Actually I'm Irish and the story I was told was that Benandonner was twice the size as Finn and so Finn was too scared to face him so Una told him the plan to act as a baby and when she gave Benandonner the bread she had previously made two, one with stones which she gave to Benandonner and one without that she gave to finn so thats why Benandonner was too scared to face finn, because his child was huge and he knew the baby didn't get it from Una as she was a human so she was rather small compared to a giant so he knew he got it from finn and because the baby could eat it without a problem he was terrified and ran back to Scotland but Finn had chased him (still looking like a baby) and through a huge chunk of earth at him which soon became the Isle of Man

How can we take your video seriously with an american narrator? obviously if you had chosen an Irish narrator, it would have much more weight. u. s people should stick to what they know - McDonald's and Starbucks, don't try to pretend that you are actually smart or knowledgeable about world history.

I heard a version where the baby also eats a piece of the food that broke the giant's teeth - but the good part, without metal or anything else -, and, that kind of frights the big one. Hehehe.
Thnx for sharing! Really awesome!

The backup plan was for the wife to say, welcome to my home and make yourself comfortable, but just remember: if you wake up the baby by all that ridiculous hollering, I will fight you.

The version I grew up said that fionn was a man. He was leader of the fianna and a huge creature but he wasn't a giant by any means. Also we Irish call him fionn not finn

Benandonner might have a much better physical frame then Finn, but at the end of the day its finns eyesight and his wifes intelligence that won the battle

It is funny but is a significant reason why the mind is a better weapon
than the monstrous strength some of us bestow. Brains over Brawns.

It wasn't made by volcanic activity it was basically remains of a giant tree.
Fibers and hexagons that are within side the trees.
