This might be one of my favorite episodes in our history. See you live tomorrow and in Footnotes next week. Thanks for watching, and a HUGE thanks to *Dr. John R Hutchinson* check out his work here: t.co/dc3acyVmSO - KH
Definitely your best, really enjoyed the scale and the visualization!
Because Science your amazing Kyle!!! How could a human survive an experiment like Wanda maxximoff and quicksilver and eleven from stranger things? Thanks
Because Science 2:30 Never stand under the cloaca, Kyle... You never know what might come out, and when...
Excuse me? What about Power Rangers and their DINOSAUR ROBOTS that came out before the original Jurassic Park movie? Doesn't that get some credit for dinosaurs being part of pop culture?
Because Science Could you please do an episode of because science on spinosaurus versus Tyrannosaurus rex
For several reasons :
1) they didn’t even exist at the same time .
2) they weren’t even on the same continent
3) Spinosaurus jaw was made to eat fish
4) and would have been far too weak to bite at Tyrannosaurus rex neck and fling it 10 feet away
I understand that the movie Jurassic Park III put it in there for entertainment value but people on CZcams are talking about it like they could be some believability to this so could you please, I’m begging please rectify this Yours truly an avid watcher of your channel by the way I remember when you had shorthair thanks much Richard Parks
In the words of TierZoo: Humans can win any fight, so long as they have time to prepare.

Thank God I watched this before hiking! This actually saved my life, as I ran in to a T-Rex at the national forrest.

Ever since I studied some engineering, I've always been extra fascinated by the massive complications dinosaurs must have dealt with to be so massive. Look at elephants, which stand more or less on their toes, and can't jump. I was a bit surprised to realize that a fall would be very lethal to the larger dinosaurs. I wonder what their fights would have been like, with their limitations in mind? If two t-rexi fought over territory, if one got knocked over, this would probably have been lethal, and if they preferred posturing more over shows of actual strength. If one good blow could mean death, it'd be a bad idea to pick fights I suppose!
Well we have healed trex skull injuries where it looks like one rex was pretty brutally wrestling the other by its head/trying to lever the top of its braincase off. So yeah trex fighting was britally dangerous
@@rileyernst9086 Yup, we have a lot of evidence of intraspecific combat in Tyrannosaurs. Seems to have been common.

probably one of the most dangerous point during your attack is at the moment of it falling. its feet will probably kick out dramatically and since you are most likely near those, it would be one hell of a drop kick.

Not only do you have to be a good sprinter, you have to be a long distance sprinter since a T-Rex probably won't give up after 100 meters.
Exactly -- KH
Would he really? I mean, a human seems to be almost too small to be considered an "interesting" prey. Most predators don't chase after what they don't consider "worth the hassle", because they need to save their energy as most as they can - they can't afford any waste.
My dinosaur knowledge is extremely rusty, so I'm honestly curious. Wouldn't it be more logical for the T-Rex to just scare off small animals he's not interested in eating?
Valkorion the Great I don't know much about this either, but I guess it depends on how hungry it is and how many bigger animals are close
I dont know bears eat bugs and T rex was probably like a bear opportunistic.

Have you sprinted on a treadmill? 11mph is fast.
Adrenaline is effectively an emergency boost for your body, 11mph is nothing when you are being chased by a T-Rex, you could probably do 20mph for about 20-30 seconds or so before your energy reserves run dry (Even then, you likely wouldn't just collapse, but you would slow down considerably, maybe to the point where rexy could make a meal out of you)
Though eventually, your ATP reserves will be burned up, anaerobic glycolysis will fail due to excessive lactic acid build-up, you will "hit the wall" and down you go, right into rexys waiting maw

Exactly what I thought. Now I can't unthink it...

I’m not sure if the exhaust port of a T-Rex is where the eggs come out
The tail of a T-Rex was probably used to balance that massive top-weight of the animal. If so, it would also be very strong, and as you have illustrated very well (this is probably the best visualization on dinosaur size I've seen in a while) it is also incredibly long. Combining those two facts, coming up behind a T-Rex in order to mess around with its legs might be just as dangerous (if not more so) as coming at it from the front, since just one sweep with that massive tail would be enough to send you flying several feet and crush your body into paste.
3vrLol and even if you get there you might still get stomped.
Oddly, I think the T-Rex's size still plays against it. As Kyle demonstrated, the tail itself is quite high off the ground, and given the amounts of balance that such a large creature would require, I'm not sure that it could actively utilize it's tail very well against a small, low-to-the-ground target.
Not that you wouldn't be smooshed with one hit. Rather, I think that the range of motion required to use the tail as a weapon beyond a little coincidental wiggle-waggle would cause enough torque to tear the Rex's hips apart. Is it a danger? Absolutely, but I definitely think it's much less "actively" dangerous than the front end.
I agree. It might still be a bit dangerous, but its probably so important to the balance of the animal that it wouldn't be able to effectively use it as any sort of weapon against something intentionally without also having to worry about tipping over itself, thus negating any effective use of it as a weapon, and more just an obstacle to avoid.
Monitor lizards are 4 legged, not bi-pedals like Rexxie.
You need to think about this. Bears fight wolves. Tigers fight wild dogs. There were smaller predators that T-rex competed with and probably fought from time to time. It probably was formidable defending itself. T-rex ruled for millions of years. It was probably not as fragile as this video suggests.
This is just so poetic. The greatest strength of the T-Rex is also its greatest weakness.

A big factor that Kyle forgot to mention is that T-Rex's are both predators and scavengers. They likely sought very large prey, given hint to by the overkill that their bit force would have against smaller animals like ourselves. The articulation of movement a T-Rex posses is so poor that if you managed to get near the rear of their feet there would be nothing that they could do to get to you. If they attempted to deliberately step on you, they would throw off their balance trying to raise their foot 2m off the ground without forward momentum.
In reality a T-Rex would be easier to hunt than an Elephant due to the fact that it is reliance on its forward motion for stability, since it only has two legs as opposed to four; meaning that as soon as you were behind it, it would be helpless against you (aside from its tails random movements). One hunter in front and one behind with spears would leave the Rex with limited options, face the front person who can easily keep their distance while the rear is stabbed multiple times, turn to face the rear simply reversing the problem, or charge/flee where its maneuverability becomes limited and a fit enough couple of humans could not only keep pace but *easily* outlast the dino in a test of stamina. Hunter class humans would do incredibly well in a matchup against what movies try to tell us would be terrifying, when in reality a cougar is a significantly more dangerous threat than nearly any dinosaur that existed.
T-Rex weaknesses: Slow speed up and low top speed, limited stability from being bipedal, inability to turn rapidly, inability to access areas smaller than its beak, stride length, forward heavy center of mass. We wouldn't be hunted by the T-Rex, we would be hunting T-Rex and people would be filming CZcams videos of themselves trying to take these down with knives.
Sean Peery I bet you are one of those people that thinks they would be better off in a medieval battle without armor right?
You couldn't be more wrong about trex.
though I do think that the idea of people taking out T-rex's out with knives is a bit of an exaggeration to say the least, he does have a point. These beasts were never meant to kill smaller nimble creatures, instead they went for other beasts equal, or even larger in size. this means they aren't optimised for fighting humans to say the least. For them, fighting humans would be like what for us is hitting a fly: yeah we could kill them in one hit, but that means you do have to hit them.
I think a WAAAY more terrifying dinasour for us would be velociraptor, since they're in our weight class and probably have a manouvrability which would be closer to that of us. and still be able to shred us to bids in mere seconds.
THANK YOU
T. rex could run as fast as an Olympic sprinter. And could maintain that speed over great distances. It's very likely that they also hunted juveniles as most predators living or extinct tend to avoid predating on any individual that can conceivably hurt them back. Injury to a predator is a death sentence.
true, but I do think we're talking about quadripedal juveniles which are still A LOT less manouvrable than humans are. especially in terms of rotating and sidewards movement, which is the type of movement you'd need to not get eaten. (think as in a bull fight).
why do i feel like this will be useful someday
fighting an elephant.... maybe
"A possibly Peter Quilled body" 😂😂😂 gosh I love his puns.
You can also put him against a bigger, less bulky dinosaur that instead of hunting, just ate fish but is completely covered in plot armor.
SuperMissigNo #spino4lyf
Spino probably ate more than just fish. It probably also hunted other Dino's.
Maybe, but it still wouldn't be capable of killing a rex.
SuperMissigNo not necessarily true. It may not have as big as a bite, but it did have massive claws which could slice through just about anything.
SuperMissigNo Nice profile pic :0)
What tensile strength would you need your tripwire to have, in order for it to not snap when being exposed to a sprinting T-rex hitting it with one leg first, accelerating forward? And is this a realistic force for vines to have, since that's what would most likely be available?
A decent steal cable would probably be sufficient enough to not snap, but your would have to tie it to something that it wouldn't also just break or somehow come lose from. Though we are talking about something that is exceptionally top heavy, so just a small force applied to unbalance it would probably be enough to accomplish the task even if it did come loose or break in the process.
Also it could break, all it has to do is cause a misstep breaking the stride and causing momentum to topple the beast. The balance point is so precise any disruption could be catastrophic.
An arresting cable from an aircraft carrier, like the Eisenhower CVN69, should work just fine without snapping. As Kyle said in the video, T-Rex would be lucky to "sprint" at all. So you would only have to topple it's mass at 11mph. Which is made easier by it being extremely top heavy.
steel cables or even a regular heavy duty chain would be about in the ballpark. like kyle said its top heavy and might be easy to tip over. so even if the chain snapped in half it would probably have been enough to make the T-rex lose its footing and likely trip it giving you plenty of time to try and cut the heels or run even further.
Michael Berthelsen You would certainly need to wrap it around several times which means it would be visible and easily stepped over. But if you can figure out the whole time travel thing you could probably figure out high to take some strong yet hard to see wiring back with you; or an elephant gun. 🤣
I absolutely LOVE every single reference you did! :D
For the sword option I'd use a greatsword-sized falchion, give it to my strongest guy, and have him do a wrath cut to the tendons to maximize the chance of success. For the mass of the greatsword would give the cut bite, and the edge geometry of the falchion would make it able to slice as effortlessly into flesh as your razor shaves hair. The strength of the wielder would provide lots of force and the wrath cut, focused on one powerful strike, would best focus that force on the fine razor-edge of the blade to devastate the T-Rex. Also, I's have a distraction keeping the T-Rex occupied from the puny human sneaking behind it to sever its tendons.
Correction. The heels were not the director's idea. It came from Bryce Dallas Howard herself. Originally she was supposed to have sneakers.
KaWaWu yeah and aside from that she never 'outran' the TRex the animal was barely getting a little jog when she was doing a full on sprint. The TRex never ran so there was no 'out' running to do from her.
Also the access road she led her through was full of turns, not even close to full speed trying to manoeuvre down those back roads and through a Spinosaurus skeleton replica (I loved that part!)
Step 1: Don't.

Correction: Step 1: Realize that the T-Rex has been dead for millions of years. You win ;)

I think the dinos we'd have most trouble fighting are medium-sized ones, approx. 4 to 8 meters long. We don't have enough strength to take them down and we won't be able to make them topple themselves effectively.

So rollerblades would be op? XD
This is outdated. Recent studies show that T-rex was actually deceivingly good at turning despite its large body mass
First, I wanna say I love how you included the discoveries of recent years, like it having feathers, and how good eyesight it actually had.
And for my question; Do you think you could you distract it with something like a flare, or some other kind of light? Would that be effective?
The distraction should be possible, in the same way that a laser pointer works on felines. A person holding a flare-- particularly in Grant's case, where it is very dark and his physical form is obscured from the predator by heavy rainfall, shouldn't have much issue getting a predator to focus in on a flare-- a distinct oddity that could be something edible. The Rex itself is likely very unused to things like flares, and with the bright red light sparking up in the middle of a storm, it could definitely be more of a focus than the person holding it.
I just want to know where that cliff came from...
CoyoteCamouflage lol for real about the cliff though. I love that movie so much as a kid (still love it) that I used to watch it a few times a week when I was like, 5. Even as a child that cliff confused me.

It's being long disproven though.", and the T-rex cub jumps out of the nest and eat the guy.
Marcelo Silveira would T. rex have cubs? Or chicks? Maybe Rexlettes. What’s the term for baby reptilians
lol, no idea, I just picked the term I think everyone would understand XD
Marcelo Silveira wasn't Jurassic Park already out before the movie
believe it got released few months prios, but it was still under writing as it was recorded, given the writter talked with Spilberg (his friend) when it was still just an idea. Basically he asked Spilberg what he thought about it, if he should write or if no one would like to see it. Spilberg said that whichever he chose, he would make a movie about it, so the writer started developing the story while talking to Spilberg about what he had already made, both for feedback and to inform on how the movie should go. By the way, the personalities of Hammond and the Lawyear are exchanged in the movies, as well as the girl and the boy who I never remember the names.
Lt ChugaCast There isn't a definitive term for Tyrannosaurus young, if I can recall
Awesome, i feel ready now for when some crazy scientist decides to bring these monsters back to life
Nobody:
CZcams at 2am:*how to fight a T.rex (and win)*
Me: ah shit here we go again
So like, wait, are you a master at writing backwards or something?
xweert711 I was thinking the same thing
i imagine the video is flipped :V
Who needs science for this question?? The answer is use a gun. If that doesnt work, use a bigger gun.
And if that doesn’t work, use more gun.
And if that doesn't work, use the spare rocket launcher, also I would say large flamethrowers would at least make it flinch
'MERICA
I'm not sure if a standard handgun would work, but a shotgun or a rifle should be enough.
Pablo de la Torre Gálvez its a t-rex, not a honey badger. Should die pretty easily.
Finally an Episodes that fits my needs and answers questions that i ask myself!
“Your life... found a way” that has to be the most hilarious thing Lyle has said in the this show. OMG I’m dying right now
How to fight a T. Rex and Win.
You already did it.
T. Rexs are exint.
You are not.
You may have won, but you didn't actually fight it!
Gets a shotgun fires a shot I WON
Extinct not exint
That's not me, it's my grandma^n..
But we where never alive at the same time to truly take the win in terms of existence D: and the tyrannosaur species had existed in total some 15-20 million years tech speaking they still got us beat by a wide margin sadly :/ but hey there's always the bazooka option! That pretty much wins every time against most anything in nature!!!
Kyle Hill: The Jurrasic Boi
(Even though that's technically the wrong time period)
Viewtiful Orange Peel Cretaceous boi.
But...But what if you dont wanna fight a T-Rex cuz you are too flashed About the Fact off havin found a Living T-Rex?
Brachy LP for real like 70% of people
Didnt even think about hitting like till that fun fact at the end. Enjoyed that thanks
How to fight against a T-rex? Become Turok and see how he deals with it.
Ira Pacheco Well Said XD Turok Wrecks Anything
Or you can use a zweihander
Just use the tek bow
I will try spinning, thats a good trick
AGHANIM 04 😂
AGHANIM 04 It is
AGHANIM 04
And use the force too....
These are real cool and fun to watch
Thanks for the advice. I'll keep that in mind next time
I'm really bummed that there were no jokes which referenced the 'large hadrosaur collider'.
What's that?
Chris Gaming It’s a play on the Large Hadron Collider particle accelerator and Hadrosaur, aka duck billed dinosaurs like Edmontosaurus that T. rex liked to eat
Thanks ill remember this when I go to fight a t rex
how it going to shoot actertly
Useful info my man
My favorite episode so far!
Now that's some practical knowledge!
Yeah
Gotta go buy a sword
This guy looks like Zaphod Beeblebrox from the Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy movie.
But way, way hotter.
Thanks, I will definately implement these facts into my VR game
That last clip with Jeff Goldblum is just a flex and I love it
Damn, you got to meet Jeff Goldblum? That's awesome!
He plays a jazz show every Wednesday night here in LA (Rockwell Table and Stage). I've been 4 times. He's remembered me each time, taken the time to say "Because Science" with me, and is *really good* at jazz piano. Highly recommended if you're in the area. One of the best nights in LA. -- KH
Five Goldblums outta five Goldblums
I feel like I need to make a trip out to LA just to meet you AND Jeff Goldblum at the same time. My head would explode from the awesomeness.
Hijynks h
let's just say, Life finds a way
Wouldn’t a T. rex have enough strength and/or momentum to break through a normal trip wire?
Steel cables would probably do the job though
Depends on what you tie it to, how taut the line is and what material you use.
Loved the Wilhelm scream. :D
Thanks for making this video. I am being forced to fight a T-Rex tomorrow and couldn't find any good tutorials online. You might have saved my life uploading this. Wish me luck in my battle!
A needed video, havent left my house in months becuase Im unsure on how to fight a T-Rex *until now*
8:25 This is why I believe ankylosaurus was the most difficult prey item for trex. One well placed swipe from that tail and if it hits the leg of tyrannosaurus, ankylosaurus could literally send trex falling to its own demise from his own weight. Not to mention, ankylosaurus armor could indeed repel at least two bites before succumbing. Triceratops is the most deadly of tyrannos prey but ankylosaurus is the hardest, pun intended, of them all.
Answer: Guns, guns, explosives, aircraft and armored vehicles.
I mean. To be completely fair. I have 0 idea how dense a t-rex's skull is. But the minimum caliber legally required to hunt big game, (elephant, rhino, ect.) Is a .350 H&H. Which a .50 bmg has much more muzzle energy than. So in theory it wouldn't be too hard to drop one in a single shot from a large caliber rifle.
um a rpg are you not thinking BIIG guns
@@mubarak5123 an rpg is inherently not a gun... it is a rocket propelled shaped charge. Yes. An rpg would work. But I'm stating the minimum that would in theory be effective. I mean a fucking desert eagle within 25 yards should feasibly be enough.
oh ok
This is a really cool video, but I would love for someone to make a video about how scientists know all of this just from bones it is pretty amazing.
There's lots of good videos and actual papers you can read online. CZcams series like _Your Dinosaurs are Wrong_ and _Eons_ are good starting points, and blogs by paleontologists and paleoartists like Mark Witton and Darren Naish make for nice reads without being too technical.
