Investigating the Origins of Skyrim's Giants 

The Giants hate Malacath, not Trinimac. Also, at the time of the Dwenmer, giants may have still been talking. There was something that happened between men and giants that sent the giants up into the mountains for many years. When they returned, they no longer could (or would) speak to people.

I realize I'm late in responding, but one theory that can explain not only giants, but their ears is that they could be the result of a Wild Hunt, as there have never been a limit (as far as I am aware of) of how large a single being can grow to. Also, they apparently lose any connection to their former Bosmer life, including memories and reasoning. This would explain their ears, and almost animalistic behavior as regards with being so territorial. Just a thought

I really enjoy your elder scrolls theories, keep up the great work

You know it seems like there's always been way more interbreeding with hominids in the real world as well as those imagined

Ashame i missed this one for so long. At least i dont have to wait as long for the second one.

the giants were created by our dark overlord godd howard so that we can more easily farm daedra hearts, elemental salts and pelts

Kyne breathing the Nords onto the throat of the world isn't the story of the origins of humanity, they're the origins of the Nords. The Nords don't consider themselves to be related to the other races of men, they're much more magical in nature, though a lot of this aspect of them REALLY got toned down by the time Skyrim became heavily imperialized by the 200th year of the 4th era

I do think the Giants pointed ears are a result of interbreeding with the Orsimer.

Hello, I'm a person who slays Giants in Skyrim. Just like how Thor would and for the same reasons. It's fun.

Your origin theories are really interesting, Black Rose! Liked the voices you did in the video too. More voices!

I think Kyne shouted Atmora's landmass in retreat after Shor's defeat.

Alchemy makes some sense imbeing in stealth due to the ability to make poisons. Though magic would make better sense anyway.

Dwemer definitely up to no good. Wouldn't be surprised if they were involved somehow.

I always figured the Skyrim giants were elves, simply by their ears.

Hmm there is a problem about Giants and Man sharing same ancestor, if that would be the case Giants wont be having pointed ears. This phisical look points out that Gians are closer to Mar (elves) not Man. Also I have problem with Hircine being fragment of Lorcan and here is my reasoning: Hircine is fully powered Daedric Prince, if Lorcan would be fragmented his full power (that should be on similar level as fully powered Daedric prince, if not weaker due to him helping creating Mundus) would also be fragmented, so how could then just a fragment of his having full power? If you would say that Peryite (the weakest of all Daedric princes) is fragment of Lorcan (note: the Largest fragment to be more specific) I would believe it, but not somebody who can directly shape mortals into beasts. Edit: I must say though, you do have some good ideas in this video, theory that Giants are result of crossbreeding is solid one.

👍

Nah I just think their society regressed like that of the Minotaurs as a result of being driven out/away.
