The Giants referred to in the Bible were the Nephilim The Nephilim (“fallen ones, giants”) were the offspring of sexual relationships between the sons of God and daughters of men in Genesis 6:1–4. There is much debate as to the identity of the “sons of God.” It is our opinion that the “sons of God” were fallen angels (demons) who mated with human females or possessed human males who then mated with human females. These unions resulted in offspring, the Nephilim, who were “heroes of old, men of renown” (Genesis 6:4).
Why would the demons do such a thing? The Bible does not specifically give us the answer. Demons are evil, twisted beings—so nothing they do should surprise us. As to a distinct motivation, one speculation is that the demons were attempting to pollute the human bloodline in order to prevent the coming of the Messiah. God had promised that the Messiah would one day crush the head of the serpent, Satan (Genesis 3:15). The demons in Genesis 6 were possibly attempting to prevent the crushing of the serpent and make it impossible for a sinless “seed of the woman” to be born. Again, this is not a specifically biblical answer, but it is biblically plausible.
The Bible also 'explains' a talking donkey, and a man living in the belly of a fish for three days. What's more Rumplestiltskin explains spinning straw into gold. Science cannot explain any of those things. Science is just rubbish, really, isn't it.

You have to scrounge newspaper articles from the 1800s to get some references reinforcing your beliefs. Newspapers from that period also ran a series of stories that human sized bat people had been seen living on the moon through telescopes. If giant humans existed we have no legitimate evidence today such as bones or fossils anyone can verify actually exist in museums or anywhere.

Evolution distorts the "fact" that Adam and Eve were the first Humans.
There is no such word as evolutionism!
Why do theists invent things?
Oh wait, theism is all an invention!
Biology is based on evolution.
Modern medicine is based on Biology.
That's the real world... (You willfully ignorant moron!)

Atheism offers no explanation for origins of life and the complexity of life. Things like "mutations" and "natural selection" only explain the diversification of already complex life.

No giants in the BIble. If you mean the one David conquered , he was just a HUGe man.
