Original Note:
The claim that the Smithsonian destroyed thousands of giant skeletons is a myth with no basis in fact. It originated from a satirical article and has been debunked by credible sources, including the Smithsonian Institution itself, and fact-checking organizations. https://www.reuters.com/article/fact-check/claims-that-the-smithsonian-destroyed-thousands-of-giant-skeletons-are-many-ye-idUSL1N2ZG1I0/ https://apnews.com/article/fact-checking-029442241800 https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/factcheck/2022/10/04/fact-check-false-claim-giant-human-skeletons-were-discovered-ohio/8126412001/
