The animations in these old docs are just hilarious. Look at that Rex run. It's absurd, ha! Walking with Dinos really even now doesn't look half bad, despite uncovering inaccuracies. But THIS one and several others animations just crack me up.
love how jurassic park came out in 92 before this dinosaur was discovered. Stephen Spielberg must have heard about this Dinosaur and thought about putting it in his movies and they did in the last one!
@zeeshanpervez. That's like comparing a kayak to a battleship and a toddler to Mike Tyson. How many 16,000+ lb. chickens do you see today that could crush bones? Large theropods occupied niches that doesn't even exist on the same scale today. To compare it to an animal who eat bugs and seeds is silly!
Granted this is an old documentary from the "Actually T-Rex is not that awesome" era but just to clarify. Rex = clearly the largest at 11.5 - 12 metric tonnes), the strongest, the most agile based on hip morphology, the best vision, the best smell, apparently the most fighting experience based on behavioural deductions from fossil findings and apparently the most intelligent megatherapod based on brain analysis. It really was the most appropriately named species ever - the KING of the tyrants.
I take umbrage with some of the terms used....."ugly, grotesque, low-slung." These dinosaurs were majestic and fierce creatures! Other than that, it's a pretty good documentary. ❤🦖
We can’t really say that with certainty. Only two specimens of Giganotosaurus have been found compared to around 40 T.Rexes. But from what I’ve seen there’s a lot of overlap with size estimates.
@@rodrigopinto6676 one 70% complete and part of a lower jaw (the partial jaw was from a larger individual). That’s not much to go on. I’m just saying that we need more specimens to get a better idea of the size range.
great doc. but how can paleontologists reconstruct the behavior and habits of the T-Rex and other predators just using paleontological evidence like fossilized skeletons and footprints?
The gross morphology and limb proportions can tell us a great deal about biomechanics f the animal, and histological (microstructural) analysis can tell us a great deal about metabolism, growth rate, and so on. Environmental analysis of the stratum in which the can give us crucial information about the ecology of the animal's habitat, which in turn can tell us a great deal about the animal's behavior; this latter point is why it is so vitally important not to just "dig up" bones, but also to carefully and fully analyze the environmental context when the animal was alive: palynology (pollen analysis) say a lot about vegetation; sediment types and color can tell us a great deal about the presence or absence of bodies of water and the presence of aerobic or anaerobic bacteria; and general examination of the microfossils present can give us loads of information
Same issue with needing to be fast. Aside from only needing to be faster than your prey, plenty of active animals today (like cats) are stalkers and ambushers and don't bother to chase much. Especially when you've just bitten their entire leg off.

There are so many ways and some excellent documentaries that explain how to assess bones to discover how muscles pulled and pushed, enabling locomotion. Sorry I can't think of any specifics but I learned a lot about facial reconstruction from bones by watching a UK TV series about archaeology. The team were the world's best at forensic anthropology and had also worked on mass graves in Sarajevo. Amazing!
lol Giganotosaurus was SOOO hyped up back in the day. I still have that James Gurney book where it was towering over the leader T. rex and was at least 25% bigger. That was somewhat excusable almost 2 decades ago. But recently the garbage Jurassic World franchise choose to make the SAME mistake. Who the heck was their researchers/writers? They are clearly NOT dino fans!
Don't judge by brain size, compare a dog or cat brain to a birds brain yet a bird can pick up matter carry it into a tree and weave it into a home I never seen a cat or dog do that.
Why don't these documentaries ever mention how duffy use to get picked on for having short little arms. If duffy was a person he would have been completely incapable of cleaning his own a🤬🤬 or even courtesy flushing 😂......🦖
Greetings from Australia....Ive worked as a Park worker in Australia and Landscaper maintaining Parkland areas in and close to the forest near Sydney N.S.W in Australia and what I've worked out is that over 30 years is this. Basically Dinosaurs aren't extinct in Australia because the climate is o.k. for survival. I saw my first living dinosaur when I was 8 years old and after that I always knew about them . Back then cameras weren't very good. Now 35 years later I am starting to get better at photographing them. All different types of dinosaurs 🦖 are still living in very large populations all around Australia and the babies look very cute indeed. I think you should fly to Australia and meet me and then I think you could easily get photographs of cute Dinosaurs around Sydney. I have jobs I do for landscape company's around western Sydney and I can photograph dinosaurs easier because I know them.
I have a OneDrive account and any photographs I take whilst working I put on my OneDrive storage . I got really scary photos over the last few years. I know for sure that all types dinosaur are not extinct because I have seen them by myself and with people I know . I have many photographs I have taken but I don't have any money to buy car , or decent Camera. Maybe David Attenborough should do a documentary
Everything I thought I knew about “Sue” and T.Rex, was just blown out of the water; maybe not the running theory. Like a dog or a bird that falls on its back, it’ll just roll over and get back on its feet; if it doesn’t hurt itself first. However, it makes family group or pack alliance more plausible. So it could be true…. Not only did these animals fight to the death; it’s very possible that Sue… was killed by a T-Rex larger than herself. Holy Crap!
So people rag on Jurassic Park because they beefed the raptors up from the size of a large turkey to the six foot monsters in the movie, my problem? They just said this 3 ft raptor was a baby cuz it's so small but supposedly that's as big as they got irl. So was Jurassic Park right after all or does this paleo-family not know what they are talking about?
Huh? What the hell are you going on about? JP's velociraptor was simply Deinonychus but name-swapped, as well as made about a foot taller (would have been 5 feet tall as opposed to 6 feet). Not hard to understand.
Utah raptor was a big raptor , the same as jurassic park velociraptor. With one big difference; they had feathers a lot . Velociraptor, utah raptor, all of them had feathers . Just like modern birds.
@@maxmcqueen1196 Oh yes, T-Rex is the favorite dino, and we found a hole lot of it, now with all the intel that we got and the high tech, we did learned a lot in the last years

@@jackstraw4222 The 6 ton average adult size estimate for T. rex has just recently been ditched, as before we didn't know the exact shape or proportions of the animal's torso.
@@jackstraw4222 Nope lol, Sue was the biggest one in weight found so far, super bulk, but there is another femur found, from a ever bulkier animal, really insane, and the estimate weight of Sue is 9-10ton already. This is what all the science involved gave us, I'm not just guessing. I don't remember to have seen a skull bigger than Scotty's, I would like to check it out, cool. But we already know that in weight, Scotty would looking like starving to death, compared to the biggest ones that we found so far, one if sue and the other we got only the femur, I forgot the name, but is a insane femur, I bet u know.
The idea that a large animal simply falling down would be a fatal event for it is laughable to say the least. The only amimals on earth currently capable of crushing themselves under their own weight are all sea dwelling species. Keep in mind we currently have some rather large animals. Elephants for example are nearly the size of a tyrannosaurus. They can fall down without dying lmao.
T-Rex wasn't a predator, it was a pure scavenger from its huge olefactory cavities and deevolution of it's forelimbs indicating loss of use as a scavenger... There's no ignoring these facts... T-Rex was like a giant walking buzzard searching for dead carcases, but I'm sure T-Rex was in some brawls with other animals over food, so not all is lost... 🙂
Had to stop watching after about four minutes when you said there's only been two dozen T-Rex's discovered total and that an adult male could weigh up to six tons, if there's that much misinformation in the first few minutes I can imagine what the rest of it will be like. FYI there have been more than forty T-Rex skeletons found to date and the largest were estimated to be just under nine tons in weight.
Ah, yeah. These things preyed on freaking sauropods. A triceratops did kill a tyranosaur, yeah, true. We have fossil evidence of that, but, dude, how bad ass do you have to be to go after something 10 times your size ? That's the real question.
They mostly didn't. Sauropods produced plenty of juveniles that predators could feed on. There's no real evidence of pack hunting among dinosaurs. If you're 10 times the size you have no natural predators.
