I’d love to see how far back they go in the area. You can end up with giants from medical problems. So it could be rooted in pituitary gland problems. I can’t wait until they come back with the dna results. To me it would be hard to believe they have European ancestry since they would have to travel across a lot of South America to get to Peru. But I guess anything is possible. That still doesn’t explain the extreme height.

Whichever way it turns out I will be looking to see the dna results.
