A beautiful animatronic! Even if it is inaccurate, the time and work gone into this is incredible! Looks like it's a Jurassic Park Velociraptor, very cool. For people wondering why Jurassic Park Velociraptors are so inaccurate, the book was probably made when dinosaurs weren't believed to have feathers. Plus it states in the books that the Velociraptors are changed to look meaner and bigger to thrill guests.
Acylast :) I did research on it all because I was curious! I've actually found out more as well. The time period for the books was like the 90s, where scaley, reptile like dinosaurs were the norm. It states in the books that they had feathers but since they wanted to entertain the guests and give them what they wanted, they modified the dinosaurs! Sorry for the extra tidbit, I just alwats get excited when I see some one with the same opinion as me :)
@@nolanpenn8428 Interesting! I didn't know any of this. Thank you for sharing :) Unfortunately, this won't stop the ridiculous hate on the movies. People need to do more research, including myself apparently :)
To all those complaining about the size & plumage inaccuracies: By "Life-like" I'm pretty sure they meant "looks like it's living", not "scientifically accurate". Just appreciate the animatronic fellas. If they were claiming it to be scientifically accurate then it'd be a different situation, but it's literally just made to look cool.
Ardhityo B Ha, "scientists". Chances are they're just people who know a little more about dinosaurs than the average joe and thus think they're entitled to tear down someone's hard work just because it's inaccurate. The video never claimed that it would be accurate, but they just shove their opinions down the creators' throats anyway. Just because they're correct doesn't give them some special right to be an asshole.
@@peeblekitty5780 i know right, these "hurr i know a little bit of something so i'm gonna tell everyone about how smart i am hurr hurr" people. Bunch of party pooper
A velociraptor was actually the size of a domesticated Turkey. Only beng 3ft tall, 6ft long. Most of the length came from its tail. Weighing 20 - 30 lbs full grown. This "velociraptor" they created is most likely for Jurassic Park / World. The finished touch reminds me of Echo from Jurassic World. Standing 6ft tall, 13ft long.
We know all the time and effort and time they put into these works of art,but it’s just not accurate and some people enjoy studying these avian creatures
@@papakhan2460 it's pretty much a dick move to use an inaccurate model for a MUSEUM, it just spreads the mindset that raptors look like naked lizard crackheads.
Okay, I wouldn't say life-like due to no feathers on it ... but it definitely looks 100% alive. Mechanically they did a brilliant job. It looks like a living creature.
Not me... Featherless dinosaurs were the norm I was born into in the 90's so although I know many were feathered now, I just don't sit here talking about whether or not they were... I'm not a "paleontologist" until someone brings up Triceratops. lol
no feathers, veloci raptors were had the size of a chicken and their hands pointed in a different way so yeah it is a great model but NOT looks like any kind of raptor we discovered so far, ecspecially not a veloci raptor
6:24 "A computer program in the cards memory" Just thought you would like to know that card doesn't have any micro controllers or memory. It's just an analog motion servo amplifier for controlling the servo-valves.
wow this *velociraptor* looks awesome. the *velociraptor* is one of my favorites dinos. if i could choose between a dinosaur to have as a pet i'd choose the *velociraptor*
Question What would Jurassic Park be like if they used scientifically accurate looking dinosaurs? Velociraptor: looking like a cross between a turkey and a ring-tailed lemur with the flying skills like a miniature ostrich. T-Rex: a giant chicken with downy feathers with pretty cool patterns And many other dinosaurs that were alive in the Mesozoic era. How would Jurassic world turn out if the franchise used scientifically accurate dinosaurs in the movie? Would it just as fun and thrilling to see the Dinosaurs in an accurate looking light Would blue still be beautiful if not gorgeous as her scientifically accurate counterpart? Would the big T-Rex still be a threat to the characters? Would the movies be completely different from what we seen? Answer those questions
Good job. How about we start sculpting life-sized elephants, with so much detail you can't even tell it's a figure, but instead of placing their ears vertically, we make them horizontal? Hell, we could even stick some horns on its head.
And yet you forget these creatures have been dead to roughly 43 million years, an the model was conjured for theatrical effect, and have no relevance to any scientific findings
Invincible Nightmare we don’t know if velociraptors has feathers! You can’t make a point without evidence. And velociraptor’s wrists bend naturally that way so you cant really comment this.
SandyLPS first of all, this is Utahraptor or Dakotaraptor. Second, we do have evidence for it’s feathers. Third, no theropods could have their wrists facing behind - all theropods had the wrists facing each other.
Supersword7 but like owl boi said, it doesn’t matter if it is realistic. The species has been extinct for 65 million years, and it is a model. It doesn’t matter. For all some people care, they could have given it fluffy wings and they wouldn’t have cared.
..Oh-Em-Gee !...This man almost exactly looks like Hammond...Difference is that Hammond was a genetic engineer & this man seems like a software techie, doesn't he?
Why is no one here saying how this thing holds up to Disney's Shaman animatronic, though? I mean, look at that movement at the end! That's so darn fluid, the dinosaur looks like either alive or CGI. O.O
