À propos de ce contenu audio
In 1869, two workers in Cardiff, New York, dug up a 10-foot-tall "petrified man" that seemingly proved the Bible's claim that "there were giants in the earth in those days."
In this episode of Weird Americana, we uncover the incredible true story of the Cardiff Giant, the greatest hoax of the 19th century. We’ll dive into the mind of George Hull—the atheist who spent a fortune to trick the religious public—and the legendary rivalry with P.T. Barnum, who was so impressed he decided to create a "fake of the fake."
Discover how a block of gypsum fooled scientists, theologians, and thousands of paying customers. It’s a 10-minute masterclass in historical scams, human gullibility, and the fine line between faith and fraud.
