Eric , it is also strange that evolution in nature is connected with the downsize of the species!As ages go by we get smaller and smaller! If, and i repeat if we manage to survive from destroying ourselves which is gonna be the next step of evolution for us as humanity????
Years ago i watched a series of documentaries with dinos (i think it was bbc) with spectacular graphics which showed the evolution till the extinction of them.Compairing the amount of years they lived we are like a drop in the ocean ...and made me believe that is very difficult for us to survive so long!(Not to mention about my philosophical and religional questions i came up against....you dont want to know!It was my first time ...the second one it was when i was in canada and went on a dino museum!)

Just occured to me that there are likely idiots out there who would take this as proof that humans and dinosaurs existed at thr same time!

Pretty neat.  I was going to say that I wish the dinosaurs had been labeled, but one person in the comment listed out the names.

Odd that a thousand people 'disliked' that video.  Presumably they think dinosaur bones were left by Satan to trick us.

"humans and dinosaurs existed at thr same time!"
we wouldnt have a chance against those predators especially if they were going to meet our primitive race.....thanks to the fact that there are thousands of years that separate their extinction from our birth we are still alive!

p.s. 6.1 feet then (i used the european metric system! my bad!)

Some of those looked like Whales walking on tooth picks! Tibia's had their work cut out for them back then.

*******************************

I was thinking (somewhat) the same thing.  Makes me wonder just how accurate those depictions are.....  Of course, they're probably only using whatever data is available to them and it may not show their legs/limbs/feet in their entirety.

We have very few complete -- or nearly complete -- dinosaur skeletons. A lot of guesswork.

A while back I was stuck next to a creationist who used the "fact" of guesswork about the dinosaurs to support, well, you can guess the rest.
