Bakker looks like the scientist from Juraissic Park. :D Thats funny. xD He just needs the same glasses.

This is incredible! You can actually see conifer branches/needles,etc chopped up in the digestive process. Not to mention how it's insides are laid out,the changes in skin texture from the lower legs to the upper body. This has got to be the find if all times!

Wow, incredible. You can see it's crop. How it held its head and its shoulders. Ive never seen such a complete picture.

its still a mummy because the sand made imprints of the skin like a leaf on cement
Dr. Bakker is one of the best speakers in the buisiness.

Bakker says a definition. But in archeology a mummy is just bones and soft tissue stand together by some human technic or, in very special circumstances, natural causes (in caves, for example). The Leonardo is a mummy in paleontological sense: there are diagenetic process (which lead to fossilization of a dead organism) that will replace organic matter by minerals, preserving the form of hard and, in very special circumstances, soft tissue.
