Okay, I'm in love with Acrocanthosaurus (due to the fact it was found in Texas and I'm from Texas) and it is a superb predator and capable of taking out large prey. Though, I am curious on how intelligent it is. This needs to be studied by paleontologists. =P
T-Rex lovers are the equivalent of archaeology nerds roflmao
And only because it was one of the first lizards discovered and Hollywood pulled as much money out of its ass as it could. Oh, and it is the perfect "American" dinosaur: big, mean, powerful, so all others fear it... therefore, no other one can be better.
Grow up, bitches.
There's so much stuff underground waiting to be discovered.
I hope that they find a whole Rex inside a Whosyourdaddysaurus one of these days.
@SomeoneCommenting You wish bitch. =P T-Rex is by far one of the best predators and so is its family members, the Tyrannosaurids. They ruled over two continents, so that suggest how immediately tyrant they really were. So suck on that, bitch. lol. jk.
@MrTobyCure Theres no need for such abusive language. Tyrannosaurs were only able to rise to dominance because the giant Charcaradontosaurs like Acrocanthosaurus and Giganotosaurus became extinct. Also did you know that the gian crocodilian Dinosuchus also kicked Trex's ancestors albertasaurus's ass.
@indrajeet Lol. xD I've known that for a very long time about Deinosuchus. I've heard a lot about that, but I am speculating about that since we have no evidence over an attack by Deinosuchus preying upon Albertosaurus. Though, I am sure they competed for food, but that's why Tyrannosaurs got bigger and badder. xD Daspletosaurus would kick Deinosuchus' ass for sure since its heavier and bigger, which could pose a challenge to Deino.
DID HE SAY TEMPS WERE 90 to 100 ON AVERAGE!!. Global warming without human intervention. And still the planet was teaming with life and not doomed or destroyed. How DO you account for it?!?!
Strong arms are hardly a factor when determining the greater therapod because we now know the only therapods that used their arms were spinosaurs. even if it had arms large enough to use in combat odds are it wasn't in it's behavior to do so.
@indrajeet i did see it, so im very confused as to what you saw. of the few spinosaurus fossils found there isn't enough left to claim with any validity that those particular spinos were in a fight before their death. It wouldn't need to fight anyway as it's sheer size would scare off competitiors. Oh and for your comment about being much lager then T-rex, the were both the 15 to 20 ft tall on average, in the same weight range, and spinosaurus had a 15 ft longer tail then the average large-
@natesdevices Well at least we agree on some thing, Spinosarus was certainly a formidable predator. You do realise that the weight and therfore overall muscle mass of spinosaurus was much greater then Trex. Trex's weight is estimated at 4-5 Tons, Spinosaurus's weight is estimated at around 7 Tons and a length of around 60 feet, this is overall not just a long tail.
@indrajeet CONTINUED FROM LAST COMMENT.- therapod to balance out it's massive sail, so unless you think it's using it's tail as a weapon, 95% chance that it's not, then it's size doesn't even come into it. What is my proof for why the spinosaurus would die if it broke it's nerve filled spines, because like every other vertebrate EVER a snap in the spine or any growth of the spine is HYPER susceptible to flooding from spinal excess if the wound goes untreated, and if some how the spine was-
@natesdevices Ok, lets get some things cleared up. The vetebrae of Spinosarus would have been encased in a thick layer of dense muscle, similar to Acrocanthosaurus, the base of the spines would have been covered in this dense muscle but the rest of it would have been covered in skin and blood vessels. Secondly, the spines despite their name are actually laterally compressed and would naturally break in a side to side motion, but but the weak point would be wat above the muscle point.
@natesdevices The spinal cord ran through the vetebrae of Spinosaurus, not the spines. As I mentioned earlier - the vetebrae would have been ehavily muscled, like Suchomimus and Acrocanthosaurus, this would have supported the spines. The base of the spines would have been heavily encased in muscle, but the rest of the spine around 70%+ would have been covered in skin and minor blood vessels like an elephants ear.
@indrajeet CONTINUED FROM LAST COMMENT -actually able to survive being crushed then it would push the spinal column in the direction that it hit the ground, rotating the spinal cord and then piching the spinal cord killing it instantly. I have a friend whose a sugical assistent and a minor in paleontology, it's statements like yours who drive them nuts. thats all i have to say to you sir.
@natesdevices As mentioned earlier - vetebrae = encased in dense muscle, base of spine = encased in dens muscle, 70% of spine = covered in skin and minor blood vessels. Spines = laterally compressed bone - naturally and can break in a side to side motion. Where is the weak point - somewhere above the muscle layer
@indrajeet im not sure i follow, sorry it's late i might not be processing right. however, your weights are off, new findings and reexaminations suggest trex was about 7 to 8 metric tons, spinosaurus with it's spine weighing a collossal 11 tons.
@natesdevices I'm quite suprised you say that, new studies into Dinosaur natomy show that they shared various weight saving design features with Birds such as hollow bones. This has bought the estimate of Trex's weight down to 4-5 Tons, most say this.
@MrTobyCure Ive have herd about new analysis, but the paleontological community is divided in its opinion of weight estimtaes, new discomevries in comparing Birds with Dinosaurs have lowered the weight estimates.
@indrajeet true. which is why I can't really stand paleontology. Its too differentiated and spread apart and based on opinion rather than fact. I've heard of it as well, but I don't think that is very true though since T-Rex may be a descendant of birds due to being a Theropod, but the closest to having hollowed bones are the Raptor family since they even closely related. I don't think T-Rex would need to lighten his bones. :\
@MrTobyCure Trex certainly did need to have weight saving features, especiall with its heavy muscled skull, many dinosaurs had hollowed out bones not just dromeosaurs.
@indrajeet I know it had weight saving features on its skull with huge holes in it, but T-Rex CERTAINLY didn't have hollow bones on its skull since it was stronger than "diamond" supposedly (not sure if that's true, but I'm sure it used its head like a battering ram). T-Rex's hips and legs weighed in about one ton each, which T-Rex didn't have hollowed out bones since it had problems with arthritis and other bone diseases once it got at the age of 20s through its 30s.
@indrajeet Continued from last comment- oh, btw, should have said this in my last comment, spinosaurus was 60 ft because of it's tail, Truly. For an animal with an estimmated 2.5 ton at least spine on its back, it's tail would HAVE to be proportienately larger to it's body or it wouldn't be ABLE to move properly. Say spinosaurus was twice it's length, 120 ft long, it woulda had to have had at least a 25 ft diproportionate tail to balance out it's diproportionate spine, Talk later man.
I know this is a crazy theory and dont strike me down now, but I think that since Acro has a small sail, narrow jaws and straight teeth that Acro might have been a fisheater. I think it used the sail like a roder to steer in the water. The long teeth were used to pierce fish and the narrow jaws could have helped it to strike down on fish more precisely. The short range of the arms can be explained by that Acro held its arms at the surface and strook down with its claws on the fish.
07:52 "When it comes to deadly dinosaurs, Tyrannosaurus rex is the mega-beast by whitch all others are judged"
Thats damn right. Its like T.rex is the cheif of the Killer-Dino Army and he is the one that desides whitch to go into the army. I think he has chosed Allosaurus, Giganotosaurus, Spinosaurus, Acrocanthosaurus and Mapusaurus.
Are all the episodes of Mega-beast exagerated? I've only seen the Megalania one and that one was pretty decent, it was kind of cheessy with the implications of the end (if we go, giant lizards conquer the earth) but still fine.
@baa55555a Largest T. rex, Sue, 12.8m, Largest Acro, 11.7m,
All three specimens of Acro were 11.5-11.7m long,
T. rex has two at 12.8, one at 12.6, 2-3 at 12.2-12.4 and some 10+ at 11-12m.
I can't see how it's much of a fail, as far as we know almost 12m is what most adult Acrocanthosaurus were, and 12m was what most adult T. rex were. Yeah, they are wrong in saying Acrocanthosaurus was bigger, but in average they were both the same size.
I didn't know dinosaurs had nationalities. Where did they keep their passports and how the fuck did they get a passport? I wonder what swedish dinosaurs were like..
well t-rex was considered to be the king of the dinosaurs (much like how the typical lion is considered the king of animals in some countries), because it was very common. the acrocanthosaurus wasnt as common and was more native to texas. like they say, everything is bigger in texas, and so is this thing compared to the t-rex
@Gekis22 Well t-rex being a straight scavenger or even mostly a scavenger is just an old debunked theory with no evidence that implies for all large carnivorous dinos. Jack said it was a scavenger because he referenced to raptors, that would mean all large theropods were not hunters. He also said it was too slow due to its mass,20pmr is pretty fast for its size(giga and carch are about the same). There is solid evidence it did hunt for food and nothing of that
Eventually Jack claims all large theropods were just scavengers despite the impossibilities and lack of consistency.
It's nothing like the spino being a piscivore, it's strongly evident and with spino's ecosystem being a swampy, river flowing mangrove environment, it makes perfect sense especially with the weak jaws, spearing teeth, overly elongated snout and neck which were also very narrow and a delicate sail with its high up nostrils undeniable states spino was a dino built for fish.
@Gekis22 So what it comes down to is spino being a piscivore is strongly proven while t-rex scavenger theories are very inaccurate, has zero evidence and very contradictory to itself let alone impossible with extreme lack of constancy. It doesn't makes sense. See the major difference.
ovecourse T-rex a weakling even Spinosaurus and Acrocanthosaurus can beat this guy 1 vs 1...because size does not matter if u have a brain with massive weapons, u have to know what are ur weapons capable of.... while T-rex is dumb but only has a great eye sight, hearing and smelling....while Spino has big arms, bigger than T-rex , a sail that can change temperature and it is very fast and agile.. Acrocanthosaurus is very agile, jumps higher than T-rex, and very good at strategy killing.
@CrossfireN22 T-rex is not weak dumbass, it was more heavily built then these two theropods. It had jaws of mass destruction that can inflict catastrophic wounds on any dinosaur, including the most armored of them all, the ankylosaurs. It a cross fight scenario with a spinosaurus, all a t-rex would need to do was tackle it to the ground, which would cause an instant death to spinosaurus because its huge ass sail was connected to its spine, meaning if it was pushed to the ground,
@CrossfireN22 the sail/ vertebrae would have been smashed and the spino would have been fucked. On the other hand with the Acro, all the t-rex would have to do is grab the acro with its jaws and shank it back and forward, killing the acrocanthosaurus, though the trex would have had a bigger problem to deal with the acro then the gay ass spino due to its strong arms slashing at it. And for your fuckin information, Acro couldn't have probably even jump high due to its massive 4.5 ton body.
@boomertank67 why do people dont want to win Spinosaurus just because T-rex is famouse doesnt mean uve vote for him every battle...sometime people lose like dinosaur Spinosaurus has an advantage to kill T-rex and T-rex ha an advantage too, if this two big guys battle it would like armaggedon is coming :P..and if Spino can bit T-rex neck or slash his feet, face, belly ,arms Spino has an advantage if T-rex can bit Spino neck tightly Spino would die.. just to let u know that Spino can kill T-rex :P
@boomertank67 I suggest you what planet dinosaur - a quality BRITISH dinosaur documentary - SPINO WAS NO WEAKLING, also the whole falling over and breaking its back is bullshit. Acro was no pushover either, both could probably put a good fight up againts Trex
@indrajeet ok lets clear some things up, i have seen planet dinosaur. For the sake of anatomy, if the spinosaurus fell on it's spine it would brake it's back or die of a horrible infection to it's spinal fluids, thats scientifically proven. Also, a trex would win in a full out fight, how ever in a real life encounter the spino would use it's size to scare off the rex like it would any other predator, but if the trex was desperate or angry enough it would fight and beat a spinosaurus.
@natesdevices Where is it scientifically prooven? We don't know for certain if TREX would win afterall Spinosaurus was much bigger, had hormidable forearms, reach, height e.t.c. If you saw Dinosaur Planet, you would have heard about the Spinosaurus fossile that had more then half of on of its spines damaged in a fight??
@boomertank67 Uhm, you do relize that the Spino's arms were actually longer then acro's was? Also, the sail was not the actuall spine or vertebrae. Had the spino's sail got smashed it would either just have lost its "chick magnet" or its heat regulator (which ofc could have led it to death in time). Just cause bite or crush the sail you dont crush the neural cord. That lies in line within the spine on the back (just like on T-rex) and not in the sail
Um? you all do realize this is from the same guys who created "Monsters Resurrected: Spino" right? That this is from the SAME inaccurate and illogically exaggerated show was actually CANCELED for it, right? The very one that was known to be the worst imaginary documentary of all time that uses pretty much little to zero evidence and break the laws of physics.
Just saying to inform, acrocanthosaurus was nothing like this assassinating holly wood logic fantasy version.
@TopPhilosopher1 How could this be canceled for scientific inaccuracy when BBC's Walking With Dinosaurs was loaded to the brim with inaccuracies and yet it is still very beloved by people. I actually haven't seen any where online that is the reason why this show was canceled. I do agree some of their stuff is complete bs. The slamming a spino's claws into a car door comes to mind. What did that accomplish again? Did they use the same strength the living creature did when doing so? Never answered
@EvilCleric "Planet Dinosaurs" is actually the newest paleontology documentary and it's very logical, where did it go wrong? there wasn't a single exaggeration nor inaccurate info. They even used factual evidence to support their claim. It's actually bast on the strongest and logical perspectives of them
"Monster Resurrected" on the other hand uses little to zero evidence and is composed of the smallest theories if not their own imaginative assumptions. It's the main reason for its cancellation
@TopPhilosopher1 Haven't heard of Planet Dinosaurs. Mainly because I don't watch TV much any more. As for Monster Resurrected what were the largest fallacies they put forth? I keep thinking of how they keep treating megalania as just an upscaled komodo dragon right down to the point where they proposed it had venom glands like the komodo. To be perfectly honest them saying all the monitors were at least mildly venomous was stretching it for me. How do you miss something like that?
@EvilCleric This show was canceled half way due to its exaggerated inaccuracies supported by false outdated info that's actually contradictory to their entire info to no evidence at all, just imaginations on poor laws of physics breaking assumptions. They couldn't even get the reason why spino died out correctly and dramatized everything. Also their spino is at least 100ft in length.
Perhaps you should just look up "Planet Dinos" on YouTube for a more logical approach to understanding dinos.
@dayton3200 It's more real compared t their spino which made Jp look very logical but this itself is very inaccurate. For starters, the acrocanthosaurus hunting methods. Dino such as these hunted by inflicting fatal wounds with their sharp teeth then stepping back and follow them until they collapse not fight dinos head on or even remotely like this video. This is a complete dramatization by "Monster Resurrected" yet again. Let alone the extreme lack of consistency.
in a fight t-rex whould kick acracanthosaurus tail and i think that mostly because he could crush bone while acro whould braeake some teeth if he tryed. the arms of acro would only be useful if he could get t-rex down. still, surprises could happen, but if was a betting person i would bet on t-rex
Arcocanthosaurus was one of the kings of america with out a doubt. But it wasn't the king. Their is the Tyrannosaurus which is the only thing keeping it from becoming the king. But sadly they would never fight because the time difference they lived in. but still if they did meet That would be a pretty even match.
acrocanthosaurus was only slightly inferior to t.rex. it was only lighter an had slightly less stronger jaws. Otherwise I`d say acro could give t.rex a run for its money half the time
Acrocanthosaurs is a weakling just like spino, if something knocked them down the might roll over their fins(acrocanthosaurus has a fin 3 feet tall) and break their back and die.
Actually, T. rex did have to face prey much larger than itself. It turns out Alamosaurus, instead of being a little larger than T. rex, was the size of Argentinosaurus!
Weakling? They called Tyrannosaurus rex a WEAKLING? Yes it's arms were smaller but it's arms were smaller because it didn't need them. A single bite would be able to kill nearly anything it shared it's world with. And I seriously doubt Acrocanthosaurus would stand a chance against a triceratops, whereas I can easily see Tyrannosaurus taking down a Sauropod with a single bite to the neck.
Think of the bone-crushing bite of Tyrannosaurus, applied to the base of an Alamosaurus' neck. If it didn't kill the Sauropod outright, it wouldn't take more than a few hours for that crippling bite to take it's effect.
T-rex a "weakling" compared to Acro? BULLSHIT! In a fight, T-rex would easily win, it was bigger, heavier and had a much more powerfull jaws designed to crush bone! While Acro does have longer and much stronger arms, they would have been useless against T-rex, since they wouldn't be able to reach it due to the fact they could only move up and down 25 degrees. This would have been an easy win for T-rex in my opinion. However I do agree that Acro was a overall more efficient hunter.
a video is a video, we don't know who is better ; T- Rex or Acrocanthosaurus

I know this is a crazy theory and dont strike me down now, but I think that since Acro has a small sail, narrow jaws and straight teeth that Acro might have been a fisheater. I think it used the sail like a roder to steer in the water. The long teeth were used to pierce fish and the narrow jaws could have helped it to strike down on fish more precisely. The short range of the arms can be explained by that Acro held its arms at the surface and strook down with its claws on the fish.

Thats damn right. Its like T.rex is the cheif of the Killer-Dino Army and he is the one that desides whitch to go into the army. I think he has chosed Allosaurus, Giganotosaurus, Spinosaurus, Acrocanthosaurus and Mapusaurus.

@baa55555a Largest T. rex, Sue, 12.8m, Largest Acro, 11.7m,
All three specimens of Acro were 11.5-11.7m long,
T. rex has two at 12.8, one at 12.6, 2-3 at 12.2-12.4 and some 10+ at 11-12m.
I can't see how it's much of a fail, as far as we know almost 12m is what most adult Acrocanthosaurus were, and 12m was what most adult T. rex were. Yeah, they are wrong in saying Acrocanthosaurus was bigger, but in average they were both the same size.

EvilCleric 3 months ago
@Gekis22 Well t-rex being a straight scavenger or even mostly a scavenger is just an old debunked theory with no evidence that implies for all large carnivorous dinos. Jack said it was a scavenger because he referenced to raptors, that would mean all large theropods were not hunters. He also said it was too slow due to its mass,20pmr is pretty fast for its size(giga and carch are about the same). There is solid evidence it did hunt for food and nothing of that
elmersglue82 3 months ago
Eventually Jack claims all large theropods were just scavengers despite the impossibilities and lack of consistency.
It's nothing like the spino being a piscivore, it's strongly evident and with spino's ecosystem being a swampy, river flowing mangrove environment, it makes perfect sense especially with the weak jaws, spearing teeth, overly elongated snout and neck which were also very narrow and a delicate sail with its high up nostrils undeniable states spino was a dino built for fish.

@Gekis22 So what it comes down to is spino being a piscivore is strongly proven while t-rex scavenger theories are very inaccurate, has zero evidence and very contradictory to itself let alone impossible with extreme lack of constancy. It doesn't makes sense. See the major difference.

Acrocanthosaurus is very agile, jumps higher than T-rex, and very good at strategy killing.
CrossfireN22 4 months ago
@CrossfireN22 T-rex is not weak dumbass, it was more heavily built then these two theropods. It had jaws of mass destruction that can inflict catastrophic wounds on any dinosaur, including the most armored of them all, the ankylosaurs. It a cross fight scenario with a spinosaurus, all a t-rex would need to do was tackle it to the ground, which would cause an instant death to spinosaurus because its huge ass sail was connected to its spine, meaning if it was pushed to the ground,
boomertank67 4 months ago
@CrossfireN22 the sail/ vertebrae would have been smashed and the spino would have been fucked. On the other hand with the Acro, all the t-rex would have to do is grab the acro with its jaws and shank it back and forward, killing the acrocanthosaurus, though the trex would have had a bigger problem to deal with the acro then the gay ass spino due to its strong arms slashing at it. And for your fuckin information, Acro couldn't have probably even jump high due to its massive 4.5 ton body.

@indrajeet ok lets clear some things up, i have seen planet dinosaur. For the sake of anatomy, if the spinosaurus fell on it's spine it would brake it's back or die of a horrible infection to it's spinal fluids, thats scientifically proven. Also, a trex would win in a full out fight, how ever in a real life encounter the spino would use it's size to scare off the rex like it would any other predator, but if the trex was desperate or angry enough it would fight and beat a spinosaurus.

@natesdevices Where is it scientifically prooven? We don't know for certain if TREX would win afterall Spinosaurus was much bigger, had hormidable forearms, reach, height e.t.c.

indrajeet 1 month ago
@boomertank67 Uhm, you do relize that the Spino's arms were actually longer then acro's was? Also, the sail was not the actuall spine or vertebrae. Had the spino's sail got smashed it would either just have lost its "chick magnet" or its heat regulator (which ofc could have led it to death in time). Just cause bite or crush the sail you dont crush the neural cord. That lies in line within the spine on the back (just like on T-rex) and not in the sail

@TopPhilosopher1 How could this be canceled for scientific inaccuracy when BBC's Walking With Dinosaurs was loaded to the brim with inaccuracies and yet it is still very beloved by people. I actually haven't seen any where online that is the reason why this show was canceled. I do agree some of their stuff is complete bs. The slamming a spino's claws into a car door comes to mind. What did that accomplish again? Did they use the same strength the living creature did when doing so? Never answered

@EvilCleric "Planet Dinosaurs" is actually the newest paleontology documentary and it's very logical, where did it go wrong? there wasn't a single exaggeration nor inaccurate info. They even used factual evidence to support their claim. It's actually bast on the strongest and logical perspectives of them
"Monster Resurrected" on the other hand uses little to zero evidence and is composed of the smallest theories if not their own imaginative assumptions. It's the main reason for its cancellation

@TopPhilosopher1 Haven't heard of Planet Dinosaurs. Mainly because I don't watch TV much any more. As for Monster Resurrected what were the largest fallacies they put forth? I keep thinking of how they keep treating megalania as just an upscaled komodo dragon right down to the point where they proposed it had venom glands like the komodo. To be perfectly honest them saying all the monitors were at least mildly venomous was stretching it for me. How do you miss something like that?
EvilCleric 3 months ago
@EvilCleric This show was canceled half way due to its exaggerated inaccuracies supported by false outdated info that's actually contradictory to their entire info to no evidence at all, just imaginations on poor laws of physics breaking assumptions. They couldn't even get the reason why spino died out correctly and dramatized everything. Also their spino is at least 100ft in length.
Perhaps you should just look up "Planet Dinos" on YouTube for a more logical approach to understanding dinos.

Weakling? They called Tyrannosaurus rex a WEAKLING? Yes it's arms were smaller but it's arms were smaller because it didn't need them. A single bite would be able to kill nearly anything it shared it's world with. And I seriously doubt Acrocanthosaurus would stand a chance against a triceratops, whereas I can easily see Tyrannosaurus taking down a Sauropod with a single bite to the neck.

Think of the bone-crushing bite of Tyrannosaurus, applied to the base of an Alamosaurus' neck. If it didn't kill the Sauropod outright, it wouldn't take more than a few hours for that crippling bite to take it's effect.

T-rex a "weakling" compared to Acro? BULLSHIT! In a fight, T-rex would easily win, it was bigger, heavier and had a much more powerfull jaws designed to crush bone! While Acro does have longer and much stronger arms, they would have been useless against T-rex, since they wouldn't be able to reach it due to the fact they could only move up and down 25 degrees. This would have been an easy win for T-rex in my opinion. However I do agree that Acro was a overall more efficient hunter.
