Dr Grant: "Did you like this video?" Eric: "I...I don't know. I mean, it was kinda preachy. Too much chaos, everything's chaos. Seemed like the guy was kinda high on himself."
Dr. Sereno, this was a spectacular show. I do wish that you had told us who your audience was, and I'd love to hear the Q&As. I'd like to know how Nigersaurus and similar creatures passed the night. Did all dinosaurs just go to sleep at the same time, as though with a quiescent non-alignment pact? That seems hard to believe. I was very interested in your analyses of the dentition and the hips. Thank you so much!
A scientific wonder. I appreciate that there is such scientists who have the patients and interest to dedicate a large portion of their lives helping explain and show such wonder.
It's not about trying to change the other persons mind right, but planting the seeds of doubt so the person comes to the realization of being wrong themselves.
1. The bone in these fossils has been replaced with rock. 2. Carbon dating has dated the fossils and the rocks they came from 3. The bones are on or near the surface because the newer layers of rock that formed (if any had at all) have been eroded away, revealing the fossils.
The similarities of external form follow the same evolutionary need for a streamlined and efficient shape for swimming, a broad tail for propulsion, etc.
Wow I am this guy! Why can't anyone see us as we are? I hate it when people say I can't succeed because I didn't do well in school. I teach myself so much about history and art and writing. Grrr. damn school lol.
What we know about our world is always evolving, changing, and reshaping what we thought we knew. We are always learning, and will continue to do so as long as we are inquisitive about existence on this planet. I feel sorry for creationists who are so blind, narrow-minded, and stuck in a place that never changes and remains constant. It must be true Hell to live like that.
Or the idiots who say that scientists and science can't change as we learn more... Those are worse than creationist folks. One is an ignorance based on belief. The other is just a willful ignorance based on fear and the refusal to chance their thought process... The first one is nowhere near as dangerous as the last one...
The Creation museum, at least, has a saddle on a dinosaur and shows dinosaurs and humans interacting. They think the earth is 6,000 years old. What do you think of their opinion?
For something that is eternal, i find it useless that an eternal being invents time. We use time to use it to relate because we don’t have forever. For the creator question, i could explain in a nutshell way. If i would play a strategy computer game, i could use my nerd knowledge to program a stationary builder-unit and brag that it is the best building-unit in the game. One day, people over the internet might praise that unit for being marvelous of building worlds.
Here is the theory of evolution in a nutshell.Nothing exploded and formed hydrogen and helium,which contracted into stars(against all laws of physics(not blowing apart)which blew into denser elements to form earth.Random chemicals formed life(also against all laws of physics)which grew into humans. Impossible!
daniel de la cruz There are! While most colleges simply insist on a double major of Geology and Biology, there are a few colleges that offer courses solely on Paleontology.

flamingos when they filter their food out of the water spends most of them time with it's head upside down while feeding so why is this head position so unusual or 'new'?
Giratina Laser I'm still a bit confused. I know dinosaurs are related to birds but why do the predator dinosaurs have hollow bones then? Do the prey have thick bones?
Some of them, not all dinosaurs have bird descendants like sauropods (long necked ones incase u don't know) had bones like crocodiles they were thicker than the predators, and the reason predators like deinonychus and utahraptors were fast was because od they're hollow bones and the predators were related to birds which why they have a hollow bone structure
He didn't fix my pet peeve with all Sauropod reconstructions. You have a huge animal with a large nasal opening and some cretin comes along and plugs the hole leaving a tiny opening that would have caused it to suffocate.
I do not understand your reference to the fossil record being wrong, marine reptiles and dinosaurs existed at the same time, but in different habitats.
You actually asked three questions, which I will answer directly. 1/ Questioning established thinking is part of the scientific method and practice, but questions should be logical, backed up with evidence and that evidence must be available for scrutiny. 2/ Are you sure that people react to questioning evolution in the way you describe? I usually apply knowledge, logic and reason, as emotion does tend to cloud ones judgement. 3/ If a question is ridiculous, then expect a ridiculous answer.
@Vide0mak3r The only problem with grass is that is was not around till the late Cretaceous, but i do agree that if it ate water plants it would have to hold its breath every time which would not be very effective.
I think could be referring to the areas where older striations of land have somehow ended up on newer areas. Thats really the only way it makes sense. Unless im mistaken and he just didnt understand.
Sure, Our ancestors looked at all things they could not explain clearly, and named them things or deities they could identify with. They passed on their tales, sometimes exaggerated, to their children children's and today they still perform the rituals bounded to that belief.
as opposed to coming from a magical bearded being in the skies who got insecure and bored over the course of a week; and got furious over mankind because a talking snake got our ancestors to eat some magical apple? Yeah... suuuure.
That is about 99% due to the fact that NatGeo is getting more and more concerned with Popularity and Entertainment, quite a bit less about reporting accurate facts. Think of them as the 1995-MTV of the scientific world. Unfortunate, but true.

"Well, so is the movie we're in."
i dont think dr paul is anything like ian malcom,, dou you think ?
Chaos=creation.
A forest destroyed in a fire always comes back greener.
I'm only half-way through this show, and I am dazzled. Dr. Sereno, this is better than the subject I know most about, which is science fiction.
Dr. Sereno, this was a spectacular show. I do wish that you had told us who your audience was, and I'd love to hear the Q&As.

This is incredibly interesting! Love those videos :)
This looks a lot like a prequel to Bizarre Dinosaurs
Very good... look around, it is .. like so clear in everything we see.
Great stuff. Waaaaaayyyyyy too many commercial interruptions guys.
Thank you NAT GEO
i would love school if we watched nat geo all day
Dinosaurs are so cool!!!
It's not about trying to change the other persons mind right, but planting the seeds of doubt so the person comes to the realization of being wrong themselves.
@NationalGeographic i watch the whole and loved it please post more like this ThankYou
awesome video .
Kids, stop arguing. Learn to grow up! Let's just watch and listen to this video.
I don't know why you got so many thumbs down, when you have a very valid point.
Better than school... which I really should be at right now.
"Tail like a mighty cedar" is probably a reference to the shape of a hippo's tail, rather than it's dimensions.
I should be studying for the finals tomorrow, but I REALLY wanna see dinosaurs.
1. The bone in these fossils has been replaced with rock.
2. Carbon dating has dated the fossils and the rocks they came from

i love the words at the bottom of the screen!
I enjoyed this talk very much. Thank you for sharing!

There's good people and bad people, really! Thanks I didn't know that.

i love how he put it 'in computer' hahaha
couldn't agree more!
Very interesting lecture.
EXTREEEEEEME
You know at this point you need study all birds methods of feeding and neck length and ear orientation. So do it.
nice something to learn
Butterfly Collecting Clit? huh

Which is the only answer you are capable of giving.
Sad, but totally expected.
I have entered into an argument with a creationist. If I don't make it, tell my family I love them.

hi !
Are there scholarships in paleontology in the United States?
daniel de la cruz There are! While most colleges simply insist on a double major of Geology and Biology, there are a few colleges that offer courses solely on Paleontology.
Still not late to change your major,,
Perhaps you're right, but that should be only in areas of geological disruption, faults, compression features and so on.
Lyrics:
Somethin's really rockin'
On planet number 3
Modern man's got prehistoric company
A colossal fossil feud, unlike anything before
Between the reckless raptors
And the Extreme Dinosaurs!
EXTREME
EXTREME
EXTREME DINOSAURS
Tails the snap like thunderclap
Talkin', stalkin' raptor trap!
EXTREME
EXTREME
EXTREME DINOSAURS
The crash and smash Jurassic four
Extreme Dinosaurs!
Saurian stomp!
Let's fossilise 'em!
EXTREME
EXTREME
EXTREME DINOSAURS
Veloci-tossin' to the max
They'll fossilies em in their tracks!
EXTREME
EXTREME
EXTREME DINOSAURS
The crash and smash Jurassic four!
EXTREME DINOSAURS!
Ungay
Wrong one
what about a vast semi aquatic grassland? or equivalent to grass,
I learned something new!
Awesome Intro! ♥
Patients? lOl I hope I'm never a "patient" of that scientist.
Here here!
flamingos when they filter their food out of the water spends most of them time with it's head upside down while feeding so why is this head position so unusual or 'new'?
Well, some dinosaurs that were arboreal before it became mainstream.
Some of the largest sauropod foottracks known were found in Europe (in the Jura moutains, I believe).
He kind of looks like Billy from Gremlins
It's not ignorance in cases like this it's simply denial.
amazing
Theropods didn't live alongside sauropods? Walking With Dinosaurs Allosaurus model used for Mapusaurus? WTF
wait, why do predators have fragile bones?
Related to birds, hollow bones they sometimes break easier than bones like ours
Giratina Laser I'm still a bit confused. I know dinosaurs are related to birds but why do the predator dinosaurs have hollow bones then? Do the prey have thick bones?
Some of them, not all dinosaurs have bird descendants like sauropods (long necked ones incase u don't know) had bones like crocodiles they were thicker than the predators, and the reason predators like deinonychus and utahraptors were fast was because od they're hollow bones and the predators were related to birds which why they have a hollow bone structure
Giratina Laser ah
* Learn of the Jesuit order no
He didn't fix my pet peeve with all Sauropod reconstructions. You have a huge animal with a large nasal opening and some cretin comes along and plugs the hole leaving a tiny opening that would have caused it to suffocate.
P.S. Cowards don't start fights, they simply turn the other cheek and claim to take "the high road" and walk away.
and i suppose crocs have fish teeth lol
That scientific theory beats fairy tales any day.
I do not understand your reference to the fossil record being wrong, marine reptiles and dinosaurs existed at the same time, but in different habitats.
This has always been a dog eat dog world,even when the were no dogs.
very interesting. It's like a college lecture haha.
Now it’s called a ted talk
Science really challenges the beliefs of creationists. Great video.
You forgot to add hurrrr derrrp at the end of your tales.
i ain't scrollin' down to these comments, its a war down there!
could the bone be thin because of some chemical reaction that ate the calcium away
Long and Awesome Intro
I DARE YOU TO MAKE A VIDEO OF THE ASHLEY PHOSPHATE BEDS IN SOUTH CAROLINA.
Interesting but it seems like there was a *ton* of guesswork with the dinosaur he explained in depth.
Evolutionists believe Tortoises should have grown feathers by now... I really dont know what to say to these people anymore...
Why are none of these "Extreme" dinosaurs wearing roller blades?
What about Dreadnoughtasaurus? It has a shin as tall as a man!
You actually asked three questions, which I will answer directly.
1/ Questioning established thinking is part of the scientific method and practice, but questions should be logical, backed up with evidence and that evidence must be available for scrutiny.
2/ Are you sure that people react to questioning evolution in the way you describe? I usually apply knowledge, logic and reason, as emotion does tend to cloud ones judgement.
3/ If a question is ridiculous, then expect a ridiculous answer.
Plus,why aren't there any links?They are all missing!
You can enjoy the videos. I just hope you don't think that people rode the dinosaurs.
@Vide0mak3r The only problem with grass is that is was not around till the late Cretaceous, but i do agree that if it ate water plants it would have to hold its breath every time which would not be very effective.
anyone else gets the sensation this bloke gets off on hearing himself talk?
Yes we can
The facts r on my side.
46:42min? Now thats Bizarre
I like dinosaurs.
wow
Doesn't John say, "You shall be judged by your deeds, not your beliefs?" or words to that effect.
Birds do sink,and scientists have made fossils in the lab.
"For every existing creation, there HAS to be creator."
==
Who was the creator of the creator?
I think could be referring to the areas where older striations of land have somehow ended up on newer areas. Thats really the only way it makes sense. Unless im mistaken and he just didnt understand.
RAWR!
nat geo LIVE! LIVE!!! IT WAS 2 FUCKING YEARS AGO
Sure,
Our ancestors looked at all things they could not explain clearly, and named them things or deities they could identify with. They passed on their tales, sometimes exaggerated, to their children children's and today they still perform the rituals bounded to that belief.
How come you're here making that comment then.
Was there a big magic man in the sky that made you from clay?
as opposed to coming from a magical bearded being in the skies who got insecure and bored over the course of a week; and got furious over mankind because a talking snake got our ancestors to eat some magical apple?
Yeah... suuuure.
That is about 99% due to the fact that NatGeo is getting more and more concerned with Popularity and Entertainment, quite a bit less about reporting accurate facts. Think of them as the 1995-MTV of the scientific world. Unfortunate, but true.
dinosaurs, no. mammoths, perhaps.
>In India and in Asia.
>India and in Asia
>India and Asia
That awkward moment when India isn't part of Asia anymore.
1. Go to RUclips
2. Search Dinosaur video
3. Be amazed by the ignorance of creationists and their need to troll evolution videos
Understand. I live in the middle of the bible belt, So i've had to have pretty much infinite patience with that type of thing. :)
I work in Naperville!
Evolutionists"I don't want God to exist,so even though evidence is against me,I will hope He doesn't.''That's pathetic.
I always thought Dr Seuss made up his creatures
Are you saying that you believe they are real?
Yep.
And here I am, assuming science is defined by the presentation, proof, and peer evaluation of evidence. Silly me.
