It doesn't make sense when you think of the amount of food that would be required to sustain just one T-rex let alone an entire colony. Almost all of their prey would be extinct within months or a few years...
You’ve convinced me. I also no longer think that elephants or whales are real.

I've never seen a whale and I've lived close to the great lakes my entire life.
Everything was bigger back then. Why? A lot more oxygen in the atmosphere. Today, there's about 20% oxygen in what we call breathable air. But back then? Probably around 69%*
Anyway, hope you learned something today, Jawan.
*Not entirely sure about this but I think it's true
69% ? The world would have burned up. In ye olde daze O2 would have been 30-35%, CO2 about
Everything was bigger 65 million years ago. Bigger bugs, bigger plants, bigger trees, bigger prey, bigger predators. Bigger everything
Haven't you ever seen that simpsons episode where Homer goes back in time and the dragonflies are the size of his head?

I think oxygen was 26 percent back then compared to 21 percent today. Still a meaningful difference.
Most estimates fall between 30-35% O2. CO2 would have been 6000ppm (0.06% CO2 compare to 400ppm (0.004% today)

Great question. The same goes for BigFoot. If BigFoot exists, it would need tons of food all the time to sustain itself. We would see carcasses laying around on the forest trails and mountainsides.
There were huge forests of ferns during the Jurassic. Plant eaters grew to giant sizes and a single kill of a plant eater could probably take care of a T-Rex calorie wise for a week. 4 kills a month was enough to sustain them. Pus T-Rex also ate already dead animals, he scavenged as well as hunted.
If I recall correctly, plants grew to large sizes because the air was more beneficial for their growth (higher level of carbon dioxide?)
Thanks for posting. This was a jaw-dropping video. I've never seen a tin-foil hat theory presented so well. I had to look this guy up. Of course, he's wrong and he omits facts that blow up his theory, but it's sobering to see how well someone can take a nut job theory and make it seem plausible.
He missed his calling. He should have been a politician.

Why am I so uncontrollably compelled to read these types of threads? And somewhere in here, there is a post about how oxygen levels affect everything's size and I'm like, wow! Then it's like, dinosaur bones were planted by the illuminati and I'm like, wow, what does the internet say about that? And then it's all like, deep state and Trump will expose it all and Obama was actually an AI bionic being who operates on a fuel consisting of male euphoria and female sorrow and I'm like, hey, wait a second, how did I get here?
This internet thing, who could live without it at this point?

Dinosaurs are a mixture of birds and reptile physiology. It’s highly likely something like T. rex could shut its body down and go without eating for months. But when time came , a T. rex could warm its body up for survival or for a hunt. If T Rex’s had to eat a plant eater once a week they would probably go extinct, because then there would be nothing around.

Plants grew the same size , maybe even smaller than what we have today. We do have massive trees after all. You are also thinking of the Carboniferous period, which had bugs and amphibians, no Dino’s yet. Dinosaurs ruled the earth because humans weren’t around. Forests existed all over the world and nothing could challenge the Dino’s, and had a meteor never crashed it would have probably stayed that way until the end of Earth.
I dated a Mormon girl once and she legit believed that dinosaurs weren’t real and that someone went around planting all of the bones and fossils for people to find. Like who has the time for that?
