How Scientifically Accurate is the Jurassic World MOSASAURUS? 

Hello everybody! First off, I've finally linked all of my sources, including the test footage from Fallen Kingdom I used for scaling the Jurassic World Mosasaurus. However, be mindful that some sources I used may not be accessible to the public, and I'm happy to clarify anything on my discord server. I would like to thank you all for the support and overall positive reception of the first full scale animation for the channel! It really means the world to me and I'm excited ti make more animated videos going forward. In terms of the subjects I would like to cover, and the reasoning behind the new channel name "Nature's Compendium," I would like to encompass a variety of subjects pertaining to the natural world and the history of life on earth. My main focus will be on the evolution of certain animals, marine biology, tropical rainforest ecology, and reconstructing lesser known prehistoric ecosystems like the Pisco formation. While "How Scientifically Accurate" is not going to be a focal point of the channel, I will continue to produce them alongside the main animation projects I hope to create. Lastly, while the general reception of this video has been very positive, I am still grateful and appreciative of all constructive criticism. One of the most frequently brought up points is how the audio balance with background music and sound effects was distracting and too loud in certain parts. I will be sure to address this in future videos and be more mindful when working on the SFX design. Again thank you all for watching and I hope you look forward to the future of the channel! The next animation video is going to be on Sperm Whales, so stay tuned! 🐳🐳🐳

The Mosasaurus in Jurassic World is twice as big as an IRL mosasaurus. My guess is that the reason the creators went with this feature was because if the Mosasaurus was accurately sized, it would not be able to drag the Indominus down into the aquarium.

WatchMojo : hEY DiD yOU kNoW tHAt MoSASaurUs iSNt AcTUaLlY a DINosaUR? Nature Compendium: *Spits literal, accurate, and actually significant facts that actually teaches the audience something useful* Thank you for actually giving me knowledge I never knew about one of my favorite animals

My heart sank when I saw the colossal mosasaur in Jurassic world. I knew a lot of kids would be disappointed when learning about the actual size of the animal. Similarly to liopleurodon from Walking With Dinosaurs.

Great video man! Love the animation style too!

It honestly looks a lot like a whale mixed with a Komodo Dragon. Very interesting stuff

I have a theory that the Jurassic world scientists made the mosasaur bigger by editing its dna because they created indominus Rex to have new big things for people to gape at

Oh, my! A new How Scientifically Accurate! I've been waiting AGES for this.

Everybody gangsta until a scuba diver sees a “mosasaur fossil” and goes down to find an actual mosasaur

I love everything about this video but the gator sounds are a bit distracting.

I love how accurate this is. We need more of this.

I would've guessed it included asian water monitor lizard (Varanus Salvatop) DNA, rather that komodo dragon DNA. The colors are very similar, and it could've helped explain why the flippers are used to aid in propulsion.

Eyyyyy this series is back, finally!!!! EDIT: love the Tierzoo Reference

I've heard that for the Mosasaurus, the size would change depending on the shot.

yo great video man. it must have taken you forever to edit. keep up the great work I love this video!!!

Really good video, I love how you highlight all the inaccuracies including the small details and the animation is really nice too, you deserve more subscribers ,your content is awesome! PD: Would you do a video about the inaccuracies of the JP3 spino?

Awesome Mosasaur grunts

Yeah people. We might be a small country, but we first discovered the goddamn mosasaur. Lets go Netherlands

Hey, it's got a tail fluke, a little one. Glad to see this series back. Tell you what, it's oversized so it's inaccurate, but if you think about it, this is an animal was a theme park attraction. Id argue that making it huge is actually contextually more realistic and would not be be that difficult to accomplish genetically speaking. And who knows, may be a bit of shastasaurus DNA

Dam worth the wait love all the little details in the background and I have to say your mosasaur design is becoming quite an iconic look.

while I was really disappointed to discover how small the real thing was, any inaccuracies are explained by cloning (like how Rexy is still alive or how all the raptors look different) so they're excused. I love your DNA suggestions and I didn't know about the calls, that's cool!

Was that a TierZoo reference that I see! Great vid

As much as I like your old scientifically accurate Jurassic World videos, this has to be the biggest improvement in the channel ever. Hats off to you, your video is not well done but expertly crafted. I indeed mean that. Mosasaurus is one of my favorite non-dinosaurs during the Mesozoic because of one of my favorite movies, Jurassic World. It's indeed nice to compare the JW Mosasaurus to the real one but what makes it better is the animation. It's indeed great and there's really good details in the video. Hope you will continue your career m8! It's nice to see a return. I would like to support you on Patreon but I don't have an account yet. But hope life is goin great for you, chap!

Mosasaurs most definitely had forked tongue. They were in the Claude of lizards toxicofera, which all have forked tongue, including even the iguanas. And considering Mosasaurs were very closely related to snakes, they definitely had tongue split at the end.

Jurassic World Admins - ' reality is often disappointing , but now reality can be whatever I want "

I am so happy to these videos again after so long. The animation and facts were superb and I'm excited to see where these go within the Jurassic series. Have a blessed day.

Great video, and I appreciate how you were respectful of the Mosasaurus from JW, not just saying "It's inaccurate" like other youtubers.

How don't you have much more sucribers becauss the work you put in this videos deserves hundreds suscribers by its own

2:28 Prehistoric Kingdom easter egg

Good And Really Accurate Video Keep It Up!!BTW This Is So Accurate It Should Be A Popular Documentary!

The JW Mosasaurus does appear to be within the range of 60 to 70 feet in the first movie, it's just that in the sequel it inexplicably turned kaiju-size (likely due to lazy filmmaking not paying attention to continuity).

I'm here from the Ben G Thomas channel. Liked, Subbed, followed. Awesome video! Glad I'm here

This was your best work yet, it’s clear by watching how hard you worked on it I can’t wait to see your future work 😊

lol the phrehistoric kingdom parking lot thank you

Welldone jack Amazing job on this beautiful peice each little animation on the animals is realistic and beautiful not to mention the accuracy and beauty of the art an all around gorgeous peice and it was definitely worth the time and patience put into it.

Awesome vid! The quality of the animation and the accuracy of the data is really nice. The Tier Zoo reference was also pretty cool.

Bro I can’t wait for more videos!!! You know so much and it’s on point it’s a channel I never knew I needed!

Good to see this channel again, and not only that but the scientifically accurate series.

awesome video!

Great Job on this new video, it was worth the wait and it's good to see how you are improving.

Woah dude. You are about to blow up. This was an amazing video! Thank you for all the hard work you guys

I forgot this existed but I'm glad its back lol

This is so well produced! Well done 👍🏼

You should totally make a series out of this. It was very well made with lots of effort put into it. You did a great job, keep up the great work

I love RU-vidrs that are scientific but are also making it fun with animation

Finally Been waiting for more of your content keep it up

Welcome back. Love the smooth animation

This is a really great video! Beautiful animations, and very informative! Can’t wait to see more! ☺️

Dude,I'm more fascinated by the animation and art than the science, cause those animations and drawings are the coolest thing ever! Just the details on the animals are incredible for such a cartoony art style! Great job.

Yes! Finally you did this again:) Nice work!

This video includes beautiful artwork and animations and is very informative! I hope to see more of that in the future! You definitly earned my subscription.

Very well made! Your art and animations are excellent!

if i saw a mosasaurus in real life i would actually pass out and hope it eats me while i’m unconscious so i don’t notice..... wait.... when you die, would it be like... falling asleep forever? think about it.... you pass out before dying, you wouldn’t know you died, but you couldn’t know you died... what would your consciousness do

Execellent video dude!!! Keep the good work

I love this video :D, nice work on it

I've only seen the still images of your work on discord. Now seeing them animated is just outstanding. This style of yours is incredible, and I can't wait to see what else you produce. Keep up the great work, my dude

Oh my god. With the animation, details and accuracies, you deserve so many more views and subscribers!

Thank's NC! It's been a long time I haven't been watching these.

The art style, the content… it’s all amazing! This is the first video I just saw from you and I’ve already subscribed! Very good content!

wow, you put a lot of work into this video, subscribed. cant wait for the next video!

This was worth the long wait!

5:27 totally reminds me of TierZoo!

Thanks for the excellent content. Hoping to see more videos like this from you in the future! :)

Good video man, nice work !

Great video, looking forward to more content!

This is why I subbed I am glad I stayed

Amazing video! I really missed them and I was upset you deleted the other ones. But I guess now I know why you did 👏🏼👏🏼

Super cool and interesting video and animation style! Can't wait to see more!

Yes, it’s scientifically continued

These analyzes are evolving along a good narrative and explanatory path.

Awesome video! Good animations and many facts

Nice video! Can’t wait for what’s coming next

This was a really good video! Seen a mosa fossil that was 10 metres at Cardiff natural history museum

My first thought when I saw it in fallen kingdom, was that they had used DNA from crocodile. That would also explain how it could survive so long without a steady supply of food, since crocodiles can hibernate or go dormant for longer periodes.

Outstanding graphics Fahim! Love your use of print screen patterns on the backgrounds.

really enjoyed this video! awesome art too

This video was worth the wait.

I missed your videos, your teasers seemed interesting. Hope the new videos will be as good

Great video bro! I love this series

Amazingly done. Keep up the good work!

Nice animation.

Nothing to say but always amazing video with accuracy

I love channels like these! Subbed!

I just found your channel and im just gonna say your editing is amazing and keep up the good work

Real life, fantasy movie, either way I'm glad they're long gone.

Like the new direction you’re going

I really enjoyed this video! Keep it up!

Such a fantastic vid! Obvious so much care and effort put into it

Superb animation work, my dude! And I like how the video is structured too. And to all the folks preparing to spam the "Jurassic World isn't mean to be accurate because they're not real dinosaurs" line, I will mention again that since they are using the real taxonomic names of the animals, they are not exempt from criticism. I'm not even touching on the fact that the "Genetically engineered" excuse is super vague and hand-wavy anyway.

This was pretty good!

Your animations are amazing. Especially like the organic approach to texturing.

This channel is so underrated! Thank you for all the information.

That stat-chart gives me some really TierZoo vibes 10/10

This is fascinating! I am incredibly fond of the comic book feel combined with some science!

Awesome video! You really did a good job

Nice to see this series of videos again, and with Mosasaurus this time. I really love how designed the countershading on the creature, including the little marks between the top and bottom halves of the body.

“Nothing in Jurassic world is natural” as Dr wu once said

1:23 I think you meant toxicoferans, not "toxiferans"? 1:40 You misspelled Aigialosaurus. 5:26 What are the five stats? 8:06 You misspelled pseudo. The lack of a forked tongue is another inaccuracy that could be considered major. Great video and production value! You've come a long way since the first PK update vid and JWFK Carnotaurus video! Looking forward to what you have in store for the future! :)

This is an awesome video! So well researched but I like that you didn't take it too seriously.

Amazing channel and animation! Keep up the good work.
