Very cool and informative video. Have you heard the other major attempt at reproducing the T-Rex's call, from a few years back? Somehow even more terrifying than your rendition, sounded less like a gator or tiger growling and more like the rumbling of thunder in the distance (Was also at a lower pitch than my old phone could actually play on its speakers). If you haven't heard it, you should definitely look into it :D Some people even theorize that the low rumbling noise it and other predators may have produced has left an instinctive fear of pitches in that low range, which persists to this day, in most mammals.
I'm not sure why the music is so loud...it is supposed to be _background_ music, not competing with your voice music. Hard to concentrate with it so darn loud.
Theres something so primal about low frequency sounds that puts our monkey brains into high alert its actually commonly used in the background of horror movies.
Yeah, whenever a sound hits that low enough level that you can practically FEEL it before you can really register hearing it would be absolutely TERRIFYING... Almost as if the vibrations alone cause your heart to speed up in response to impending Doom... Perfectly put to use in many horror, sci-fi, and action movies to keep us on the edges of our seats and coming back for more 😅... We don't experience that kind of existential terror anymore in modern society, and I think that might be the allure of such movies and television shows/series that bring on that very gutteral reaction. It's like the primal parts of our minds crave it just to have that sense of being alive (survival). Just some things that sprung to mind upon reading your comment 😅....
It resembled me the Indominous Rex of JW1, when it was just lurking around and pretending that it was not seing its prey. Then... comes that biiiig "sniffff" and the eye blink. Really fakin scary, mate.
How absolutely badass would it be if some museum or company made a forest you could walk through with a massive sound system that would play these sounds. Something you could actually feel with your body.
@@katboi7140 There is no resemblance to the dinosaurs in this video, but the Crocodyliformes are the only clade from the Pseudosuchia to have survived the asteroid, alligators being part of that clade. But if I'm being technical, Crocodyliforms are not dinosaurs at all, because they are not part of the Dinosauria clade that is found in the brother-clade of Pseudosuchia, Avemetatarsalia. But both theses clades are found in the Archosauria clade. When I used the term "dinosaurs" in my first comment, it was used in a casual way, to talk about archosaurs, as most people consider archosaurs dinosaurs visually. Here are some examples of "ancient crocodiles" or crocodyliformes that look a lot like our current alligators: the shieldcroc (Aegisuchus), boarcroc (Kaprosuchus) and Deinosuchus.
Crazy thing about vocalizations is, there's usually more than just one frequency in a single vocalization. So imagine that the T Rex had this low frequency rumble going on, shaking you to your core, but that there was also an audible frequency that seemed out of sync with the rumble.
OH MY WORD that would be a brown-pants kind of time. Honestly that... that's goddamn terrifying. Imagine walking through a forest looking for your friend on some camping trip and you think you hear them calling your name, calling for help, or "Hey I found this cool thing!" and then nope, it was a dinosaur all along... yikes.
OMG imagine how scary that would be! And fascinating! I wonder too how many species could have blown out eardrums. Like with a moluccan cockatoo, if you're in the same room with the door shut and it screams at capacity, it can blow your eardrums.
A very low pitch sound will cause nervousness and even panic in an animal, just as it does today. Sounds, from machines, you can't actually hear cause anxiety and even discomfort, that feeling of foreboding and haunting. A predatory animal might use it to frighten prey into leaving cover, much like the high pitched cry of an eagle or hawk does. Many people have reported nervousness around elephants when they are sub-vocalizing, even feeling the rumble through their feet!
Good news is that you’re probably too small for a trex to expend any energy to chase down. Bad news is that by the time you realize it’s taken a detour to come up behind you to see if you’re an easy meal it’s too late…
Speaking of communication between members of the same species. African Elephants can pick up low frequency sound. Through their feet from one another from many miles away. Truly the wide range of communication certain Fauna make. Dinosaurs i would think had a similiar variation and range of vocalization. 💪🏻🙏🏻✨
Very effective. I do wish I wasn't alone right now . . . trying to sleep . . . in a creaky old house . . . out at the end of a dark country road . . that winds through back-country swamplands. It's ok--that is, I'll probably be ok . . . if the windows would just stop rumbling . . .
Started going back through some of these videos, so commenting to help exposure, and to say great job :) one current analog of subsonic communication is in elephants. Infra sound = spooky feeling - alligators can vibrate their whole bodies during mating season...and cassowaries have resonant crest if i remember right LOL ]
Imagine if they had the ability to mimic voices as modern birds such as parrots and corvids can. That could be used in horror films and be so unsettling
I kinda like [as a movie/game sound design choice] the "hissing" approach. Sure some roar, chiping can be cool but brah... :D Did you guys ever heard a bullsnake? Yeah that is a ~1,5kg and 2m snake and it's loud as fck... yeah just imagine a hissing like that from an x tons y meters animal. :D
Awesome video and sounds! Enjoyed it and your other videos as well. Thank you for posting them.... Imagine if you would, considering the number of birds that can mimic other sounds, a raptor able to mimic an injured hadrosaur to lure others in for late night snacks......
Plus the fact that Dromaeosaurids are among the closest relatives to birds out of all the maniraptorid non avian dinosaurs, the theory about them being able to mimic the sounds of other animals could totally add up, although I think Troodontids are slightly closer to birds, but Dromaeosaurids are still the 2nd closest to birds in terms of how related they are to each other.
Now THIS would explain a whole LOT about people with freak hearing going bonkers/ crazy because they can hear the Low Frequency sound-50 Hertz or less-that machinery makes; like diesel engines. When I started hearing LF-sound it used to give me instant panic (attacks): "lizard brain" at work there!
Tbh Dilophosaurus is probably one of the closer ones in terms of sounds in those movies. There’ll be a Dilophosaurus episode coming in the next week and I will be explanding on that 😊
Holy crap. The T. rex sound would be so scary. Something about the fact of it not making any real noise but you just feeling that it’s close to you and your ears start hearting because it’s low frequency but you don’t hear anything until your ears start ringing
Love your cabinet of curiosities in the background... I've got one just like it on my desk!! I feel like you can't be a proper paleontology/anthropology nerd without one 😂
This video is extremely underrated! You deserve so many more views if only for the work you put into collecting data, finding sounds and mixing them into a "noise" that shouldn't be heard to one you CAN hear and experience without going to a club with Bass that vibrates your ribcage and backbone!
This was such a cool video. Given the awesome range of avian vocalizations in the modern world, it's so much fun to speculate on what dinosaurs would actually have sounded like. However, of one thing I'm certain - given that larger types of dinosaurs, like large therapods, ceratopsians, stegosaurs, and especially sauropods, would've had a lung capacity unlike terrestrial mammals today except maybe elephants, I can't imagine just how POWERFUL the sounds they made would've been. I do love hearing those speculative parasaur sounds; it's so eerie yet hauntingly beautiful.
There are animals alive today that make low frequency calls that we can't hear, but they all also make audible sounds for communicating with other animals not of their species. It's not entirely impossible that trex could have also been able to roar similar to what we imagine.
Hearing the T rex made me realize that a small pack of them hunting. It would be easy to scare prey toward your buddies. Hearing a T rex would trigger the urge to run, but where does it want you to run?
Playing on my stereo speakers was the worst idea of my life. My little metal exterior mobile home reverbed and yes the house slightly vibrated. Omg. I thought I was gonna die.
Great video: super interesting. I wonder what ppl would think an Elk sounded like is we already didn’t know? I’d think big, bold, deep sounding. Reality: Squeaky toy. lol
Someone needs to make a dinosaur movie with a t-rex sounding like THAT! So much more terrifying!!! Can you imagine being in the theater and hearing THAT over those speakers!
That T. rex noise sounded very like me trying to start my vintage motorcycle on a cold morning 😅. Or rather, the bike.. the noise I am making is swearing!
I wonder if The one that makes the sound similar to a trumpet wold do what dogs do if you you were to get somewhere within its distance of hearing and below a trumpet Would it try to mimic the sound kind of like dogs try to mimic the sound of a siren?
a) the Channel-billed Cuckoo - *the* most annoying bird in the world. You only played a couple of seconds of that - try 3, 4 or 5 hours of the bloody thing - on & on & on & on... ! b) the first bit of the T-Rex (at around 8:15) sounds very much like a Cassowary. I'm sure if you increased the height and mass of a Cassowary (don't!), you'd get a greater variety of deeper resonances.
The trex noises activated like that primal lizard brain fear, its the same instinctual RUN HIDE NOW GO AWAY ESCAPE DANGER fear you get when you see a crocodile lunge at hyperspeed
What did you think of the video? Be sure to comment below and let me know!
The sounds are haunting and wonderful!
My favorite dinosaur is the
Quetzalcoatlus.
What would it sound like?
Very cool and informative video.

Theres something so primal about low frequency sounds that puts our monkey brains into high alert its actually commonly used in the background of horror movies.
It must be because low frequency means whatever is producing that sound, must be pretty big, thus very real danger.
Yeah, whenever a sound hits that low enough level that you can practically FEEL it before you can really register hearing it would be absolutely TERRIFYING... Almost as if the vibrations alone cause your heart to speed up in response to impending Doom...

We aren’t monkeys
kinda makes me sleepy lol
ever wonder why so many cultures have dragon legends?
the T Rex audio is why we need a horror film with proper dinosaur representation. Could you imagine that rumble in a theater room?
nah that would be WILD.
It resembled me the Indominous Rex of JW1, when it was just lurking around and pretending that it was not seing its prey.
Then... comes that biiiig "sniffff" and the eye blink.
Really fakin scary, mate.
What a great idea!
A 4D movie with that would be absolutely terrifying. I love it
I be like:WTF CONJURING BUT WITH T REX!!!??
How absolutely badass would it be if some museum or company made a forest you could walk through with a massive sound system that would play these sounds. Something you could actually feel with your body.
Yes please
that Trex sound made my cat all sorts of concerned
My cat is used to it by now 😂
Ty for the warning. I had to pat and hold my cat. On the upside, it was looking for the birds at first. 😹
that tyrannosaurus has the same effect as standing in a river with a territorial gator, you feel the growl through the water before you hear it.
I think it's actually quite a good comparison as alligators are pretty close to what some dinosaurs looked like
Just thinking that. I’m from FLA.
Gators are so wild
@@Kitotekika really? I don't see any resemblances

I'm wearing noise cancelling headphones and the T-Rex part was crazy
I’m glad it had the desired effect! It was really fun to make as well 😁
Yeah... Similar... And BOY, did that have me reflexively looking for a hole in the ground to hide in!
my headphones shook-😊
7:56 starts the sound
4:02 for current animal noises
I could see a predatory dinosaur with the capabilities of a lyre bird, mimicking its prey's calls to lure them in.
OH MY WORD that would be a brown-pants kind of time. Honestly that... that's goddamn terrifying. Imagine walking through a forest looking for your friend on some camping trip and you think you hear them calling your name, calling for help, or "Hey I found this cool thing!" and then nope, it was a dinosaur all along... yikes.
To be honest that doesn’t sound far fetched sence the spinosaurus exists and we still don’t even know that looks like 😅
If I heard that T-Rex sound, I wouldn't need to know what it was to crap my pants.
Me neither 😢😢
I means there is something bigger than a brick shit house out there. Like an elephant's rumble and roar
Parasaurolophus sounded like an elk or moose screaming into a tuba
It somewhat was an elk screaming into a tuba
Now im imagining a dinosaur with the vocal capabilities of a white bellbird
OMG imagine how scary that would be! And fascinating! I wonder too how many species could have blown out eardrums. Like with a moluccan cockatoo, if you're in the same room with the door shut and it screams at capacity, it can blow your eardrums.

The trex sounds like the unholy chimera of a tiger and a crocodile
Absolutely horrifying
When I visit the zoo, I can feel the rumbling of the elephants which are also known to produce infrasound.
Good news is that you’re probably too small for a trex to expend any energy to chase down.
Bad news is that by the time you realize it’s taken a detour to come up behind you to see if you’re an easy meal it’s too late…
You also have to take into account stride length. That doesn't require speed.
The trex scared my bird into flying away
Guess it's accurate enough to scare him
I can never escape that tortise video lol
T-REX sounded like a badly clogged toilet? 9:20
😂 maybe that sound has always accompanied being weak at the knees
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Oh you!
@@Niobesnuppa no.. YOU!!

I am really stunned, the sound effect of the t-rex is really horrifying. Complete missed opportunity for so many films and games.
T Rex: 7:59
Parasaurolophus: 10:53
That horn-like sound from the parasaurolophus reminds me very much of an elk bugle.
Very effective.
I do wish I wasn't alone right now . . . trying to sleep . . . in a creaky old house . . . out at the end of a dark country road . . that winds through back-country swamplands. It's ok--that is, I'll probably be ok . . . if the windows would just stop rumbling . . .
Awesome video. The Tyrannosaurus noises activate your prey instincts in an instant.
Remember though, birds aren’t dinosaurs closest relatives, they are dinosaurs.
you never leave a clade
It is conceivable that under the moonlight the sound of the parathysaurus is like an orchestral music
Sounds like my neighbor’s car starting up in the morning. Shakes my whole house. This was primal and much scarier. Awesome video!
11:14 is basically the notes to the opening riff of Black Sabbath.

The T Rex in my personal opinion might have echolocation abilities thanks to the sounds it makes! I could be crazy though.
I do not like the trex sound. It makes me feel like I am about to be plucked from my seat like a lawyer off the john.
Glad it had the desired effect 😉
So, T-Rex practically sounded like a motorcycle engine, with all that vibration.
I cant unsee that every time this guy finishes a sentence he mogs us XD
LOLLL
You ever heard a cassowary? They sounded just like that…so awesome
What earth must have sounded like back then.😮

In all fairness, if I was a trex and could roar I’d do it whenever I could because it’s cool as hell
The trex gave me ASMR tingles.
This really gave me shiver down my spine
Awesome video and sounds!
Enjoyed it and your other videos as well. Thank you for posting them....

7:58 nah that’s actually wild. It almost sounds like white noise, but like I could feel that going through my brain 😟
that's worse than a roar
I'd be interested in a video about what dinosaurs actually looked like as well. Kurtzgesagt made a video on it, but I'd be curious about your take
Can't say I've seen that one but I'll be sure to file that in my videos to come :)
That t-Rex sound is like a poltergeist mixed with a rumble I cannot identify. Scared the heck outta me
Now imagine your body vibrating like it does while being aside a big speaker
Now THIS would explain a whole LOT about people with freak hearing going bonkers/ crazy because they can hear the Low Frequency sound-50 Hertz or less-that machinery makes; like diesel engines.

The cuckoo sounds just like a pterosaur reconstruction that was done just a bit before 2020. absolutely horrifying
Low frequency like Elephants?
Sounds almost like Mechanical. Those Low Tones are almost certain to be a Big T Rex!
What about the hooting cry of the Dilophosaurus in Jurassic Park?
If I remember right, they used an egret to make that noise.
Tbh Dilophosaurus is probably one of the closer ones in terms of sounds in those movies. There’ll be a Dilophosaurus episode coming in the next week and I will be explanding on that 😊

9:43 thank you

Thanks! Glad you enjoyed it 🙂
That turtle's enthusiasm was something to behold.😮
So basically the T Rex sounds like my wife sleeping. So if I were to hear it in the dark I would instinctively tell it to shut up and roll over.
That T-rex theorization sounds like a fucking _car_ at points.
Parasaurlophus is quite literally music to my ears.
OMG those dinosaur sounds are too awesome and scary i love it

The T. rex sound would shake our bones. That’s terrifying.
The T rex made my hair stand on end!! Seriously triggered my fight or flight
There are animals alive today that make low frequency calls that we can't hear, but they all also make audible sounds for communicating with other animals not of their species. It's not entirely impossible that trex could have also been able to roar similar to what we imagine.
Birds have a syrinx which is significantly more complex than our larynx. A syrinx can produce two different tones simultaneously.
The extant flightless bird Cassowary produces a very dinosaur-like, primal sound.
reminds me of an ampt up crocodile

i did a foley project for school and to create a monsters growl i mega pitched down my birds scream

Back in the days of the dinosaurs sure have been some pretty alien times stuff sounds pretty alien to me as well
the para one sounds scarier than the T.rex one TBH
Wow that's so cool, thank you xx
