  It was like a terrible knifemare Even now, I sometimes wait from the dream
• 0:04
  and find myself shaking from the memory of it. I'll never forget when I
• 0:09
  first saw him, a man so monstrous, so unhuman, that I refuse
• 0:14
  to think it could ever happen again to anyone else. But who can be
• 0:18
  sure others have had the same idea. Oh, yes, the law forbids
• 0:23
  it. But laws are broken every day. Will it happen again to someone
• 0:28
  else someday in the future, Perhaps, perhaps will happened the money. I
• 0:36
  don't want to see it to hear the story of this strange monster. Listen
• 0:40
  in a moment two two thousand plus Adventures in the World of Tomorrow comatic story
• 1:11
  is of science fiction from the years beyond two thousand a d. They an
• 1:26
  amazing story of science uncontrolled. A giant walks monsters. You are monsters.
• 1:53
  Let's just say your slimy stomach stay direct, doctor said, always seek rest
• 2:00
  if you wait figging out already. If I had my way cheerly, lest
• 2:06
  it's put I I wouldn't go towards the bohim all right, or be long
• 2:12
  can be quite a mess, yes, doctor Elsworth, Because everything ready Western,
• 2:17
  Yes, doctor Barstow, Yes, then open the cage looking cool.
• 2:27
  I've never seen a rat running maze A reficly checked that gold Grady in Western.
• 2:30
  Yes, doctor, the rats in the food box now, TECHNI SKay
• 2:37
  eleven point eight. There you see Western not an unusual intelligence, just high,
• 2:44
  well above that of the average wreck. Look at them, the power
• 2:49
  in those lakes, Barstow. Just imagine what they could do with their teeth
• 2:55
  if they had the chance. It's frightening to think, well, what happened
• 2:59
  for all rats? Giant rats? You think at lusis evolution barstole merely the
• 3:02
  scientific elimination of group barriers. Now that your experiments for success, we can
• 3:07
  tell the world. Your theories will be accepted. You'll regain your rightful place
• 3:13
  in science, not your barstole. Not yet. I'm already at work on
• 3:16
  what I consider will be an ultimate experiment. It's only a matter of calculating
• 3:22
  shacking and verifying date on the rests so we can build a larger pituitary revitalizer.
• 3:29
  What animal do you have in mind that there's a new experiment, doctor
• 3:31
  outwith what animal? But there's only one that I could possibly be interested in?
• 3:36
  Now it's the next logical stiff. Surely you can't mean s Bosco,
• 3:44
  a man you ordered to see me. Doctor Elsworth is worse than I want
• 4:00
  to talk to you about the experiment on human beings. I want you to
• 4:03
  help me with the experiment. I hope you are not thinking of me.
• 4:09
  Doctor, I was great. I don't think it matter. Western. Don't
• 4:13
  you think it would be valuable to give yourself to science for all that?
• 4:16
  But seeing that there are so many to choose, for so many Weston who
• 4:21
  for example, I'm sure that old Hawkins won't do and we really can kidnap
• 4:28
  them or anyone. But after els I'd say it would be a great honor
• 4:31
  to be the first real superman on Earth. Oh how about Barstel Exactly Western,
• 4:40
  just what I was leading up to. You seem relieved. Yes,
• 4:47
  in Barstow we have a real physical specimen, and he seems they have quite
• 4:53
  a boundless enthusiasm for the future of mankind, an attitude you apparently don't check.
• 5:00
  How could we get him to agree to it? Psychology, Western,
• 5:03
  It's merely a matter of appealing in the proper manner to his scientific judgment.
• 5:10
  Sense of their play. Now here is what I want you to do when
• 5:15
  he gets back world glad to see you back, Barstow at your outwre west
• 5:29
  than telling me you're ready to begin the final experiments. I'm man, yes,
• 5:31
  Barsto. I soon hope to be the first of a new race,
• 5:34
  a race that will make the man of today look like a pygmy, puny
• 5:38
  and insignificant. If the experiment succeeds, my physical size will double or even
• 5:44
  priple. I'll be able to live at least three hundred years instead of the
• 5:46
  one hundred or so odd years a man can expect to day. The brain
• 5:50
  cells will probably also expand, giving me an intelligence that will make you and
• 5:55
  Western look like products of the stoney. I don't think it's fair for you
• 5:58
  to sacrifice yourself. It's not fairy humanity. If you died, I'll be
• 6:01
  nobody to carry on. You know, these experiments are illegal. We could
• 6:05
  never find another subject. It would have to be one of us three or
• 6:11
  nobody. I'd be willing to take the chance. Doctors W and so and
• 6:14
  I. You can't go through with this. Doctor elsewhere, You're needed to
• 6:16
  direct the experiments. Gentlemen. Gentlemen, I see you have the true scientific
• 6:23
  spirit. Well, since I am unwilling to give up my right to be
• 6:26
  the subject, and you're unwilling to let me be the subject, and there's
• 6:30
  only one way out. What's that we'll draw whats if you agree be the
• 6:35
  decision of the faith. That sounds like a good idea, do you think,
• 6:39
  Sir barstow By? Sure, yes, sir, Well, it's the
• 6:45
  only way out, my boy. One of us must be the guinea.
• 6:47
  Take Now, I will tear a three stra sapor. Now the lots are
• 6:56
  arranged in my hand. Whoever gets the short one will submit to the experiment,
• 7:00
  and there will be no further objection from any of us. For great
• 7:04
  are great? Right, Jew gentlemen, Western Bosto myself, h I've n
• 7:15
  the short one. Yes, i'd like, I'd like some times see Barbara,
• 7:23
  doctor Elsweth before the experiment. I'll give you three weeks to straight night
• 7:27
  you're a third Barstow. Then i'll expect you back at the laboratory facts.
• 7:44
  So why don't that's the third Weston? That's enough? Well Bosto, are
• 7:47
  you ready? Like ready? Doctor else? Right? You know it may
• 7:50
  be painful at first, but after the primary series, I don't think you'll
• 7:55
  notice much. I'm not why doctor else right, No, of course not
• 7:58
  well, good luck boy, Like you said, contacts open Western, Yes,
• 8:03
  doctor them like the circuits. That's fine. I'll keep it steady and
• 8:09
  three thousand. Prepare for the first injection. We'll give him five electronic unit
• 8:16
  charges. Open all your feeling bus though pain. My whole body is numb.
• 8:39
  You've got to stop the experiment. He's out again. Else you think
• 8:48
  we're doing the right thing. It's hard being a slow down. Soon,
• 8:50
  I'm afraid of what Weston. You're not losing a nerve are No, No,
• 8:54
  no, it's only that I thought. Don't do anythinking. Western,
• 8:58
  I'll do that part of it. You just check the regenerator charts. Everyone
• 9:03
  that nothing is going to keep me from completing this experiment. And I warn
• 9:07
  you enough to try to interfere. Western, close the circuit. We'll object
• 9:13
  again. One hundred ccs half of them in three weeks. I can't believe
• 9:35
  a doctor Usmith. Look at him, twelve feet tall and you weigh seven
• 9:39
  hundred and fifty pounds. Of course, Western, as I told you,
• 9:41
  there's very little difference really between a rap and a man. For all animals.
• 9:46
  As doctor he hasn't give himuch sign of life during the past few days.
• 9:50
  You think his body can stand the strain of all this growth, certainly.
• 9:52
  In fact, I think we'll give him the final superinjection today. About
• 9:58
  five hundred CC should do it. Nine hundred that's five times what we've been
• 10:03
  giving to Earth. Western. We're building a new skeletal structure, new flesh,
• 10:09
  cottage and bones. Contacts open David Deady is six thousand. We've got
• 10:16
  to provide the final shot for a system. But that was completely open,
• 10:20
  Doctor Revelt. All right, now, Lock Western, We've done it.
• 10:39
  He's thirty feet tall. Of is an inch fossil? Can you really can
• 10:45
  you understand what I'm saying? Slowly? Votle slowly? You're not an ordinary
• 10:54
  human being? And more he's getting up here, heay, but happening to
• 11:01
  me? Why is everything so small? Or experiment as a success. Bottle
• 11:09
  your superhan? I've made your superhan that I can't move my head? Is
• 11:18
  that in the skylight? Soup down bustle. That's a roly door in the
• 11:22
  side of a laboratory. I think you can call through that easy bottle very
• 11:33
  slowly as it Well, how does the world look now? You have some
• 11:43
  elbow room. Small. The world is very small, pretty feet, muscle
• 11:52
  bone. It's my creation, my creation. Western. Let's have a report
• 12:16
  all our testing. So far as best I can figure, doctor, the
• 12:18
  subject that lived almost twenty times as much weight as an ordinary man and run
• 12:22
  approximately sixty miles an hour without difficulty. Oddly enough, though, he appears
• 12:28
  to get along fine and four or five hours sleep a night. But he's
• 12:31
  consuming food at a rate that's all out of proportional. That's understandable, that's
• 12:35
  still making an adjustments. Go on, meatally very superior theirs to be able
• 12:39
  to solve the most complicated problems right in his head. So just as I
• 12:43
  predicted. But this morning, though, after I just finished giving him the
• 12:46
  work test, he pulled up a tree by the roots waited at me,
• 12:50
  frightening. I ran and he began laughing. Sounded more like fun less than
• 12:54
  you're living your imagination. Run away with you. It's quite obbuse. What's
• 12:58
  the matter. He's not getting enough exercise. We've got to give him more
• 13:03
  physical work to do. Come on, there you are that's sitting on that
• 13:15
  hill, and there boss, Yes, doctor, l's worth. I want
• 13:22
  you to take this special shovel with made for you and take a trench western
• 13:26
  mom for you. Check your work feet all right, Doctor L's whatever you
• 13:33
  say. See it's quite simple. We've just got to keep him occupied.
• 13:41
  Doctor Elsworth Hyde, I like to ask you a question, is what are
• 13:46
  we going to do with Boston? I mean, why are we going to
• 13:50
  tell the world about it? We can't go on and continue it this way
• 13:54
  we can, and once we're sure of ourselves, we'll get up a n
• 13:58
  We'll make giants of them. We're building a race worm, a race of
• 14:03
  superman with which we can rule the world. We've only to learn how to
• 14:07
  control Barsol. So you'll respond to whatever command, and then we'll build an
• 14:13
  army. That's not right, you know, Wen, you're a good assistant.
• 14:18
  It's only what you think that you get into trouble. Are you awake?
• 14:41
  What do you? Uh? I must talk to you act elsewhereth bluts
• 14:46
  to use me for the next experiment. Oh what's that to me? I
• 14:52
  don't think you understand. He's working at a method to control you electronically as
• 14:56
  a giant. What he's been waiting for and what we can finally control you.
• 15:01
  You begin to make more giants I want to build an army of giants
• 15:03
  so we can take over the world. That is true. Doctor Elsworth is
• 15:09
  interested only in science. You just don't want to be a freak as I
• 15:15
  am. Got to ask some everything. Just because I was unlucky at drawing
• 15:20
  lots, don't know, not lucky bar Stall framed doctor Elsworth and I agreed
• 15:26
  to volunteer just to get you to volunteer. We were raised a lot so
• 15:31
  that you would be chosen a police part. That's why I let you know.
• 15:35
  I wanted here to do something about it before Charlie and what are you
• 15:39
  want to do? Where are you going, Doctor Elsworth? Doctor ELL's Worth?
• 16:06
  What's what are you doing at my window? I've come to tell you
• 16:10
  I can't go on with these experiments. I'm through, doctor Elsworth, or
• 16:15
  raving Bosto. Go back to your quarters in the barn and we'll talk about
• 16:19
  it in the morning. I can't go back to the barn. Why not.
• 16:23
  I'm tired of living in the barn. I knocked it down. Harm
• 16:29
  down, bus or calm down before you do any more than me. Yes,
• 16:33
  Doctor else Worth, that's just what your life, isn't it for me
• 16:37
  to calm down? To become nothing but a giant rule in your hands,
• 16:42
  a tool for conquest and revenge. Isn't that so, Doctor el's Worth,
• 16:48
  I don't know what you're talking about, you know, all right? And
• 16:55
  what's more important time th Doctor Elsworth. I know that you tricked me into
• 17:02
  volunteering for this experiment. What if I did, you were the best physical
• 17:07
  specured stop at nothing to carry out your hideous experiments future of mankind? That's
• 17:15
  a good one. You're not interested in mankind at all. You're only interested
• 17:22
  in building a super race for your own ends. You want an army of
• 17:26
  giants so you can take over the world and bustle. You are my subject
• 17:32
  and you have no right to behave this way. If I had the control
• 17:34
  of finish, you'll knocked out that wall. Yes, Doctor el's Worth,
• 17:44
  and that's just what I ought to do to you. You have no more
• 17:48
  right to live than I. How much strength does it take for a thirty
• 17:52
  foot man to kill an ordinary man with instant Doctor else Worth, figure that
• 17:57
  out. What are you going to do? I'm not going to do anything
• 18:03
  to you. I am going to let the World Science Counsel know about your
• 18:08
  experiments. Well know what to do about you and you leave? You're a
• 18:15
  mos pottery? Do want to thank you for? Besides, you have an
• 18:21
  obligation you want by yourself for science is gone? Saw my plans ruin?
• 18:36
  Yes? Western, you did this to me. You told him about my
• 18:38
  plans? Yes, doctor else and I know you'll ruin the experiment. Wesson,
• 18:44
  you'll be great science. You have no right to live or you the
• 18:48
  excite these things come inside? Western? Now a gun? Right? Come
• 18:52
  along now, Wesson, there's one last experiment I want to perform. Oh,
• 19:00
  I'm curious that the other man because stay up against the giant? Right,
• 19:03
  don't please? Please help for anything. I don't want to die.
• 19:07
  I'll be to start to go to experim Let's correct? Question shot up?
• 19:11
  Thought of those things before? That's still why? Hey, Helen, I'm
• 19:38
  sure last the old man. Let me have a jet tie tonight. That's
• 19:41
  a lovely night to go riding with he Hey, Alan, you hear something?
• 19:48
  Listen not to I can't imagine it. Oh, I like it.
• 19:56
  This looks like a man the giant, then the royal foot? Nothing?
• 20:07
  Why are you afraid of me? I just want to talk. I won't
• 20:14
  put it down? What is down? Must I am not a munster.
• 20:17
  I am not you were back on the road. He didn't got what you
• 20:22
  do. But the police, I've got to know about this giant. All
• 20:37
  y'all rockets brown and face throw burn John six or seven immediate most travelers on
• 20:45
  Ian I an order human being a paris thirty a body feet high, baby
• 20:49
  adres the feat the rocket, Jim head the down on me luck, I
• 20:59
  mean I eighty from my sho all rockets, Jack just card the gun more
• 21:03
  ere you repeat check all with them? He again, jam I say hold
• 21:18
  on, he's stopping moving and he is seven. Well some man, but
• 21:25
  what of that rock the one seven to ConTroll located peacher more elepid lead the
• 21:30
  direction of the cando fity what can then? Are you got one seventeen ke
• 21:34
  bond They'll have all of the about rocket cart and join you. Okay,
• 21:38
  Sam one in up now safety office side. We'll find a couple of morning
• 21:44
  got to thumb down safe They all right. He's stopping. He's wearing his
• 21:49
  hands a circle him. He's circling even seeing Joe. That's for control.
• 21:56
  Come in one seventeen, come in a time, prepare for art. Repeat.
• 22:06
  He's swinging its that ro Control calling one seventeen. That ro Control calling
• 22:12
  one seventeen. They don't answer. Commitiononer. I'm found that. Why can't
• 22:17
  we get a video screen? Sakes, I'm working on it, So give
• 22:18
  me that microphone. All police Jeffs in their rockets, All Jeffs in their
• 22:22
  rockets. Attention, attention. Crocket one seventeen has been attacked by a giant.
• 22:27
  Contact has been lost. Takes battle formation, blue, prey, fair
• 22:32
  protect, pay fair for attack, good luck. We'll bless that creature around
• 22:36
  existence. What could it be, sir? A Mandel another planet as possible.
• 22:38
  We can only get that video pick. I'm getting a connection. Look
• 22:45
  there he is. What happens with an enormous creature? Yes, I see
• 22:48
  it? Calling all rockets take elevation of three thousand and prepare a time on
• 22:52
  Tiger's commission. You can it's a battle of mcancy. Oh letill in the
• 22:56
  control room, he s about the giant. Got to stop your attack.
• 23:00
  Crazy. That creatures a menace. He's knocked down one of our rockets and
• 23:02
  now we're going to get him. But you're another spam, sir. Quadrons
• 23:04
  elevate and straight out and targets and deal. Look a Mickner on the video
• 23:07
  screens. Were lady open up on them, so just give the order.
• 23:11
  No, no, no, no, you've got to call up the attack,
• 23:12
  mintioner. Look to the right of the giant. There that small hills.
• 23:15
  Those two men. If I'm not if one seventeen, they're walking on
• 23:18
  my legs at dark Jungcan nine. Thanks god, they're all right there.
• 23:21
  You're saying he's nothing to it's not the attack that they's just been running at
• 23:23
  the center. TAM's let the command. Were all ships the whole that positions
• 23:26
  and the alike in the order unless the giant attack them. Yes, sir,
• 23:30
  here sir, they what you know about that creek from off planet?
• 23:33
  Don sat man? I tell you know the day my government's had to be
• 23:37
  at the laboratory, you would just not become a clam by, doctor west
• 23:41
  and I work in that labatory. Last manner not. He's a mad man.
• 23:42
  We've got to do something about him. You don't have to do a
• 23:45
  thing. It'll all be over in a few minutes. Something's happened. I
• 23:48
  don't see the giant anymore. What do you mean all over, doctor Westby,
• 23:51
  look at the video screen. Yeah, that's what I mean good heaven,
• 23:55
  it's amazing Quarterly twenty to control power. Something's happening. Yes, I
• 24:00
  don't see the train and his disappeared. One of all this all police Chaplin
• 24:04
  rockets attacked, canceled, briefly, attack canceled, So you see by bread.
• 24:30
  I had to thank Western after a he's a disagreeable character. But if
• 24:34
  he had an acted so promptly as soon as he found out, those rockets
• 24:37
  would have finished me. Those worth hard to kill Weston, didn't he after
• 24:41
  you broke away? Yes, with the rats, Western managed to get outside
• 24:45
  the cage and they killed doctor else went instead, And shortly after that the
• 24:49
  rats fell into a cormack and Western examined won by X ray and he discovered
• 24:52
  that the new bone structure was in the process of dissolving into cartilage, and
• 24:56
  that cartilage into flesh, which would soon know the way. And you realize
• 25:00
  their side has only been maintained by the injection, and it'd soon be back
• 25:03
  to their original skeletal structure. That's why he went to the police. How
• 25:08
  did he know you drink too? Because they stopped giving me the injections.
• 25:14
  Oh, seeing you're here like this, I can't believe all those stories in
• 25:17
  the paper about you a horrible picture. I can hardly believe in myself,
• 25:19
  Barbara. It's like bad dreams. Oh yes, he's what I came back
• 25:26
  for. Back there, here they are, and here they go. You're
• 25:37
  burning them. You're the scientifically search up in flames. Hum. But I
• 25:45
  don't want another man ever to go through what I did. Had it off
• 25:48
  from humanity would be just a specimen and sumb side of zoos. I found
• 25:55
  out one thing, Barbara, Thickness isn't a matter of size. A man
• 26:00
  can be thirty feet tomorrow, he can be six feet to ow what he
• 26:03
  has in his heart that counts. This world doesn't need bigger, more powerful
• 26:08
  physical Specmens needs a man with bigness of sal who can allows respect the teleman.
