I am re-posting this blog for you guys and gals. This was the finger mentioned on last nights show.
A giant finger was discovered in Egypt in 1988. The finger was almost 16 inches long and is estimated to have been from the hand of a being that would have stood around 16 feet in height. Swiss archaeologist Gregor Spörri released the photo to the newspaper Bild last year. The picture were taken in 1988 during his private trip to Egypt.
The finger was later stolen. Was it real or a hoax? There are reputed to be giant human mummies in Egypt that have been hidden by archaeologists. The stolen giant human finger allegedly came from a giant mummy found in graves around Giza pyramids
What you are looking at is a gigantic, nearly 16 inches long, mummified humanoid finger and the creatures height would hve been over 16.4 feet! In 1988, Spörri on the last day of a private trip to Egypt, he met an old man from a grave robber dynasty. The meeting was took place in a farm-house in Bir Hooker, 100 kilometers northeast of Cairo.
After paying, $300 Spörri had a look at the grave robber’s treasure which was the skin and bone wrapped in old rags
Spörri told BILD.de: “It was an oblong package, smelled musty. I was totally flabbergasted when I saw the dark brown giant finger.”
I was allowed to take it in hand and also to take pictures; a bill was put next to it to get a size comparison. “The bent finger was split open and covered with dried mold.” It was surprisingly light maybe a few hundred grams My heart was up to his neck. That was incredible. In size to a matching body should have been about 15 feet tall”

Here is a video that references “the finger” – ( I wonder if it was the middle one?

Ha! Good one, Steven (the middle digit!). Thanks also for the link.
So, the finger was stolen? How convenient.

Thanks, Jan. I’m really starting to wonder about things. This seems to be a common theme – this doesn’t fit with the world as we know it or want it to be – *poof* – oops – nawwwww – that didn’t really exist.

It is realistic looking, and the color is gray like some say the color of bigfoots skin can look….

Wow! ????

If it’s a hoax it’s a convincing one. No, I feel it’s the real deal. I would love to know where these conveniently stolen items go. There must be a huge warehouse somewhere filled with wonderful and amazing things.

‘My heart was up to his neck’
I don’t understand. Did Sporri meet the grave robber who was also a giant?
Steven B
Hi Cyndie – Sporri’s first language probably isn’t English so he may be trying to use a phrase from his native tongue or he was trying to say “My heart was in my throat.” meaning he was really excited.
