Video Description

In October of 2001, less than a month after the devastating 9/11 attacks, the United States of America and a coalition of its allies invaded Afghanistan. Early in the conflict, Coalition forces had established a base at Kandahar International Airport, built by the United States in the 1960s. As the story goes, early in the war an American Military unit encountered some kind of giant while out in the mountains near that location. Most of the legend remains the same regardless of who tells it, with details sometimes differing in one way or another. The gist, however, is that the troops found themselves outside of a cave, bones strewn all about, and then all hell broke loose. A huge man burst from the cave, the warfighters fired their weapons, and when the dust cleared the giant lay dead. The corpse of the strange, humanoid creature was carried off by a helicopter, put onto a C-130, and was never seen again; allegedly covered up and then deeply buried by the powers that be...or was it?
