The Bible describes giants after the flood (King Og, Goliath..)
Num. 13:33:
“And there we saw the giants, the sons of Anak, which come of the giants: and we were in our own sight as grasshoppers, and so we were in their sight.”
1. The bible describes those two as 10 feet tall and 9 feet tall respectively -
2. Robert Wadlow - 8'11'' -- so almost 9 feet tall. Robert Wadlow - Wikipedia
"Ron Wyatt, on one of his first trips to the Ark site, discovered Noah's house and the grave of his wife, Mrs. Noah. He claims the sarcophagus was 18 feet tall" (Which is not a claim that Noah's wife was 18 feet tall - but at the very least - very tall... possibly 11 or 12 feet)

Six min : 30 seconds into that video they show a human finger found - - left hand little finger, that is huge.
==================
(1) Og, the King of Bashan
Deut. 3:11 says of Og:
“For only Og king of Bashan remained of the remnant of giants; behold, his bedstead was a bedstead of iron; is it not in Rabbath of the children of Ammon? nine cubits was the length thereof, and four cubits the breadth of it, after the cubit of a man.”
While we are not given his height, the length of his bed was longer than Goliath’s height by three cubits. (Three Cubits would be 63 inches)
(2) Goliath of Gath
Goliath is the most famous giant in recorded history partly because of the engaging, inspiring story of him boasting and blaspheming against God for days and a young boy, David, who believes God can do all things, steps up and kills him with a stone and sling while King Saul and his army are trembling in their boots due to Goliath. How tall was Goliath?
1 Sam. 17:4 says “And there went out a champion out of the camp of the Philistines, named Goliath, of Gath, whose height was six cubits and a span.”
McClintock and Strong Biblical Cyclopedia (“Goliath”): His height was “six cubits and a span,” which, taking the cubit at 21 inches, would make him 10 1/2 feet high
Thanks Bob - not sure about Mr. Wyatt's claims but appreciate the feedback.
