I can almost guarantee the artists *did* look at the skeletons in question, since artists extensively study anatomy, but if they produced an accurate product, would get told by corporate, "What is that?! Customers won't recognize that as a bird skeleton! Who would buy that?" or "too expensive to manufacture! Use less bones!" and they'd have to go back and make something stupid that "looks" like that animal to laypeople. Don't blame the artists, man! 😂

@Melisski 9 месяцев назад

This is definitely what happens when the marketing department gets involved in any kind of design process. lol

@darcieclements4880 9 месяцев назад

I work with artists and they actually have me evaluate to see if they missed or misinterpreted anatomy in amount that somebody who's really familiar with the animal would find offensive. Specifically I'm looking at the diagnostic characteristics, the characteristics that really make that animal identifiable as that animal. It's a fine balance between artistic license and making sure that the animal reads as the correct animal and doesn't have anything that is really stand out incorrect. Biologists are going to notice things that many artists will end up missing. There's a difference between specifically studying one species for a long time to master drawing it and producing a lot of commercial art quickly. Not every artist actually has somebody to consult with to see if they've hit the broad strokes that are going to really stand out to people who are familiar. So it's not just a matter of corporate it's also just a matter of time. There is also of course the narratives that these things are actually made by necromancers putting together human bones which changes things a bit when you do an evaluation. And those cases if I were to be asked to consult on a project like this I would be looking to make sure that the individual bones looked realistic and the overall appearance was recognizable rather than the correct anatomy for the animal it was mimicking.

@darcieclements4880 fair enough. But you're only hired to consult by people who actually care if the final product is accurate or not lol. I guess what I mean isn't that every artist will naturally nail the anatomy of every species without help, but that any professional artist could do better than this if they were actually encouraged to be accurate & given the time to research. I assume the toy company makes their artists crank out designs as fast as possible and probably discourages accuracy if it means it's more expensive to manufacture or doesn't look as "cool" as skeleton octopus 😆

I would love to see Clint do a similar reaction to AI generated images of animals! I stumble across them all the time while doing Google searches. At first, there's just something uncanny about a certain image, but then you start to notice the backward-facing rear feet and unnatural scale pattern of a lizard or binocular vision on a pigeon. I'd love to see Clint's initial reaction to seeing some of those images. Maybe even the crew could put in some really bad ones, and Clint has to guess what it was supposed to be.

Are we sure these are bone ears? They do superficially resemble the fleshy external ears of many mammals, but it's not that unusual for horned animals to have multiple pairs of horns. I can only speculate about the reason for the unusual shape of the horn core on the smaller pair in this case, maybe that groove up the middle was associated with some kind of display structure, like inflatable air sacs?

My understanding is that these bone creations are actually all made from parts of human skeletons that some crazy necromancer has reconfigured together into the rough form of animals and then enchanted. That's my favorite like version of the explanation of like all bone weird anatomy critters. If I didn't have this I think I probably would have lost my mind over a decade ago and these things first started appearing, lol. I actually have enough friends that do museum specimen preparation that will when things go wrong with the preparation do things like this for art that it seems fairly plausible to me.

@lachouette_et_le_phoque 9 месяцев назад

I got the same dragon skeleton recently! I remember taking a look and thinking they did a decent job at solving the problem of having to connect 6 limbs to a body that should only have four. It looks like the front legs are attached directly to the ribcage with a hip like joint, rather than to the shoulder blades, and the wings are connected to the shoulder blades. No idea whether that would work in practice, and it certainly doesn't seem like something that would evolve from 4-legged animals, but I thought it was a good idea.

@angustheterrible3149 9 месяцев назад

In my experience regarding the production of toys and novelty items, costs are cut by companies through the re-use of molds and parts to assemble something new. People in production are not so much asked to look at an actual skeleton. It's more like they are asked to look at the existing parts, see what they can create with the molds the company has, and add the bare minimum of new parts to cut costs. It also has to do with how advanced their mold process is, and whether or not they are using computer modeling. This would explain the disparity between accurate aspects and inaccurate aspects. Not that they aren't getting the skeletons horribly wrong to begin with in many cases, but as a toy collector, I am always informing myself as to where companies cut costs in the production of certain figures, and I'm willing to bet these halloween decoration companies do the same. The more accurate ones are likely ones where the artist actually was asked to design something from scratch, rather than designing around the reuse of existing parts and molds.

Okay I think I missed the announcement of when you got the biology PhD, congrats. I never continued with titles after the baseline and I just kept studying it all on my own, but I also totally respect and understand the interest for professional educators continuing to go up the ranks, so grats on the PhD, sorry I missed the announcement. Seems like at that level you should really consider starting to do some research papers. I have piles and piles of research that need to be turned into papers but since my day job as an engineer is also pretty taxing I haven't ever gotten around to put in the papers together. I really do encourage you to consider you know actually writing up some papers because goodness gracious we need some really good ones done for so many species the research publication is so far behind. I know that you're focus is primarily on the RU-vid videos and the education as a professor but I would love to you know see if you would do some papers and if you need any data I'd certainly be up for helping with that part. I've always been really good at collecting data it's just actually submitting things to journals I suck at, lol. I'm sure there's probably plenty of others that are in a similar boat so maybe look around and see if you could get in on some of that because certainly PhD level experience with understanding the whole process of submitting papers would be awesome for a lot of people who have been continuing to do science but have been out of school for a couple of decades without submitting papers. Heck you could even do some videos on how to go about doing it that'd be cool.

I knew a lot of animal skeleton designs for Halloween were trash, but I learned a couple things new this fine morning.

"It's almost like it isn't that hard!" This had me laughing. Great job to the person who was able to use Google to reference a frog skeleton.

the fact that this dragon has external ears and the wings of fire dragons have external ears makes me feel like Tui Sutherland has special information we don't know about

I want that cat squirrel hybrid. It is like something out of Lovecraft's novels, lording over the other teratological nightmares.

Hi Clint! Great video! When you said, "Hyoid bone , it reminded me about something I learned watching "Forensic Files". A broken or crushed Hyoid bone tells the detectives their victim had been strangled. Like you said, it's situated at the root of the tongue in front of our neck and the larynx. Ta-Da!!🎈✨️🎉 Now y'all can go about your day feeling safe 😊and satisfied🎉

The only appropriate name for the cat is Frans (Snarf backwards)

This immediately reminded me of this piece of decor I saw a pet store recently of skeletal cricket, of all things.

I love the Fahlo bracelets. I got a shark bracelet, and mine was Boo as well, but the tracker deactivated, so they gave me another shark named Chum. He’s also a hammerhead, but not a great one, off the east coast. I appreciate the specials they have where they’ll send you a free one and you just pay shipping, it makes me glad to help conservation

I'm impressed that you called that first skeleton a hummingbird - I couldn't identify it as such!

Part of me feels bad laughing at the uneducated people who created those terribly inaccurate Halloween decorations but at the same time the other side of me finds it way too funny to not laugh at

I’m imagining some artist looking at a real skeleton and going, “Well, THAT’S not creepy enough. Let me see what I can do….”

Come on folks, the video is 30 minutes long, and it was posted 12 minutes ago. And there are already 60+ likes??? LOL I love Clint's videos too, but at least watch it first.

I like how when Clint is doing a video that non reptile people would likely watch (like this one) he introduces himself and what he does.

I like how, on the bird at the beginning, the skull looks an awful lot like those birdlike masks worn by the Angel Sachiel in _Evangelion._

@jedstanaland2897 9 месяцев назад

I like these decorative skeleton analysis because it helps me with speculative biology and how the different animals could be a real thing. For example the skeleton octopus is not actually an octopus but a very specific and special type of echinoderm instead. My thoughts are that basically some of the animals are not necromancer conglomerates or something like that but they could be a look into alternative biology that isn't completely functional on our world but it is completely fine somewhere else.

@darcieclements4880 9 месяцев назад

Aw no mention about the hummingbird feet. I feel like this was a missed opportunity. Maybe next year. I'm thinking both the history of when people thought that hummingbirds didn't have feet as well as like the special locking mechanics and other nifty features

@SweetOdinsRavens 9 месяцев назад

The necromancer theory still makes the most sense, because necromancers don't need the exact bone to make something, they just need bones as base material, and use magic to craft what they need out of it. The bone suckers and baby head are top tier stereotypical necromancy, no doubt.

I have been looking forward to this video for months. I propose "Punchline" as the name for the black cat- because as soon as it appears, everyone starts laughing!

I might have to send in the little skeleton creature that my mom got me last year during the after Halloween sales because we truly have no idea what it's supposed to be. It doesn't even claim to be any specific animal 😅
