Did Human Giants Ever Exist On Earth

We all know that there are the Pygmies. But, is there any human group that is significantly higher than average man, such as the Pygmies lower than the average man?

Yet. We all saw the giants as they appear in circuses and fairs. How did they become so high? Unfortunately, these are usually the people who suffer from abnormal appearance of their bodies. In most cases, it is a disorder of one of the most important glands of the human body, the pituitary.

The pituitary gland regulates the operation and growth of many organs. Sometimes it creates a tumor that increases this gland. Thus increased, the gland secretes large amounts of hormones than normal. One of these hormones is growth hormone, which affects the size of the body and skeleton.
