Not all Nephilim were Giants. Some were human sized and smaller. On the Right is a skull that was cradle head boarded. On the Left is a Nephilim Skull from Peru.
Not neftilims,local deformed their children heads when they were small.Nothing unusual.

His height-weight proportions - scaled by the square-cube law - are comparable those of a heavyset professional athlete in a sport which requires endurance and quickness. Coincidentally, that also makes someone very strong.
According to the NIH's online BMI caculator: 7'9" 425lbs is 34.5 and "you need to lose weight because you're obese". Shaq's is 30.9 and he's in the same category.
Compared to the typical NBA 7-footer Shaq looks like a fat slob with a beer gut. The only truly derogatory thing I can say about his NBA career is that he sucked from the FT line. There have been worse, but not many.
I read about indian customs.some tribes deformed heads of their childrens till spaniards come.
And - Occkham razor.If something could be explained as local practices,visions,or hominids,that they are those,not neftilim.
The only problem with that in regard to these skulls and a few others that have been found is that this type of ritualistic deformity would not explain the massive difference in volume available to the brain in them, which is to say that the reason these skulls are so odd is that the internal volume to them is much larger than it should be if these were simply deformed human skulls. Another one I can think of like this is the so-called star child skull, which has other things about it that look weird, such as the fact the bone has little fibers running through it.
BMI caculators only factor in height. MacAskill also had - despite being pretty thin and minimally muscled - 44 inch shoulders. Even most very large men do not get over 30 inch shoulders. (for reference, most interior doors are between 28 and 32 inches wide).
Here is Sun Ming Ming, another 7'9'' man :
He is skinny there as can be seen in his face and visible clavicles, yet is listed as weighing 370 pounds. Angus MacAskill is the same height, but has an even more robust frame :
Also, early career Shaq :
He weighed 136.5 kilos in that image (approximately 300 pounds). No beer gut there.
BMI calculators are useless. If a man is in good cardiovascular and athletic shape, without excessive mass - whether it be muscle or fat - he can weight whatever his frame dictates he way and not be considered "obese"

Angus MacKaskill and Shaquille O'Neal - when scaled down to my 5'11" by the square-cube law - would weigh about what I and my siblings do: approximately 190lbs, give or take.
Sun Ming Ming: about 165lbs. He doesn't look healthy.
165lbs is about the same weight as Allen Iverson. No one is going say that an undersized NBA guard who scores about a quarter of his teams points without being a sharpshooter looks "unhealthy".
EDIT: The standard door in the US is 6'8"x30" and residential ceiling heights are typically 7'10"-8'0". Most NBA players need to duck when going through one while wearing shoes and a hat.

Then,unknown hominid.I have nothing against existing Neftilim,but hominids are more probable.
Iverson had a build more akin to a soccer player or a boxer than most basketball players. Had the speed and toughness - and the mental - to play any sport he wanted (was scouted heavily by D1 football programs).
Any really athletic man, will be his most athletic self when he is as thin as possible - minimal muscle mass and fat mass, and minimal water weight - without being to the point of passing out or head problems/cramps from dehydration (EDIT : well, maybe not "minimal" water weight. there is a balance to just how hydrated you want to be). Strength and athleticism comes from leverage, tendons, bone structure, natural muscle fiber types, lung capacity, heart strength (V02 max, lactic acid threshold, ect). Building muscle for the sake of building muscle, is a waste of time
Some men just have natural strength and athleticism. Genuinely natural - not "gym natural", or "PED natural". Kind of going off tangent here, but the whole "gym/gain mass broh" is a massive cope
Go outside and run and swim

Iverson - at his actual height and weight (NBA "here's how big he is" numbers are lies) - is slightly shorter and about 25lbs lighter than I am.
Never met him. But, from what I've read he is roughly 5'10'' barefoot, MAX. He didn't have wide clavicles or a large wingspan either. Just an almost Messi like ability to change speeds, and the toughness and mental of a fighter

One of my sisters has. 5'10" barefoot is probably accurate to within a half-inch. She could - and did - shoot over him in a "What the heck, why not?" pickup game.
I am shitty writer,so i would not write story with Angus send to ASoIaF - but here,short TL:
1.5 years before war of five Kings,he is 20 year old and send to Kastark lands.He sette there
2.War - he kill Mountain when he attack Kastarks during battle,their schieldwall hold,lannister crappy riders run or die.
They attack and shatter centrum.Battle end in draw.
Kastart and Lord Hornwood remain alive.
3.Kastark,as last living son of Lord,is send to their land.Angus is going with him,and Lord Hornwood.
Ramsay attack and die.
4.Kastarks retake Winterfall from ironborns,THeon captured,Rickon Stark saved.
5.Kastarks do not rebel ,like in canon - but,we still have Red Wedding,but this time part of army is not there and survive.
They are going North,install Jon Snow as King,and destroy Boltons there.
Wildlings come as allies.
6.Others never destroy Wall,North independent.

jaja I watched this a few days ago, randomly got linked on my youtube algorithm for some reason
The lengths this guy went to try to explain what is probably a tree stump or a boulder or some random pieces of wood or just a straight up trick of lighting was pretty funny

Several years ago, the mother of one of my best friends was murdered in their own home. Needless to say, that a traumatic experience and I ended up moving in with him and his older brother for that summer to help out and be there for him. However, from the very start of that summer paranormal experiences began; my first night in the house I heard somebody walk into the bedroom I was sleeping in and felt them sit on the bed (even heard the springs creak). I raised up to see who was there and there was not a living soul there, which put me on edge. Rest of the Summer passed by like that, you'd catch a dark figure out of the corner of your eye, faucets or lights would turn on/off by themselves, you'd get random rooms going eye cold with the sensation of being watched, etc.
The Kraken.

For a while now I have come to the conclusion that there may be a species of Giant Octopus in the worlds oceans. A creature that might be 40 to 50ft in length. I would explain many of the old legends about Giant Octopus attack ships over the centuries. What do you guys think?
