Giant of Kandahar
The Giant of Kandahar was a 12 foot tall human-like creature that was allegedly killed by the US Military. The Military claims it was a hoax but others believe the truth is being hidden.
The Story of the Giant of Kandahar
A man named Stephen Quayke called in to the “Coast to Coast” radio show to talk about a U.S Army squad that went missing in 2002. He claimed that the occurrence was still classified and the army refused to talk about it.
According to Quayke’s story, a special ops task force was sent to see what had happened to a squad of soldiers who hadn’t returned from a mission. The rescue crew were walking along a ragged mountain ridge when they came across a large cave.
The cave entrance was littered with broken military equipment. The team were about to enter the cave to investigate further when a 12-foot-tall man emerged from the darkness.
The creature had red hair and a beard, six fingers on each hand and two rows of teeth in it’s large mouth. It was wearing clothing made of animal skins and it had a repugnant smell like that of a dead body.
The Kandahar Giant immediately began to attack the soldiers and managed to impale one soldier with a spear.
The task force began to fire upon the beast. It took over 30 seconds of continuous gunfire to bring the giant down.
The Giant of Kandahar was allegedly loaded into a helicopter and whisked away, never to be seen again.
When the soldiers involved returned to the United States they were forced to sign non-disclosure agreements and warned not to tell anyone about what had happened.
Stephen Quayke broke his vow of silence because he felt people had the right to know about strange things that were happening on our planet.
