below…

yes, looks like the “McGrory” gigantism, or a new variant of it…

The video is in spanish. Translation:

A strange physical malformation caused that the twin brothers Rodrigo and Javier, in Guatemala, were born with severe physical problems, which derived into an uncontrollable growth of their whole bodies. The twins confronted a great number of diseases, but Rodrigo was born with a very big rib cage, so that he died when he was 1 and half year old, meanwhile Javier continued fighting for his life.

Javier’s Mother: …because they were born with an unknown syndrome…

Months later his twin brother died, Javier started to develop a blend of different syndromes that caused him to continue growing in an excessive manner, while his bones started to twist due to his incredible size.

Javier’s father:… “there wasn’t any other case like this in the whole world. There were 10 similar cases, but weren’t exactly the same, so that made more difficult the situation.”

It was thought that Javier was going to die, like his brother. He also showed hydrocephaly, osteoporosis, and problems to speak, but miraculously he got rid of die, and now he tries to have the most normal life as posible.

Javier: well, here at home, I do set and clear the table, I fold clothes and tidy them up, I help mum a lot, I take care of my grandma…”

Javier is 2m 35cm tall, so he needs an adapted bed, and a northamerican doctor designed a wheelchair for him to be able to move more freely.

Javier’s Grandmother: .. really Javier doesn’t cause any problem to me, he is very understanding and very smart, and we take care each other.”

Analysis & Interpretation

What we see in this case is a young male in a wheelchair who has a very, VERY deep voice due to the cartilage in his larynx and trachea (windpipe and voicebox) both being enlarged. His ears are abnormally large in proportion to his head, which is abnormally large in proportion to the width of torso or body. These are both symptoms of having the chondrocytes in the cartilage enlarging.

His hands are very large in comparison as well. HIs grandmother states that he is very smart and this seems to be similar to Zech Devits’ case where the medical doctors examining him noticed that his intelligence was not decreased. In all three giantism cases, they all wore glasses which suggest that maybe the bones around the ocular cavity were also expanded and pushing against the optical nerve decreasing the vision’s ability.

It is interesting to note that Javier’s twin brother who died had an enlarged ribcage which would indicate that the twin also had chondrocyte enlargement in development. The osteoporosis that Javier had is similar to Devits’ bone maturity development, who started suffering from spinal disk collapse early in life.

A Second video of this Guatemalan giant is found from this link HERE which is a short video on him from the Spanish Media Television channel Telemundo.

From my own limited Spanish it seems that this young man is from the country of Guatemala and is around 20 years old. His height is definitely under dispute since the reported height by the journalists would convert to make him 7′ 8.5″, which would be one of the tallest in the world.

Note: There is a very high chance at some point within the next few years that I will be forced by some government agency representatives to take down this post, and maybe even this entire website due to the sensitive information that I post on this website. This post could be one of the types of information which will get me in trouble.

I have been thinking over the question of whether it was possible before there was any written record of possible tribes or small groups of ethnicities in human history where the people somehow managed to reproduce and create humans of extremely tall stature. I wrote a post a while ago entitled “Could Giants Found In Legends, Myths, And Stories Really Have Existed In Human Past History?” where it seems that there are some archeologists or historians who believe that human giants did exist in the past, and the view is promoted by people who delve and investigate into the esoteric, paranormal, and supernatural phenomena. Another Youtube video I would find and listen to where a guy who was a stone mason named Jim Vieira would go on this show called Coast to Coast and talk about the fact that he somehow found large mounds close to where he lives and after he investigated further on what were the mounds, he came the conclusion that they were burial sites for ancient native american tribes where the people were extremely tall.

It seems that this guy named Jim Vieira gave a talk and it was at TEDx at Shelburne Falls. On national radio he claims that it (the video) has gone viral and became one of the biggest, most watched videos from TEDx in the country. The talk was entitled “Stone Builders, Mound Builders and the Giants OF Ancient America”. The uploader goes by the name acmthc. I have embedded the TEDx talk of Jim Vieira below at the bottom of this post. 

Update 5/15/2013: The video I embedded below seems to have been deleted by the uploader. If you would like to see the video, do a search on google for the video.

Summary Of The Video:

It is very interesting that one of the most famous and loved American presidents Abraham Lincoln, who was known as Honest Abe, would also write about these giants from the video.

It seems that the Smithsonian has gotten at least a few giant skeletons throughout its history and they have not revealed those to the general public.

Interesting also, I found another Youtube video talk with Vieira where he was being interviewed by the host of Coast to Coast . It was entitled “The Suppressed Evidence of Giants & Ceremonial Structures”. The uploader was DiscloseTruthTV. The video is around an hour and 15 minutes. In this interview, he goes much deeper in detail and explanation on what he has found in his 20 years of research.

Personal Analysis:

The first thing that really got my attention was the fact that there has been so many skeletons of large humans or humanoids found especially during the 19th century. It seemed like every few years people were digging up graves of ancient native american burial sites back then. There was a few skeletons that even the Smithsonian would get but they never put on display. Interesting, some of the most famous circus show giants that were labeled freaks had their own skeleton placed in exhibit after their death. It would seem not that far fetched if the smithsonian did decide from getting so many giant skeletons that they would at least put up one of them on exhibit in showing the possibility that the natural history lessons we learned in school may not be completely accurate on how human kind has diverged and converged in its evolution. I personally believe that there have been a few tribes or small pockets of groups of ethnicities throughout human history where people did end up around the 7-8 feet mark. It is interesting that even our former presidents like Abraham Lincoln and George Washington both make references to these giant skeletons that were found in their writings. During the late 1800s, even The New York Times would write sections talking about giant skeletons found.

There have been a few thigh bones where the bones were putting to carbon dating to find out how old they were but those results were never revealed. I would guess that the bones would turn out to be much older than most historians would believe.

The implication I am trying to make is that if a sub-branch of the human race did at some point manage to reproduce to create tribes that were of extreme stature, then it shows that the human body which is bipedal in nature may be able to grow to upwards of 8-10 feet in height without any major serious medical pathology. This means that for us as height increase seekers, that even if we might not be able to make ourselves taller, we might be able to manipulate the reproductive process to creature much taller offspring and spark a new trend in human evolution towards increased height for future generations turning them into true giants.
