Thank you. Is there any other better way/sentence to convey that matter? For some reason the sentence, with your allowing (thanks for showing me the right way though), does not sound good to my ear.

The reason is that you are not familiar with the correct formal grammar.

Teacher, would you please tell me what you think about the statement below, which I will post on my account. I am not sure about where to place '2014', and whether it is human or human. You are also welcome to edit or add additional nice words to make it better.
Live from las Vegas: the 50th Mr. Olympia 2014. Those guys are not human/s.

Thank you very much for your edits. I am just wondering why is humans wrong? I thought it is the plural since I am saying 'these guys'.

I see. Your english skills is amazing.

Could you please give an example for both human and humans in a sentence, just to see how they can be used.
