Scientists seek to exhume remains of Donegal ‘giant’

The body of the man, who is measured at 7ft 8in tall, was discovered on Cruit Island in Co Donegal in 1964 by council workers filling a road.
The body was interred just a short distance away at Cill Bhride cemetery on Cruit Island but his identity and background still remains a mystery. Now a team of research scientists say they would like permission to find out more about the Cruit Island Giant.
