@@IKnowImGayWhenISayThisBut yes, actually. Those Jurassic park roars are most definitely not what dinosaurs actually sounded like. It’s just to make them more intimidating, for effect! (Like,, you should see how they make American bald eagles sound like in movies and then listen to their actual noises,,, it’s just like that!) but anyways based on research, it’s said that dinosaurs most likely made noises just like this!
It almost sounds like deep clucking! I'd love to know if any of the ancient theropods crowed like a rooster? Or even a "Pok pok .. pok .. p'KAHHHGH!!!!!! Why are my arms so tiny!!!!"
Yeah, this could shake the entire forest nearby. Of course, this is a GOOD thing - if it's making sounds you know where it is, and other predators would be getting the hell out of dodge. (You of course should, too) But I imagine when it's stalking prey, it's much quieter, and you are fucked if it sees you.
Being around 8 to 10 tons, the Tyrannosaurus rex would have sounded a lot deeper that this bird, maybe so low that we would feel it rather than hear it
@@sunny.potato u do know how desperate these modern day velociraptors are right? They rarely stop an attack before the enemy is defeated, it Will Just wait for u
i even heard it with my Sony XM5's, but my Mackie CR3 speakers fail to reproduce the second recording. (and here i thought those speakers were bassy, guess i was wrong)
As someone who’s absolutely obsessed with paleontology, I love listening to these giant land-dwelling birds with non-syrinx voice boxes like emus and cassowaries and imagining I’m in a Cretaceous rainforest surrounded by meandering theropods like tyrannosaurus lol
@@sarab3888 well for starters, they are as tall as some of the tallest MBA players and can outrun Usain Bolt, also weighs 2 to 3 times more. Their kicks are not inferior to the stabs of a spear and their claws are used by local tribesman to make ceremonial daggers. In short, if you aren't armed with a long reaching weapon like a spear and hit it without getting hit back, hope it isn't in mating season or have childrens, or else you are fucked. Their kicks can stab you to death, there are known cases, albeit extremely rare due to them being quite near extinct anyway.
The rumble is about 23 hz, at the very edge of what humans can hear, if you can't hear it, play it a 2x speed it changes the pitch just enough you may hear it
Oh wow. Great tip thanks. Thought l HAD heard it but, took your advice and listened again at 2X. Realised l HADN'T heard it all, then listened again at 1X when l knew what to listen for and did manage to just hear it.
I experienced this in person one time and I can’t explain how otherworldly it felt. Legit felt like something was wrong in my bones and my rib cage was rattling! Then I thought it was some giant helicopter or something taking off in the distance until we realized it was the cassowary like 15ft from us at the zoo. UNREAL
i love how cassowarys sound and are like modern dinosaurs, if you think about it this is probably how some dinosaurs sounded in the past. (also the cassowary looks like and takes the form of a gallimimus)
@@ashash6866 chickens are not decendants of t-rexes, birds separated from other non-avian dinosaurs about 180 million years ago and t rexes showed up in the fossile record about 90 million years ago
i like the sound of the other birds, they all sound fascinating, some of them sound mesmerizingly beautiful where I could listen to them on repeat and feel happy
I FEEL that with headphones. For me, I couldn't quite catch the second one until I put them on. Even with these, the call resonates within my bones. That is terrifying, and I love it.
To think scientists believe cassowaries were raised by ancient humans thousands of years ago talk about some tough cave dwellers. I've gone to aviaries and seen those birds and they are just really amazing and totally prehistoric looking and the sound there I can't help but really like that sound. 🚨
I was actually bikepacking through Cassuary habitat yesterday when I heard that low rumbling, it felt very unnerving and threatening. At first I thought it might be a wild boar, but then I listened to this and I know why the sound froze me for a few seconds. Pretty impressive
Went to a zoo with emu's, they weren't fenced and one started growling like in this vid really deep so stepped at it to make it back of but it just came towards me and the kids and the growl got really deep you could feel it through your body ,nothing I've ever heard before ....in the end I opened up the umbrella I had and turned it sideways to keep distance
It's crazy to think that on some levels we are still living amongst dinosaurs today. All be it very much evolved for today's day and age, the animals around us give us such a huge insight on the animals that roamed our planet millions of years ago. It's beautiful and terrifying all at the same time.
And a Cassowary could still disembowel you just like a Velociraptor from Jurassic Park. They are apparently very dangerous and ill tempered. A flying kick from a Cassowary would split your abdomen apart, and your guts would spill on to the floor. If that isn't dinosaur like, then I don't know what is.
This goddamn dinosaur sounds as damn terrifying as it looks, and I LOVE IT for that. It’s my favorite of the flightless birds, but holy hell would my soul leave my body if I ever heard these sounds, let alone saw one.
Those low rumbles are nightmare fuel and that's not even the scariest rumble they make. Just found out about these birds and had no idea how dangerous they are. I read that their kick is 3x as powerful as a heavyweight fighter and the center claw is 4+ inches long and can disembowel a person.
Now imagine yourself in a forest 68 million years ago, you feel a vibration in your chest (like you would feel a bass in a setting with live music), you have no idea why you feel it or where it’s coming from, but it sees you. This dinosaur is said to have vision way better than an eagle (the whole don’t move and it won’t see you is bogus), it sees you, and you’re not only feeling a vibration in your chest, but also under your feet as it gets closer. You start to see a shape, then a silhouette, then you make out what that silhouette is, it’s a T-Rex, and now you’re 50 feet in front of it, and you hear sounds of other dinos, the wind blowing through leaves, and the air coming out of Rexy’s nose. It makes more closed mouth vocalization, then it walks away because you’re not seen as a threat
Ah man. Been a while since i heard this, it's just unbelievable. Though in real, it's more audible than this for some reason. I guess that it's combined with a pissed off cassowary that does the trick. But thanks for the amazing recording!
What is it about ratites and making some of the most foreboding sounds known to the animal kingdom? This is what I imagine a Utahraptor or Tyrannosaurus sounding like!
