The Feathered Dinosaur

[MultiDwproductions]

ok there's a few dinosaurs with feathers it doesn't prove evolution true if we look in the bible it says a flood killed the dinosaurs a flood that covered the whole earth thats why we find all the dinosaurs have been in a flood/eruption and yes I'm a christian

[Bldspill]

@MultiDwproductions You are trying to twist the facts to fit your theories instead of changing your theories to fit the facts. Please try not to mix religion and science because those are two different things. Religion is a collection of belief while science is a collection of knwoledge. AND we have established that your God did not create man and beast at the same day.

[klesks8686]

@MultiDwproductions

lol, ur funny.

[ggifter]

Was that big bird at the end???

[Coleaptera]

This is a great show. I think featheres make therepods so much more interesting, and therefore awesome. I don't think it is "comical". Maybe I like birds so much, I see nothing wrong with feathers. At the end (3:35) the mighty t-rex has taken a new level of badass.

[TheBlackViper1007]

so t-rexes had feathers?

[TheOfficialPSPHacker]

recently, a triceratops with pieces of skin still on it was discovered. scientists examined the skin and found little volcanoe-like substances on its skin, just like the stuff that's on birds. Many believe that some dinosaurs had feathers, i don't doubt the smaller, bigger or slower dinosaurs had feathers. just because scientists theorize on what they look like, doesnt make it true....

[MaxterandKiwiKing]

OMG,it's a Guinea Rex!  XD

[ceitiosaurus]

Silly mammals, feathers aren't hair. Featheres may keep us warm but they also keep us cool as well.

[BananaBoyL337]

We can have an argument without shouting ever cuss known to man. Lol who am I kidding nobody is going to listen :P

[BananaBoyL337]

Guys can we stop acting like 8 year olds please?!

[thecommentmaster1]

I did not say that dumbass.

[rasmus11]

The ignorance of "thecommentmaster" knows no bounds. Try not to stay so ignorant all your life, kid. The older you get, the less forgivable your ignorance becomes.

[thecommentmaster1]

A t-rex covered in feathers does not look practical and does not make any sense to begin with. If there was an animal that was covered in feathers and was as big as an elephant it would overheat. Why can't these paleotologists get that in their damn heads?

[thecommentmaster1]

The cgi looks like shit.

[thecommentmaster1]

This episode of naked science is fucking bullshit in so many levels. First a feathered t-rex and then a feathered triceratops or feathered apatosaurus. Whats next dinosaurs that build cities or dinosaurs that lived on the moon? The stupidity of these paleotologists is amazing. You get the feeling that they have been smoking pot.

[thecommentmaster1]

@monkeysbananna You must be a real dumbass to think that. So you really think that even large theropod dinosaurs like t-rex, allosaurus, and spinosaurus had feathers? Please this feathered dinosaur thing has become retarded. The idea of large theropods having feathers makes no damn sense. Look at elephants they don't have any kind of body covering, if they did they would overheat.

[AndreastheRed]

@thecommentmaster1 An elephant is a mammal and cannot grow feathers.

[ceitiosaurus]

@AndreastheRed Trex: Silly mammal, feathers aren't hair. Featheres may keep us warm but they also keep us cool as well.

[AndreastheRed]

@ceitiosaurus Wow, facepalm to myself. I guess I misread the original guys post as saying that elephants grow feathers. Oh that makes me sad inside. What I should have said was that elephants do have hair.

Also, how did the trex type with such little arms? :P

[ceitiosaurus]

@AndreastheRed seriously u think im trex? im a human darn it.

[AndreastheRed]

@ceitiosaurus Lies!

[ceitiosaurus]

@AndreastheRed "Picks up gun and holds to his head." GAGH! Someday but not today.

[AndreastheRed]

@ceitiosaurus ok........

[E1itetube]

Who wants to construct another youtube possiblely called "utube" and leave the commercials out?

[ceitiosaurus]

There should be feathered dinosaurs in cartoons.

[executioner67]

T-Rex with feathers looks like a gay giant chicken.

[monkeysbananna]

@executioner67 Then maybe you should give up on dinosaurs. Because almost all theropods were feathered.

[dcmzbadass]

@JesusPaid4You hail satan

[lampman127]

@dcmzbadass ur no badass ur a dumbass, whore, imbred, bitch!

[dcmzbadass]

@lampman127 its not imbred, its INBRED you fucking tool. why don't you go educate yourself before you talk shit buddy.FAIL!

[oscardaone]

Theropods are most likely to birds than reptile. They have feathers but probably didn't fly.

[lytrigian]

Why totally unexpected? It should have been patently obvious there were once feathered dinos -- I said so myself about 15 years ago.

[fourtywpm]

ha ha the way the music changed when that last dino grew feathers lol It became quite comical at that point

[BioORII]

Evolution in action.

[suzitobi350]

ewww that t-rex's little arms....ewwww

[virgoptrex]

i like Mohawk feathered hair style on the last dino just b4 this clip ended.

[NiteStarGirl]

They said at the beginning the feathered Dinosaur was about 2 foot tall. When I got to 3:30 I realized just how huge some of the others were in comparison!

[Sollenus]

That's more gay than 10$ milk in Alaska.

[Summers669]

Why are dinoes trying to fly thats a fleat adaptation but the dinosaurs is clearly built for fight!!!! someone anyone WHY??

[penguinfromtheholy]

the T-rex's arms look like the Chargers' arms from L4D2

[mikeqigong]

Awe. This wants you to get your pet hair brush and make them purr.

[kryptonkandor]

So a T-rex is dumb or smart, because National Geo. has said the longnecks were actually the dumb ones that were only untouchable till they reached enormous proportions and the t-rex were actually really smart,so anyone care to enlighten me?

[sherrytang5]

I like the last dino it looked like a dino disco vversion on Elvis. X)

[jimexmore]

doom chicken lol

[sherrytang5]

2 feet tall? I could have it as a pet. ^^

[Pozorrogo]

I want a dinosaur with see-through skin so I can see its organs. Now THAT would be awesome.

[jdh501]

. . .and some people still believe in the Garden of Eden and Noah's big magic boat.

LOL! xD

[cerebulon]

Now you realize they probably didn't roar either. I bet T-rex clucked or crowed. Most of them probably sang like modern songbirds.

[joshfif]

things we thought we knew? who wouldve thunk it

[anarcho2narco]

it;s like a vicious dodo lol

[MrTwiky]

D-does that mean Jurassic Park was WRONG?! D:

[Al3xX420]

@MrTwiky

yes a lot of dinosaurs in Jurassic Park should have been feathered. And their portrayal of Velociraptor is wrong. Not only should they have been feathered but the real Velociraptor was only about half the size as the JP versions, which are far more similar to Utahraptor.

[rasmus11]

@MrTwiky Jurassic Park is filled with inaccuracies. The stupidest of all is the idea that plant eaters are harmless. They don't have to eat you to kill you. Hippos, Rhinos and water buffaloes don't eat meat, but they are nowhere near harmless.

[MrTwiky]

@rasmus11 I was kidding... jeez...

[Atheistprimate]

I want a little dino with a fro

[PEREZCHOOCH]

@slipknotrulez38 You like that there's more where that came from! LOL

[thomasliuchapelhill]

This shows the gradual evolution from dinosaurs to birds.

[olson098]

ha this thing was sweet ha look at the t rexs arms ha

[DistortedV12]

Dogs run away! Before they eat you with their chopsticks!

[1rs1TIBET1boi1]

maybe jakals from halo are going to be the new breed of these creatures in the future

[Redcaster916]

Dear YouTube,

The Like/Dislike system, I can live with. I've gotten used to it now.

The new comment layout, fine with me.

But THIS, is just too much too take! The front page has completely lost it's organised, simple layout!

I don't know where you get your ideas, but I think I speak for a big part of the community when I say "YouTube, go F*ck yourself."

I hate people who ask for thumbs up, but this is not meant to be funny. This is serious! Give this a thumbs up and copy/paste!

[peacocktheking]

@Redcaster916 Did this just happen to you this week. Because I had that for two months.

[Redcaster916]

@peacocktheking it was a trial for the first 2 months but today they made it everyones home page. I hate it so much that if they don't bring back the old one I'm done with youtube.

[Michael326]

@Redcaster916

Keep on raging. Keep on raging.

[farvision]

@Redcaster916 the "engineers" at youtube have no clue about good design!

[2degucitas]

Wow, a very nice living treasure at 2:31!!!

[7Rafe7]

GIANT CHICKENS!!!!!

[Giothermal88]

hahah its freaking Big Birds ancestors!

[vincentx915]

Dinosaurs died in an extinction.

Maybe they looked at eachother and died laughing.

[TheHeartOfTheLion]

That's why this whole "Dinosaur" shit is a farce.

[PEREZCHOOCH]

Its a bird its a plane no its....WHAT....Holy Shit its a T freaking Rex! Haha

[rage13371]

chinese gold farmer L0l

[puncheex]

It is most commonly thought that birds are descendants of Coelurosaurs, which descendents include Tyrannosaurus, Compsognathus, Maniraptor, Oviraptors, Troodonts, Dromaeosaurs and Velociraptors. All of these are known to have or are closely associated with dinosaurs with feathers. T rex himself is thought to have had plumaceous feathers, though none have been evidenced directly. See wikipedia, "Feathered Dinosaur".

[hhnguy]

I'm pretty sure that the only dinos that were feathered was the raptors and its close cousins

[itbevee]

@hhnguy Oh well then mr scientist, they should stop finding things like this. They should stop looking even, cause after all, you're pretty sure. Really, new things are being discovered all the time to help us adjust what we know of the prehistoric world.

[hhnguy]

@itbevee Well sorry... Maybe I shouldn't post comments any more!;)

[Dethclops7]

Turkasourus, lol

[iwatch0608]

Lol. The T-rex looks fat. 

[butchdeadlift10]

Buck buck Bakaw!

[Cooleo1992]

oh yes

Hai i azn *swings shovel* o hai mr dino fozel

it was that easy to find a fossel? lol

[axe863]

These are Justin Biebers real ancestors

[jesusantoniogb]

@axe863 ROFLMAO

[coMpLekS1]

what kind of dog is at 0:45? it looks like a sheep dog. IT'S SO FLUFFY!!

[KINGJADEX]

@coMpLekS1 Yes it's a baby sheep dog, I have one!

[bio2020]

This makes no sense to me. A discovery in 1996 showed scientists that Dinosaurs had feathers? Then the guy in the video says they never saw it coming, or could never have dreamed of it?

Um... a certain movie in 1994 called Jurassic Park clearly talks about it. Dr. Grant in the film specifically says that Dinosaurs evolved into birds, etc....

and that was just a popular movie. The idea was around years before Jurassic Park was made. This is horsecrap.

[howielupus]

@bio2020 Well it was thought decades ago that dinosaurs and birds had a common ancestor, but if some dinosaurs had feathers this means that the point at which birds split off from theropod dinosaurs was much closer than we had thought.

[puncheex]

@howielupus: Actually, it is most commonly thought that birds are descendants of Coelurosaurs, which descendents include Tyrannosaurus, Compsognathus, Maniraptor, Oviraptors, Troodonts, Dromaeosaurs and Velociraptors. All of these are known to have or are closely associated with dinosaurs with feathers. T rex himself is thought to have had plumaceous feathers, though none have been evidenced directly. See wikipedia, "Feathered Dinosaur".

[Truthiness231]

@howielupus Birds certainly have common ancestry with reptiles, but yes at what point they split off is still a bit of a mystery. Someday we'll have a rough idea of where they came in though, and this is the sort of research that will potentially lead to the answer.

I still want to see more of the first mammal (the earliest known is a rodent-like animal that looks incredibly like a tiny raptor in structure) and when they split off from the reptiles, to "get to know our own family" in a way. ^.^

[puncheex]

@Truthiness231: Just noticed your comment about the earliest mammals. Actually, the earliest mammals are the synapsids, "mammal-like reptiles" of the Permian before the dinosaurs evolved. The gorgonopsid was one of these. They looked to be starting to take over the Earth when the End-Permian extinction event killed them off, leaving only the small remnant pseudo-rodents that lived through the Age of Dinosaurs to become us after a second extinction event. Look up synapsid.

[Truthiness231]

@puncheex <3 you for that, thanks ^.^ (spent five minutes researching the subject already and my mind is already brimming with new facts about our lineage)

[puncheex]

@howielupus: there is the paleo department of teh U or Oregon who are avid "birds aren't dinosaurs" freaks; they stand on the idea that dinosaurs and birds are are sister therapods.

[Truthiness231]

@puncheex That certainly smacks of "teh U". They're not exactly big fans of empirical reasoning there...

[amorphousguy]

@puncheex I think that by the 1980's it was pretty much a done deal that the birds belonged to the theropods. People like Robert Bakker, John Ostrom, Jack Horner, Greg Paul, Phil Currie, Kevin Padian, and others contributed extensive knowledge at the time. We didn't even need the feathers to prove the ancestry since there were so many undeniable similarities in the skeletal anatomy. Unfortunately, people like Alan Feduccia still cling on to silly disproved arguments.

[luvtwinkie1993]

it kinda makes sense it looks like a chicken and chickens are the closest relatives to dinosaurs

[luvtwinkie1993]

0:23 what kind of tree is in that background it looks beautiful, I don't think it's a cherry blossom though

[Ranavor]

I just keep looping the video from 3:28 to the end. xD

[GroggleTheBirdAlein]

my childhood was a lie

[KittehFox]

Why the fuck do you people watch educational videos just to be douchbags about whats in them? Get the fuck out dont act like a douchebag by making stupid fucking comments.

[Sollenus]

0:45 Epic fluffy dog!

[ITZKANGMIKE]

almost as hairy lookin as a mexican chick

[Chun1ify]

that farmer is rich now, because he sold his land to the archaeologists....

[SubparPanda]

Feathered Dino at the end was rocking it! I want one!

[JoeDuku]

dino with a mohawk at the end yeah!

[KittehFox]

@realmadridzidane5 your a fucking douche bag for comparing gays to a t-rex ass hole.

[realmadridzidane5]

@KittehFox and your a stupid bitch with diarreah of the mouth. i don't blame you though, you're probably on your period

[Furu4392]

@realmadridzidane5

although you definitely need a couple grammar lessons; I agree that kittehfox is being a crazy bitch

[MrGoodJason]

@Furu4392 HEEEL YE

FRACKING NOOOBTUBE git a lyfe stoopid noob dertbag fack u im beter dan u betch fack u

[BeatsByeJ]

I feel so smart these past few months that I've been subscribed to Nat Geo...lol

[valhala56]

It's a good thing that these dinosaurs were dumb, cause they would have laughed each other to extinction instead of extinction by other means.

[GroggleTheBirdAlein]

@valhala56 if they all looked like that than it would be normal for them and so i dont think anyone would be laughing

[neelakash211]

@valhala56 lmao

[mario11168]

Birds will one day rule us all

[danschaoticmind]

Absolutely astounding. Interesting how on the rare occasion, even a normal person can find something interesting such as this.

[Justino292]

I would definitely adopt a feathered T-Rex.

[Summers669]

@Justino292 yeah bu you know the chicken is gonna be the one eating you
