  • I hope you all had a fabulous start to the new year! I had the honour of working with the Etches Collection to present a few pieces all about the incredible pliosaur discovery made by Philip Jacobs along the Jurassic Coast World Heritage Site. The BBC created a documentary about the excavation, preparation and restoration of the skull called 'Attenborough and the Giant Sea Monster'. This documentary aired in England on New Years Day and will be availble in the USA on 14th February on PBS. I thouroughly enjoyed being involved with this project and cannot wait for the rest of the skeleton to be found!
    Comment below any questions and I will create a follow up video to answer them :)

    Well done that`s a really lovely video. Interestingly I`ve just been photographing the site today where the rest of the skeleton is still lurking. Also found some more bones from another pliosaur who I call "Mr Big" (for obvious reasons)..

      Doesn't it just! (also makes me look tiny lol) 😂 thank you so much :) There is defintely more of the skeleton in the cliff, the question is how much more...but only a full scale excavation will be able to answer that for certain (I'm being optimistic though and believeing it is all in there 🤞)

    Honey if that snout tip weighs a ton... how is my dude flipping it around like balsa wood? Either you're wrong... or he is really strong!😂❤

    • @EmGems
      @EmGems  Před 4 měsíci +1

      Hahah I did think the same but It must have been perfectly positioned to flip as in this video (if you skipped to the end) it appears to be harder to move lol czcams.com/video/XnkuBn-U1no/video.html - either that or yes Philip is really strong 😂

    • @ArjanKop
      @ArjanKop Před 4 měsíci +1

      You could roll a stone ball the size of a small car over a flat surface, but lifting it up and carry it a couple of miles over uneven surface will prove to be pretty hard.

      @user-jg6bd7se8u Před 4 měsíci

      ​@ArjanKop ok so we're looking at 00:44 til 1:00. That isn't a round stone on concrete friend, rather an oblong structure that he clearly is able to rotate on a gravel uneven surface. @ 00:55 he literally picks it up one handed as if it is Styrofoam or maybe an old piece of driftwood. I'm just going to leave this here: Mythbusters @adamsavage 😂❤
      Phillip should be examined as well @marvelstudios 😮

    • @ArjanKop
      @ArjanKop Před 4 měsíci +1

      @@user-jg6bd7se8u the whole thing actually did weigh well over a ton, which suggests the piece first found is at least 40 kilos. You can flip over a rock weighing that much, but lifting it won’t feel nice and walking around with it, over rocks with an incoming tide, is dangerous madness.

    • @lauxmyth
      @lauxmyth Před 4 měsíci +1

      I took it as a bit of exaggeration for effect as no actual measurement was given. He hardly flipped it like balsam wood. I have moved safes and given how he rolled it, 100-150 kg seems more plausible. The location is UK so it is a tonne but now I am being pedantic.
