For the T-Rex sound effect, I've also heard that they used a bit of dry ice on metal, which is freakin awesome btw. We did it once in a percussion masterclass with a block of dry ice and an anvil. Very Jurrasic Park.
Gators can "roar" or at least make very intimidating jurassic-park t-rexesque noises, just saying. Check out this video of one roaring at a guy using a power drill... ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-Y6HBHWzxL0Y.html&ab_channel=LawrenceBranch ...So I'd like to think everyones favorite idea of t-rex noises might not be so far off
Even if a Tyrannosaur's hide were too thick for common firearms, its eyes would still be nice and squishy. A round of buckshot for each and you've got one big blind multi-ton dinosaur that'll kill itself when it falls over from the shock of being stricken blind.
Not sure how scientifically accurate this was, but in my Carnivores 2 computer game that was the only way to kill a Rex. Even with the most powerful weapon if you did not get a clean shot in their eye you dead son. With their powerful sense of smell and hearing it was near impossible to get close enough to one to do so with anything other than the sniper rifle.
Jonathan Spier, good point about the heart, but we don't know how well it was defended. It will be risky if you don't have something like 50bmg. The skin and bone on the other hand, will be much easier I think.
We don't have disagreement here. I think a .300 is powerful enough to kill t-rex. I'd feel safer if I shoot it from far far away, with a 50cal sniper rifle, since we don't really know how hard/easy our rifle round has to deal with. A more practical option, would be a semi-auto hunting rifle (300 or 308 would be fine). If you go for more robust option, an old M14 (or similar) should do nicely. Shoot t-rex knee, would be a good target (given the size of the target and as long as you hit, you disable t-rex). For the size of t-rex, it won't be able to move with only one leg. Anyway, we are talking about how to deal with fictional t-rex here, all firearm is available option (if was asked to hunt down t-rex, I'd ask nothing short of heavily armored APC, couple of 50cal semi-auto rifle, couple of back up semi-auto 7.62mm rifle, couple of big handgun, couple of full auto AK47, 1000s and 1000s of bullets, and explosive).
Well we could take the scene from "The Lost World" when the Buck was shot with the tranquilizer in the neck. The Hunter wanted to use some form of large round to kill the male only to find blanks or empty shells. So not knowing much about firearms or their ammo, what kind was that? Also the Tranque dart was long enough to pierce his skin. So there is that as well.
Imagine the interaction between Dr. Wu and Hammond. "Why is it clucking...?" "It appears to be it's natural response to food, Mr. Hammond." "Yes, I can see it, but why clucking!" "I don't f--?' "Make it roar, Henry! ROAR!" "You want me to change a genetic make-up which we have recreated almost perfectly... To make it louder? ...on it...!! Somebody get me a baby elephant, an alligator and a tiger! Because Science!"
"What's... are those colorful feathers?" "Yes, that's its natural appearance, Mr. Hammond." "People don't want to see big birds, Henry." "But that's how they--" "Remove them!! And the colors too, all of them!"
Hammond: "Why are these raptors and T-rexes just sitting around in their cages...? They look completely disinterested in the guests!" Wu: "They are predators, sir. But they have their own niche. They don't see us as prey. They don't think we're worth the effort." Hammond: "Oh hell, so now we have predators that are boring. How can predators be boring! Make them interested, Henry!" Wu: "You want the predators to be interested in the guests?" Hammond: "Yes of course!" Wu: "I foresee no potential problems with this request." *all of the jurassic movies happen*
Henry: Screw this, I'm gonna become a money hungry mad scientist. Make my own park, with scientifically responsible affronts to the natural order, hookers, and Blackjack!
Had to point one thing out about birds. crows are attracted to shiny things they have caused fires because they see a cigarette butt on the ground that was still lit and fly it back to the nest so technically you can distract the T-Rex with a shiny things of sorts. But that's assuming the T-Rex acts like a crow.
Straight Sith Male I think that might be intelligence related... I'm sure a Trex's brain is far larger than a crow... Either way, crows are scavengers, Rex is a hunter. I think it's safe to assume they behave differently.
@@mar_speedman size of brain doesn't matter , the ratio of the brain to the body does. Also some scientists say t rexes were scavengers and active hunters.
There's something you should remember. Whenever someone points out that you're now breathing manually, has to breathe manually himself. It's a double-edged weapon.
Just to clarify: when you say 'velociraptor' do you mean the ones from the movies (modelled on deinonychus) or the real, turkey sized velociraptors? Because a 40mph turkey is pretty darned impressive.
The turkey ones. The Film ones, aka Deinonychus are much slower with an estimated 10 klm/h walking speed( couldnt find a reference for running speed though).
You should have been cast as Beast in Disneys Beauty and the Beast. Despite him not being a lion, you are exactly what my fantasy depicts as a human version of a lion. Walking art. Just beautiful
It's dark, rain falls from the sky. You're stranded on a tropical island surrounded by prehistoric monsters. The ground shakes, you look up, in the distance you see a massive beast, it's looking at you. As it approaches you hear a blood cuddling growl 9:24 it starts to run toward you, it opens it's mouth and screams a deathly roar 18:51
Nightcore Fusion - I'm way way older than you and I can hit the send button on reflex alone. I don't even have to look or anything. Then again, if your not the type of person that texts very often, then your probably not the type of teen Kyle was refering to.
What are your chances of being swallowed alive and intact by a Tyrannosaur and being able to snake through its intestines and pop out its bunghole like what Will Ferrel did in Land of the lost?
KYCrusher1. It won't immediately digest you You have a couple of hours at the most, replace the rex with a shark or a snake, you'd have days, if you don't suffocate
You have about 60 seconds to get out the other side, by that time, if you've made it, you'll be winded, hurting from the burning stomach acid you dived into, and the T Rex will probably eat you again. The only way the Land of the Lost Scenario is fulfilled, is if it poops you... bring a breather. Because you'll probably suffocate otherwise, and if you don't, you'll probably wish you were... Not that I understand how a nut brained (giant prehistoric nut) dino would be fooled into thinking you're poop because you smell like poop.
There was a study of dino movements/speed of a T-Rex and a Triceratops. Because a Triceratops has their center of gravity is closer and more compact to the ground than that of a T-Rex, you wouldn't have to outrun a T-Rex, just out maneuver it by making a series of sharp turns, since the T-Rex has its head and tail so far away from its hips/pivot point.
If a T. Rex's footfalls cause energy to be dissipated mostly by surface waves then (once you're far enough from the source to ignore the thickness of the "surface") then the energy would be inverse linear rather than inverse square - spread over the circumference of a circle rather than the surface of a sphere. It's only when the energy can spread in all 3 dimensions that it's inverse square. Of course, inverse linear decay is slower than inverse square, so if inverse square still ripples your coffee, inverse linear definitely will.
21:22 I am going through a few things, yeah. I’m trying to keep my head up and helping others out where I can since it helps cheer me up to see them smile. Thanks Kyle. Even though you’ll probably never read this.
Why are you defensive about the way you sit? Looks totally fine to me..internet trollZ messing with ya? Lil fellas can get to ya for sure. You’re a rock climbing Thor tho, you>them.
I think he meant he was sitting with a defensive posture and therefore feeling defensive about the thing he was discussing between all the hours of saying the same lines in the same voice over and over again.
9:12 There's a cool theory on DangerVille's channel that T-Rex made a sort of guttural sound that would give off a sense of presence that you wouldn't so much hear as you would *feel* .
If you ever make a follow up to the follow up, keep in mind that when you impersonated the T.rex towards the end, you held your arms looking downwards, but dinosaurs couldn't pronate their arms, so you should've held them facing each other.
I kinda get the thinking behind the "hugging the leg" thing though on the T-Rex, just taking into account the anatomical limitations of the T-Rex (it didn't have a "waist" to bend over or long enough fore-limbs to "touch it's toes"). But then again, them legs would be like tree trunks.... I don't think ANY human would have the arm wing-span or strength to effectively bear hug a T-Rex leg and hang on for dear life while it stomps around. I imagine it would kinda be like holding onto the end of an excavator arm just above the bucket while someone jerks around the controls violently.
Kyle is not the Void itself, he is simply OF the Void. He is a construct, a reflection of our collective thoughts projected back to us by that boundless, shapeless space. He is an amalgamation, a collective being formed from the combination of our perceptions of what the ideal science communicator host entity would look and act like. As the audience grows, Kyle's realism is enhanced, as evidenced by his general awkward discomfort in the early days, and his growing competence as time goes on. Even his appearance has changed over time to better fit the zeitgeist of how we view the idealized nerd. He is a tulpa, a being created by collective thought energy, the avatar of our nerdiness. The Void merely facilitates his manifestation.
Just some food for thought on the thickness of the T-rex's skin vs. Katana: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-glz91VZcjJo.html It's not a katana, but it is a bow and arrow (of which, if you've seen the draw strength on some bows you know how powerful they are), so the possibility that a Katana swing will not cut through the flesh to get at the essential arteries is a possibility. (There is a slight chance the katana will break, as katanas are known for sharpness but are also easier to dull or break.) That said flesh around a joint tends to be different than flesh around the rest of the body. If you feel your elbow, for example, you can easily feel the bone protruding out. If you feel along your bicep however, the amount of flesh covering it should prevent you from feeling any bone. This is just food for thought, not saying it won't cut through, but I could see it going either way.
Dr. Void says "good day to you Sir!" I laughed so so hard 😂 That should be your mutant code name. Because it's epic. Also does the Chaos Theory affect the void? -KaosofNox
I saw a documentary that featured that dinosaurs could possibly use low frequencys we cant even hear. crocodiles and alligators do that. their frequencys are so low that we cant hear them and all we hear are the highest peaks - the gurgling. so we would not hear a lot of what a rex is actually saying.
Theres a video bouncing around youtube somewhere that goes over the sound a T-rex would make. Apparently it had great hearing, and it's vocalizations were very low, almost like that first base note from the Jaws theme. just much much lower. if you can imagine that.
Dang you’re so funny and so much fun to watch I wouldn’t need to be mentioned for a thought provoking comment, just mentioning my name would be enough to make me happy. Keep up the good work man I love your channel.
I'm no physicist, but the idea that you hug its leg may work, the tyrannosaurus Rex's center of gravity would shift as it bends over, so the dinosaur might actually fall. The only problem that I see is, if the dinosaur falls, it may land on you (which is no bueno) and if he ignored you, what if he laid down to go to sleep or something and as he moves his legs down you get crushed between the dinosaur's feet and torso? If I seen a T-Rex I would much rather go for this option than trying to outrun it, since their stride is so long, they could catch you pretty easily, their speed may be 11 MPH but I don't think it accounts for their stride, and even if it does, you would need to be in front of the dinosaur in order to keep running, if you are under the dinosaur and start running as soon as you start running, you would have to go 0-11 in a matter of miliseconds otherwise as soon as you reach the head of the dinosaur while running he eats you, as long as the dinosaur doesn't suprise you and you see them coming you can run, otherwise I would hug it's leg. (If I had a tripwire, I wouldn't set it up to trip, I would pull the move straight from "Star Wars: The Empire Strikes Back")
I think the Screw Attack's Death Battle did calculations on how COLD would an attack have to be in order to freeze an enemy in seconds and if I remember correctly it's below Sub-Zero . (Don't quote me on this I don't even remember what Death Battle that was , maybe Killer Instinct related ? -I don't know.)
Well we do have Ostriches and Emus, as well as Andean Condors, Cinerous Vultures, and Harpy Eagles. Since we now know the Tyrannosaurus Rex is more bird than reptile if we mash the sounds they make together and amplify it and adjust frequency range for T-Rex size that sound might be much more accurate. Might have to adjust for lack of beak but maybe not. Although Dinosaurs might never be cloned without time travel it might be possible to bring back Moas, which were bigger than Ostriches and Emus, add their sounds into the mix might also help.
21:24 This has been my philosophy for most of my adult life. Be nice to strangers, because you never know if someone is already having the worst day of their life before your lives intersect. It's better to regret being nice to some monster who steals people's kidneys for the black market than to realize you were an impatient jerk to some guy who just found out his only child had terminal cancer. Default mode for social interactions should be cordiality, at a minimum.
I know you'll do the maths, and that's what makes this channel great, but I think with that axe the answer goes from "because science" to "because magic".
Omg! I hope the opening fact about the Eiffel tower is true! and just to add, your delivery of the idea to hug the T. rex until it stops made me laugh out loud! :D Edit: Major props to Steph and her science!
with the velociraptor speed, it depends on whether you're talking about velociraptor mongoliensis or deinonychus. i dont know which would be faster but the velociraptors in jurassic park are more based off of deinonychus
