Bert från datormagasinet påstår att intervjun med Gabriel von Bajskorv har slagit världsrekord. Men det är Åsskar som har räknat ihop statistiken så det är svårt att veta om det verkligen är sant... Men i alla fall sätter han på en Gurkaspecial med massor av spännande och tokiga världsrekord! Såhär är avsnittsbeskrivningen till avsnitt #100 206: Det är dags för ett riktigt världsrekordavsnitt! Åsskar drömmer om Gurkis rekordbok och minns tillbaka på sitt skämtrekord, Gabriel berättar om tokiga världsrekord och om tidernas längsta människa: Robert Wadlow. Hur lång var han egentligen och varför blev han så lång? De berättar även om världshistoriens mest lästa bok, växter som knackar på dörren och varför det är viktigt att tvätta sår noggrant.

From Goliath in the Bible to Cyclopean mythology, the existence of ‘giants' has been questioned from an unknown time. What might be a mere personification of nature and her forces in the form of mythological 'giant' beings, could otherwise be a ‘giant' when simply compared to a smaller stature of people in ancient times. Ancient Egyptians were, on average, 4ft tall, a height today we would call dwarfism. An average 5ft 9 US man today would be equivalent to a giant in comparison, and there were people in those days who stood above six foot. In the 20th century Robert Wadlow was nearly 9 foot tall, the result of a growth hormone condition. Recent college basketball freshman Olivier Rioux has been in the news for his height, too, standing at 7ft 9. Ancient depictions of giants alongside proportional animals or humans are said to represent important people, though in other cases there are equally proportionate humans and large creatures like centipedes alongside smaller ‘normal' sized creatures. Such images have been found in South American rock carvings. We must not forget massive flora and fauna, including redwood trees, are equally GIANT, as are the many mysterious things in our oceans.-FULL ARCHIVE & RSS: https://www.spreaker.com/show/the-secret-teachings Twitter: https://twitter.com/TST___Radio Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/thesecretteachings WEBSITE (BOOKS, RESUBSCRIBE for early & ad-free show access): http://thesecretteachings.info Paypal: rdgable@yahoo.com CashApp: $rdgable EMAIL: rdgable@yahoo.com / TSTRadio@protonmail.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-secret-teachings-with-ryan-gable--5328407/support.

Sumir eru stórir að utan og sumir eru stórir að innan. Robert Wadlow var stór að utan en James Cameron er stór að innan. Pælingarnar lágu víða þennan sunnudaginn.
====================================================SUSCRIBETEhttps://www.youtube.com/channel/UCNpffyr-7_zP1x1lS89ByaQ?sub_confirmation=1=======================================================================EL FASCINANTE LABORATORIO DE DIOSDevoción Matutina para Adolescentes 2024Narrado por: Mone MuñozDesde: Buenos aires, Argentina===================|| www.drministries.org ||===================10 DE MARZOGIGANTE«Tú vienes contra mí con espada, lanza y jabalina, pero yo voy contra ti en nombre del Señor todopoderoso, el Dios de los ejércitos de Israel, a los que tú has desafiado» (1 Samuel 17:45).¿CUÁNTO MIDES? ES MUY PROBABLE QUE aún crezcas unos centímetros más, sin embargo, difícilmente alcanzarás el tamaño del Sultán Kösen, quien es reconocido por el Libro de los récords Guinness como «el hombre vivo más alto del mundo» (al menos hasta el día en que se escribió esta reflexiónque estás leyendo). Este turco de 2.52 metros creció hasta los 28 años a causa de un tumor en la glándula pituitaria (responsable de la hormona de crecimiento). Sin embargo, no es el hombre más alto jamás registrado en el Libro Guinness. Robert Wadlow es quien ostenta el título, y la última vez que fue medido, en 1940, ¡medía la increíble cifra de 2.72 metros de altura!Sin embargo, hasta Robert habría parecido bajito comparado con Goliat. Goliat era un guerrero fuerte y experimentado que medía aproximadamente 3 metros de altura. ¡Solo su armadura pesaba más de 60 kilos! Ahora, ¡imagínate tú, un adolescente que nunca ha estado en una guerra, teniendo que luchar contra Goliat!Por increíble que parezca, David, un adolescente de estatura normal, que ayudaba a su padre pastoreando ovejas, no parecía intimidado por el gigante. En el versículo de hoy, descubrimos por qué no tuvo miedo: al lado del Dios de David (el Señor de los Ejércitos) Goliat era INSIGNIFICANTE.¿Qué problemas estás atravesando? Tal vez tengas problemas en la escuela, con malas notas o sufriendo bullying. Puede que las cosas en casa no estén yendo bien. O tal vez sufres a causa de las drogas, la pornografía o cualquier otra tentación. No importa lo desalentador que sea tu problema, entrega tus gigantes al Dios que dirige el universo y se preocupa por cada una de las luchas a las que te enfrentas. Él está dispuesto a convertir tus dificultades en polvo. CREE.

Dear Friends and Family,When questions come up in life, where do you go to find the answers? If you're anything like me, first turn is probably to Google. That works out well many questions in life– how tall was the tallest man ever? Robert Wadlow (1918-1940) stood at 8'11” and is the tallest person recorded in history.Boom! Google for the win!That's great for many questions but Dr. Google has left me an anxious mess every time I have turned to it with medical questions – it always seems to think I have weeks-to-months to live. Worse than that, if you ask Google what your purpose is, why you're here, what's the meaning of life, or if there is a god, you will get the algorithm's best attempt to match the relevance of your search terms with content that it has crawled for on the world wide web, your assumed meaning and intent, your geographic location, and the freshness and popularity of the content it is going to offer you.Most of us instinctively know that some questions are too big and too important to leave to a search engine algorithm.So where do you turn when it comes to the big questions of life? This week we will look at the Bible and try to determine why it has become such a popular place for people to turn when searching for answers to life's biggest questions. We will talk about whether it is reliable and what sorts of questions it can help us answer. We will take an honest look at a common objection to the claims of Christianity – “You can't take the Bible literally.” Join us as we jump in and wrestle honestly with this serious roadblock to faith for so many.
TalkSports 5-25 HR 1: Would You Rather Be Robert Wadlow Or Hasbullah by FOX Sports Knoxville
Andre The Giant, The Big Show, Minute Bol, Shaq, Yoa Ming...these Global Icons and National Treasures (see what I did there?) are some modern examples of MODERN giants. Then throw in Robert Wadlow and John Rogan the two tallest men EVERY officially recorded (8'11 and 8'10 respectively) . Very TALL people indeed...but what about giants like Goliath from the Bible, Red headed cannibals that terrorized native Americans, mega ogres from Europe, people as tall as tress from Asia, or men LITERALLY the size of MOUNTAINS in Africa?? Every form of media that has ever existed in every culture in every civilization that has ever lived on this planet has a story or myth about GIANTS who at their shortest were AT LEAST 9'9 .....but where is the proof? Listen today as Art and I breakdown the mystery sounding the lore around GIANTS

Are the Old Testament stories real? Most religious people say they are, except perhaps the early parts of Genesis. Was there a "King David" who killed Goliath? Could someone as tall as Goliath have lived? There are skeptics, but Robert Wadlow, a resident of Illinois, who died at age 22 while he was still growing, was less than an inch away from nine feet tall and was slender, even though weighing 440 lbs. proving Goliath was possible. In fact archaeology now proves 53 people mentioned in the Old Testament, including King David, who slew Goliath, were real people who actually lived. Hear the details from host Martin Tanner in this episode of Religion Today. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Each person is unusual and beautiful in their own way, but some of them stand out in the crowd way more than others. Their unique bodies, abilities, and even incredible love stories make them more than just extraordinaire. We have nothing left to do but admire them. For example, Robert Wadlow was and still is the tallest man ever. He towered at 8'11” (2.72 m) – grown men's heads reached him at waist-level! “The Giant of Illinois” was last measured in 1940 and still holds the record 80 years later. On the other end of that spectrum, we have the shortest man ever. He was just 21.5 inches (54.6 cm) tall. His head wouldn't have reached Wadlow's knee-height. But there are really strange records. For instance, one soccer referee holds the record for serving 36 red cards during one game. He sent off 22 players, all substitutes, and coaches after a brawl broke out. So, yes, world records offer us fascinating factoids. Here are some of the strangest achievements that are quite interesting to know. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Welcome to The Nonlinear Library, where we use Text-to-Speech software to convert the best writing from the Rationalist and EA communities into audio. This is: Goodhart Taxonomy, published by Scott Garrabrant on the LessWrong. Crossposted from the AI Alignment Forum. May contain more technical jargon than usual. Goodhart's Law states that "any observed statistical regularity will tend to collapse once pressure is placed upon it for control purposes." However, this is not a single phenomenon. I propose that there are (at least) four different mechanisms through which proxy measures break when you optimize for them. The four types are Regressional, Causal, Extremal, and Adversarial. In this post, I will go into detail about these four different Goodhart effects using mathematical abstractions as well as examples involving humans and/or AI. I will also talk about how you can mitigate each effect. Throughout the post, I will use V to refer to the true goal and use U to refer to a proxy for that goal which was observed to correlate with V and which is being optimized in some way. Quick Reference Regressional Goodhart - When selecting for a proxy measure, you select not only for the true goal, but also for the difference between the proxy and the goal. Model: When U is equal to V X , where X is some noise, a point with a large U value will likely have a large V value, but also a large X value. Thus, when U is large, you can expect V to be predictably smaller than U Example: height is correlated with basketball ability, and does actually directly help, but the best player is only 6'3", and a random 7' person in their 20s would probably not be as good Causal Goodhart - When there is a non-causal correlation between the proxy and the goal, intervening on the proxy may fail to intervene on the goal. Model: If V causes U (or if V and U are both caused by some third thing), then a correlation between V and U may be observed. However, when you intervene to increase U through some mechanism that does not involve V , you will fail to also increase V Example: someone who wishes to be taller might observe that height is correlated with basketball skill and decide to start practicing basketball. Extremal Goodhart - Worlds in which the proxy takes an extreme value may be very different from the ordinary worlds in which the correlation between the proxy and the goal was observed. Model: Patterns tend to break at simple joints. One simple subset of worlds is those worlds in which U is very large. Thus, a strong correlation between U and V observed for naturally occuring U values may not transfer to worlds in which U is very large. Further, since there may be relatively few naturally occuring worlds in which U is very large, extremely large U may coincide with small V values without breaking the statistical correlation. Example: the tallest person on record, Robert Wadlow, was 8'11" (2.72m). He grew to that height because of a pituitary disorder, he would have struggled to play basketball because he "required leg braces to walk and had little feeling in his legs and feet." Adversarial Goodhart - When you optimize for a proxy, you provide an incentive for adversaries to correlate their goal with your proxy, thus destroying the correlation with your goal. Model: Consider an agent A with some different goal W . Since they depend on common resources, W and V are naturally opposed. If you optimize U as a proxy for V , and A knows this, A is incentivized to make large U values coincide with large W values, thus stopping them from coinciding with large V values. Example: aspiring NBA players might just lie about their height. Regressional Goodhart When selecting for a proxy measure, you select not only for the true goal, but also for the difference between the proxy and the goal. Abstract Model When U is equal to V X , where X is some noise, a point with a large U value will likely have a large V value, but also a large X value. Thus, when U is large, ...

GIANTS!! Some HISTORY & MYSTERY of purported GIANT BEINGS & RACES ...THE NEPHILIM; BIBLICAL GIANTS; THE PATAGONIAN GIANTS; HISTORICAL ACCOUNTS OF MARCO POLO & FERDINAND MAGELLAN; MODERN-DAY GIANTS; ANDRE THE GIANT; ROBERT WADLOW; MILLS DARDEN; PSYCHOLOGY & FASCINATION W/ GIANTS; MYTHICAL; PAUL BUNYAN; GIGANTOPITHECUS; DISCOVERIES OF GIANT SKELETONS & MORE! Of course, the usual levity and banter abounds, because we can't help ourselves, ha!
All aboard! It's time for another journey on The Time Machine with Trish and Mike! You have heard of when pigs fly, but what about cows? You might think we are a little loony for discussing some unusual currency facts this week, but a toonie for your thoughts about it? A toonie would for sure get you a Double-Double at Tim Horton's - how did the iconic Canadian chain start anyhow? You don't need to be a rocket scientist to find out, although Astronauts Mark and Scott Kelly could likely point you in the right direction. Worst case you could always use a phone book to call someone who might know...well if people still use a phone book that is. Definitely, someone who could have eaten their fair share of Tim Horton treats was Robert Wadlow. Find out what world record he still holds to this date! Treats are always wonderful to share with friends. Crikey! We wonder what John Glenn would have wanted to snack on while orbiting the Earth in Friendship 7. Feeling a little puzzled?

* RSR Answers Ham's, "Is God in Control?" Bob Enyart and Fred Williams open the Real Science Radio mailbag and reply to 1) a personally addressed question from a listener, Andrew, about the giants in the Bible and any possible evidence for them today; and 2) a newsletter from Answers in Genesis presenting Ken Ham asking, "Is God in Control?" The guys answer, "No", not in the way that Ken implies. AiG and other large creation groups occasionally weigh into territory that by policy they typically avoid when now and then they obliquely promote a particular denominational or otherwise specific theological perspective. So Bob and Fred ask listeners for patience and grace as the guys directly respond to the theological implications brought up, whether intentionally or not, by the beloved founder of AiG. Stuff's easy to fake* RSR on Ancient Giants: As with the claim that a Photoshopped image actually depicts a civil-war era pterosaur photograph, Photoshoppers, intentionally or not, have deceived many who hope to find archaeological evidence of ancient giants, also known as the nephilim, etc. Ironically, well-intentioned Christians who offer erroneous evidence for the Bible end up hurting the cause of the Gospel. The giants described in the Bible are real, and therefore they are physiologically possible. Those who promote as real the Photoshopped images of oversized giants can learn a lesson from the paleontologists. First, they realized they had overcounted the number of dinosaur species by double (so 500 dino species went poof) and then the paleontologists realized that the ones that remained lost weight, big time! For example, instead of Brachiosaurus weighing 80 tons, it is now carefully calculated to have weighed about 23 tons. (Not only did this make allomotrists happier, but reducing the numbers and weight of dinosaur kinds also reduces the demand on Noah's family and ark, even though of course they brought juvenile creatures onto the ark!) As to overweight dinosaurs and oversized giants, God's design of actual creatures is not only brilliant but omnicompetent. It's not, however, science fiction. It's not cartoonish. There's also strong evidence for quantum biology, that God designed organisms to utilize the currently incomprehensible features of quantum mechanics. What God's designs do not do however, is violate the laws of physics. He designed reptiles, which grew no where near the size the larger dinosaurs, with their legs extending outward from their bodies, before they descend downward to the ground. That design, perfect for reptiles, would greatly limit the size and mass of dinosaurs, since horizontally-inclined legs would quickly fail as the animal's weight exceeded the carrying load. So God designed dinosaur legs to extend directly downward from beneath their bodies. This enables the larger kinds, such as the biblical behemoth, discovered only in 2014 and named dreadnoughtus, to gain weight till it's 65 tons, much heavier than a Boeing 737 airliner. The giants in man's ancient past described in the Bible were living, breathing, biological organisms. Therefore, they did not defy the laws of physics. Because they stood on two feet they could not be arbitrarily large. For example, cedar trees will grow to 200 feet tall (five telephone poles) and even to 230 feet! So that's quite the wild range for the imagination to run with to propose super-tall giants who could even lift average pyramid stones weighing 5,000 pounds. Hearing a Bible verse like Amos 2:9 read about "the Amorite... whose height was like the height of the cedars", one notices an abrupt cut off before reaching the end of the verse which makes clear that this is an analogy and not a literal comparison. For God says of the Amorites, "I destroyed... his roots beneath." Tolkein derived his word Ents, for the tall and strong Middle-earth tree beings, from the Anglo-Saxon word for giant. But for all that could be said about mankind's actual ancient giants, Ents notwithstanding, they did not have roots. So we can see that passages such as Amos 2:9 are not giving a literal but a metaphorical description. Other Bible passages that some of those obsessed with giants insist are literal are those that describe the Israelites as "grasshoppers" before the giants of Canaan. "There we saw the giants (the descendants of Anak came from the giants); and we were like grasshoppers in our own sight, and so we were in their sight" (Ex. 13:33). However God uses the same metaphor in Isaiah 40:22 saying of the earth that "its inhabitants are like grasshoppers." A simile is a comparison using like or as and these verses, as overtly obvious except to those with an extreme bias, are figures of speech. Regardless though, modern "giants" who have amazed and sometimes entertained the masses top out at nearly nine feet tall and compared to these tallest modern humans, people have often described the comparison in terms not unlike the biblical figures of speech. Moses in Scripture provides an actual length measurement which can be used to estimate the height of one especially notable giant. "For only Og king of Bashan remained of the remnant of the giants. Indeed his bedstead was an iron bedstead. (Is it not [still] in Rabbah of the people of Ammon?) Nine cubits is its length and four cubits its width, according to the standard cubit" (Deut. 3:11). So this 13.5-foot bed would make Og, leaving six inches headroom and perhaps two feet at the foot of the bed, a stunning 11 feet tall! Og would make Robert Wadlow of Alton, Illinois, the tallest measured human being, at 8.11 inches, look incredibly short in comparison! The square-cube law, first described by Galileo, compares an increase in the size of an object with its much faster increase in volume (and typically, in weight and mass). Wadlow, for example, had to walk with a cane and leg braces (which sadly caused the infection that killed him at age 22) because as his height increased, there was far too much weight for his size-proportional growing bones to support. This law gives an exact relationship of size and volume for something as straightforward as a cube. But even for things as complex as biological organisms or machines that increase in size, the law still gives a good first approximation of certain expected physical attributes and a heads up for design requirements for engineers scaling up inventions, and for God when He went from designing mice to elephants, deer to giraffes, and giraffes to Brachiosaurs. Scaling upward in size introduces unavoidable physical consequences, including as you actually or theoretically increase the proposed size of a human, or any object, including any biological organism, and that would include the physical bodies of the giants know as the nephilim. If you doubled Wadlow's height from nine feet (times 2) to 18 feet, to get his new weight you would multiply his 440 pounds by 8 (2 cubed). At 3,500 pounds his bones would be crushed with every step. So even taking into account that organisms from 6,000 to 3,000 years ago were stronger and fitter than today, and taking into account also the supernatural aspects of the origin of the nephilm, still, they possessed physical bodies. Ancient giants, unlike giraffes and Diplodocus, still walked, as people do, on two feet and two legs. To be much taller than the Bashan's Og, they couldn't have been simply much larger human-looking beings. Physically, to be as enormous as some irresponsibly claim, these giants would have had to be different kinds of beings, not people-looking kinds, for people-looking 20-foot tall giants would be physically impossible, and besides, such creatures are biblically uncalled for. So what about those believers who have invested hundreds of hours or even years studying and believing the Photoshopped giant skeletons are actually real? We urge them to ask God for the courage to study real science, and real evidence for the Scriptures. This shift in their focus could bring them enormous satisfaction and help them to have a greater influence on others, especially on those who so desperately need to hear about our creator and savior Jesus Christ.

Meet Robert Wadlow and hear the voice of the tallest man who ever lived. At 8 feet 11 1/2 inches tall, he towered over all other giants, including Ted Evans, who claimed to stand a ridiculous 9 feet 3 inches. You'll also meet a shorter, but far more massive man, Miles Darden, who was possibly the biggest human ever.

Alton, Illinois is a great little river town that Diane has had the pleasure of visiting four times. Haunts and legends abound in this little city with a big history. Many consider this to be one of the most haunted little towns in America. One of its haunted locations is the McPike Mansion. Diane took part in an investigation here and had some pretty amazing experiences that border on full-bodied apparitions. On this episode, she is joined by Kelly and they share their experiences and also share the experiences of listener Tammie Burroughs and her husband Brian and they take you inside the dark session they joined. The Moment in Oddity features the Gentle Giant, Robert Wadlow and This Month in History features the first anti-rabies vaccine being given.

In his 2nd inaugural address, Ronald Reagan said, "There are no limits to growth and human progress when men and women are free to follow their dreams." First impression: that's a nice-sounding sentiment -- way to stay positive, Ronnie! Second impression: what a load of crap (and a horrible foundation for economic policy in the age of overshoot)! This episode of Crazy Town focuses on the limits to growth, including the growth imperatives built into our economic institutions, and explores how the economy could make a shift toward sustainability. Along the way, Asher, Rob, and Jason take some potshots at Ronnie and his cohort of math-challenged wishful thinkers.

Feb. 22, 2018, marks the centennial of the birth of Robert Wadlow, the tallest man who ever lived, and a lifelong resident of Alton. Wadlow was normal size at birth, but a growth on his pituitary gland caused him to grow rapidly and never stop. By kindergarten, he was 5 feet 4 inches. He grew to 8 feet 11, and 490 pounds, by the time he died at age 22.
