According to the Bible, yes, everybody was killed off after the Flood except for Noah’s family123 The Bible says that God did not spare the ancient world, but saved Noah, one of eight people, a preacher of righteousness, bringing in the flood on the world of the ungodly (2 Peter 2:5)2
The Bible also says that God made a covenant with Noah and all living creatures, and never again caused the waters to become a flood13 Therefore, there were no more floods after Noah’s time. The Bible does not give us any details about how many people lived before or after the Flood, but it does give us a genealogy of Noah’s descendants from his three sons: Shem, Ham, and Japheth13
The Bible also mentions other people who survived the Flood by being in different parts of the world at different times. For example, Abraham was born in Ur of the Chaldees (Genesis 11:31), and Lot was living in Sodom when God destroyed it (Genesis 19:23-29). The Bible also tells us about other nations and peoples that emerged after the Flood, such as Canaanites, Egyptians, Babylonians, Assyrians, etc. (Genesis 10:8-12; 11:8-9; 15:13-21; 17:4-8; 18:1-16; 19:29-38).

The Bible does not give us any details about how Noah’s family made the rest of the people after the Flood. It only tells us that God made a covenant with Noah and all living creatures, and never again caused the waters to become a flood123
Some people have speculated that there was incest going on in Noah’s family, based on the fact that Ham saw his father’s nakedness and told his brothers123 Some have suggested that Ham himself did the castrating, or that he had sexual relations with Noah or his own mother12 Some have even suggested that Canaan, the son of Ham, was born from this illicit union12
However, these interpretations are not supported by the biblical text or by historical evidence. The Bible does not mention anything about incest in Noah’s family, and it does not condemn Ham for seeing his father’s nakedness. Rather, it says that Ham was cursed by his father for dishonoring him and exposing him to shame12 The Bible also says that Noah lived for 950 years after the Flood, and had many children and grandchildren12

Yes, that’s what the Bible says. God saved Noah and his family from the Flood, and he made a covenant with them and all living creatures. He also made a covenant with Abraham and his descendants, and he gave them the land of Canaan. He also made a covenant with the people of Israel, and he gave them the land of Israel. He also made a covenant with Jesus Christ, and he gave him the church. God is faithful to his promises, and he does not forget his people.
I noticed it wasn't doing it's usual "smileys" with this stuff. Somethin' ain't addin up.
The flood wasn't worldwide. The Hebrew word translated "earth" that we nowadays would think of as a planet, merely means a region of land. Also the descendants of the nefilim the Bible calls giants are extant before and after flood. Not to mention you cannot get multiple races from one white family. Noah was perfect in his race, or genealogy the Bible translates as generations. 8th preacher of righteousness since Adam
The giants just left their bodies.
