4:00-4:15 gets me teary-eyed. I hope this is enough for proving to some people that T-Rex wasn't always a heartless bloodthirsty killer, it could also be a wonderful, caring parent, protecting their young to the death if necessary
I've come to the conclusion that all those people posting lame ass comments like "it's fake," or " I can see some weird thing under it," or "this sucks," obviously either have no imagination or they are jealous that they didn't see the show. That, or they don't appreciate something like this for people to enjoy. I saw this show when it came to Spokane, Wa. and I thought it was amazing! Sure, you could see the actors legs under the velociraptors and the mobile stand under the bigger dinosaurs, but what do you expect? The kids obviously love this show as kids love dinosaurs. I know I sure did back in the day. So to all you unimaginative people posting lame comments, please go away and post your comments on your Justin Beiber videos. Thanks!
There used to be a place in San Diego with animatronic dinosaurs (although they didn't walk around) that was pretty awesome, but it sadly closed a few years back. I totally agree with what you said though, normally I don't like going to zoo's because seeing animals locked up to be stared at by humans every single day makes me feel sad, but if they had a place full of life size walking animatronic dinosaurs, I would be going there everyday!
The only problem is that these animatronic creatures cost hundreds of thousands of not millions of dollars to operate and maintain each. So even if people were to pay to see it in an indoor zoo or something you'll be more than likely be paying more than a day at Disneyland. Probably 200 per day.
I saw this show when it came to NY, and the whole place shook when the T-Rex roared. I saw this with my 9-year old cousin and he was shaking the whole time. It's an excellent show to go see, and I heard that there's already tour dates for next year.
When we saw it, we sat in the middle facing the screen. She made her rounds looking around the audience, then seemed to look right at us! What a look she gave us, too. At that point she roared. My little brother and cousin both covered their ears.
I was 44 years old and I went to see this at the Verizon Wireless Arena in Manchester, NH last year (2008). I loved dinosaurs when I was a young girl. I want to see it again. It was awesome. You really feel like you are in that period. Don't be scared and not go - it is an amazing experience.
I agree!! And, believe it or not, I went to this when it came to our local city too! My favorite part was the Velocirapter. It moved so fast that I could barely tell that it was fake!
Just saw this today in Knoxville, TN!! It was awesome! They look, move, and sound real! Definitely worth 100 bucks for me and my husband since it may not come back to our city!!!
I saw this couple years ago, beacue i was a fan of the documentary when it came out. I have to say these animatronics are quite impressive. I wish we could see more of this in movies besides lifeless CGI all the time.
This was truly a spectacular show and I wish I could take my children to see it in the future if it was ever to return to Finland. Seeing this clip got me all teary eyed remembering the show. After a while you forgot the human operators and the feet and just gasped your breath in awe (altho' the ending could be more child friendly... a VERY loud and sudden bang made some of the kids in the audience cry and I almost had an heart attack XD). But if you like dino's this is an event you cannot miss!
I remember seeing this show with my cousin, we were the only teenagers sat in the audience of little kids :L The show, the Animatronics, everything, It was absolutely, Incredible.
simply amazing! For those of you over the age of 27, can you imagine if they had this kind of stuff when we were kids? I would have been way more interested! LOL Can't wait to take my babies, just stunning!
Last year our daughter wanted to go to this and she was two we didnt know how she would react to the Dinos...now she's 3 and still wants to go...I hope they come back soon because she REALLY wants to see them..I think she'd do ok with the show...HURRY UP AND COME BACK Walking with Dinosaurs!!!
When I saw this, all of the kids sitting nearby kept giving me the strangest looks as I geeked out over the dinosaurs. Then I realized I was the only college-age kid (with no younger siblings) sitting in that area. YAY DINOSAURS!!
I pledged to KOCE (a So. CA public channel that has since changed its name) and got 4 tickets in exchange. I made a gift to that station, yes...but they had no idea what a gift they gave to me! :)) Incredible, yes!!
Got 2 free tickets to see this, heck I'm 17 and I stilled enjoyed the show. They had one of the raptors in my local museum too, so you can actually get really close to it. They did an amazing job with the dinosaurs.
This show should have a Japan tour, so at every show when the T-Rex comes out, the entire audience screams out in unison, "GODZIIILAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"
SWEET! Ive always taken interest in dinosaurs. I still can't figure out how something so colossal EVOLVED to something so small. You'd normally consider that de-evolution.
took two of the grandkids to this show it was brilliant , you expect to see them big , but god they were full size and huge , i would recommend it to everyone .
So did I a couple of hours ago actually lol, Best show ever, the entrance of the T Rex was brilliant and the vibration from her roar echoed throught the whole arena! I sat on level 1 row T block 105 I think pretty good seats!
From where I'm sitting right now, this show just looks awesome.. I was not aware of this show at all. But due to the videos here on youtube, I looked it up and found that it's coming to our area this month.. The tickets have been ordered and will be here tomorrow and our 5yr old grandaughter is just gonna come un-done.... Thanks for sharing.........and Merry Christmas
Yeah, I totally get that, and this is exactly why I'm asking this. A baby lion is about the size of a cat, and that's why its vocal chords make such a high pitched sound. Actually, because of its size, a baby lion sounds more or less like a cat. So why would a dinosaur bigger than an adult lion/tiger/liger sound so high-pitched? Vocal chords are like organic trumpets, the bigger they are, the deeper the sound, and a baby T-Rex would already have vocal chords bigger than an adult lion's.
I saw this on their first tour - man it was AMAZING. I'm jealous though, they allowed flash photography in your stadium, we were told not to use flash :( Anyway, great price, great show, gorgeous works - I'd recommend this to anyone!!
I hear you, man... I hear you! But dude, that would be incredable to see! I bet every kid had to pick their jaws off the floor after seeing this. I know I would. Hell, I'm 36 years old... its kinda neat to know that some little boys never grow out of some things. I will always love dinosaurs!
I am not easy to afraid but when I was 8 I goes to Orlando disney, coutdown to extinction and the dinausor try to eat us , he walked and run without any support, It's the most realistic I ever seen OF MY ENTIRE LIFE!
i went to see this saturday the 31st on jan. the t-rex came up and roared in my face and one of the dinosaurs waved its tail walking with dinosaurs is SOOOO COOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I remember goin there with my lil bro and my mom and step dad. Im 15 and I had a blast. Even though when the trex looked right at us and roared i got a little scared.
The movement is so fluid... It's incredible... the only thing that gave it away was the platform beneath the T. rex. Obviously, moving such a large machine without the use of supports would be pretty much impossible, I'd say that they've done a bloody good job. Wouldn't you agree?
