Clash of the Dinosaurs - Extreme Survivors - Nature's Greatest Success

[himsonli]

Why feathered raptors again?

[ToritheKitty]

CAN YOU SHUT UP?!?!! THEY'RE FREAKING DINOSAURS! I DOUBT YOU GUYS KNOW ANYTHING ABOUT THEM! LEAVE THEM TO THE EXPERTS ASSHOLES!

[BradNC11175]

Wow, it never ceases to amaze me how these paleontologists and such can speak with such certainty over the behaviors and activities of animals that died out long before them and they had never had the chance to observe in the wild. Good job guys! lol

[N1ntenOwned]

Its because they can compare the fossils to animals that exist TODAY... that they can see in the wild.

[BradNC11175]

N1: That don't mean shit. Would you assume that lions & tigers behave identically just because they are both big cats? If you observe them in the wild you can see they are considerably different. If you could only observe one and not the other you wouldn't know the entire truth about the other.

[carlsm95]

@BradNC11175 well you have a point, scientists are certainly not certain. However, we can make reasonable inferences on how they behaved. How might dinosaurs who traveled in herds behaved much like todays herd animals? Also, what would a monster wearing a suit of armor and a club on its tail possibly do with that? And what could have been the uses of having giant, sharp, two foot long teeth? From observing this one can make reasonable, albeit not certain, inferences on dinosaur behavior

[BradNC11175]

@carlsm95 Your points are fair. Yes you are right, you can draw some logical conclusions by observing physical charicteristics of fossils. That naturally installed suit of armor or clubbed tail is a pretty good indicator of an what that animal's capabilities were. If your speaking of a huge animal with a mouth full of two feet long razor sharp teeth it's safe to say you wouldn't want to encounter said beasty. As far as more intricate conclusions I have to be skeptical of speculative hypotheses.

[Fullmetalminos]

I like this version of T-rex, because is bulky like the Jurassic Park one.

[MarioLuigiTwilight]

bfcg

[thediremoose]

I wish I had a pet Velociraptor.

[robotdude14]

both velociraptor and T-Rex for sure

[ThisIsMrFlood]

Sending Lockerz invites!!! Message me.

[7831549]

i'd rather watch the dinosaur train it has games and talking dinosaurs, OOoooo also songs. lulz!

[myownplylst]

Cool!

[SySt3m]

Too bad none of these dinosaurs can survive me in my full Soul Azure Rathalos armor with my Special Ops Gunlance+. n00bz

[RomanticRebel267]

Can't wait for this program!!

[Lightingbolt008]

I don't see this program on the Discovery channel I watch. :(

[thechuckguy]

dats cause it premieres on december 6th at 8 pm

[icingfeestbeest]

nature's greatest success story? the're all dead .. fail to see the point ... damn american excitement bla bla

[dienlik]

Dinosaurs are still around, bro. Look up a tree sometime, or head to the pet store.

In before I get rated down by people who just don't get it.

[cayetanoluis]

"Dinosaurs are still around"

True, birds

[Jurassicparkrules96]

birds

[dienlik]

Damn it, guys, you were supposed to make me look stupid in the eyes of stupid people!

Fucking informed masses... *sulks*

[TheDrogonRider]

Lizards too

[cayetanoluis]

"Lizards too"

Lizards aren't actually particularly closely related to dinosaurs (or did you mean that they also survived the mass extinction at the end of the Cretaceous). After birds, crocodilians are most closely related to dinos (and have obviously also survived to this day).

[TheDrogonRider]

Thats wat I mean. They're close relatives. And I mean like gators and reptiles like that.

[TJSerabian]

They were the most dominant creatures on the planet for 150 Million years. That far exceeds any creatures today in terms of expanse of time, biodiversity, size, and spread over the planet.

And not to put a finer point on it, but dinosaurs are still alive today in the form of birds. There are at least 7 specific similarities that could be pointed out between dinosaurs and modern birds.

It's the story of how dinosaurs were able to be so successful. Show some respect.

[styrofoamtomato]

they're a "success story" because they roamed the Earth for roughly 180 MILLION years!!!!!!

our OWN existence has been a relative blink of an eye in comparison!

[WelcomeToCarnate]

Of course you FAIL to see the point. If you think being American has anything to do with this, then you probably fail at a lot of things.

[therealsquaseghost]

I love how they say "peel back skin, muscle, and bones"

that's all we have to work with anyway!!!!

the imaging technology is ADDING skin and muscle

sheesh!

[Alililele]

cool video. but wait...who is that guy at 0:30?? gandalf??

just kidding

[myownplylst]

LOL

[FluffyBunniesOnFire]

Is that Dr Bob Bakker, or Willie Nelson?

[Aettaro]

I believe the correct answer is: 'Yes'

[crapmunky99]

It's Bakker. He was in a lot of the little dino shows I watched so often when I was a kid, and it's always cool for me to see him in new shows like this.

[SAsgarters]

He's a very cool guy. I got The Dinosaur Heresies the year it was published. :)

[crapmunky99]

Cool.

[kutaro13]

i kind of regretting not seeing this fascinating reptile alive .. well at least we got Elephants and whales :P

[MartinisLife]

too bad thats not a reptile :P

[kutaro13]

yeha well i was just comparing Dinosaurs with biggest animals on the earth alive .. but imagine elephant being reptile .. what its going to be then ..lol

[FordMustangGTRocks]

the guy on this video is one of my personl friends LOL

[JackCkiller]

omg Ghoust Lab isnt that that show that the houst shited him self or is that only in south park

discovery has some great shows but its not a natural science chanal enymore its more like science fiction dont get me wrong i like the shows but they feel so unreal watch nat geo bether

[ChristopheBilliet]

Since "Ghost Lab" I think that Discovery shouldn't be given the right to disguise anything as science any more, ever. So I don't believe any of this shit.

[Microviper2k8]

Well Ghost Lab is about the science of the paranormal, disapproving or proving the after life using science. So it's still science in it's own right. It's all about the use of science.

[ChristopheBilliet]

There is no science of something that's made up. You could call it a show about mesuring electromagnetic activity around the globe, which by the way is absolutely perfectly natural, but there is no link what so ever to ghosts, paranormal activity or any fucking thing.

I understand your reason, but it isn't science of the paranormal, it's just meaningless measurements disguised as science, which is in term disguised as paranormal activity.

[Microviper2k8]

Well I guess that's half true. I guess it's how you look at it.

[ChristopheBilliet]

Well, it may be a bit subjective, but there is no link between electromagnetism and supernatural activities (if such even exist), that's a fact. :)

[ridingisasport]

its just pseudoscience...

[P0P357UR3]

"right to disguise"

?

[ChristopheBilliet]

The right to distribute science or whatever.

What I mean is they shouldn't be taken seriously. They're giving science a bad name plus it's just plain dangerous to believe what Discovery says. And it's not like this is subjective, because science is something you can prove, and Ghost Lab proves nothing of relevance or logic.

[P0P357UR3]

Ah I see now, I couldn't read it properly the first time.
