I like the title, it's like "5 things you didn't know ..." but instead of assuming the content of the audience's knowledge it instead rephrased it to "things you should know" which makes you feel special if you already knew them but also attentive if you didn't, like if you don't know it, then you should pay attention and learn them. I'd like to thank SciShow for actually thinking about the presentation of their videos.

[@Papershire]

Yes this! The amount of stupid videos that pretend you know nothing about something is annoying. Usually those videos have crappy content too.

[@Titus-as-the-Roman]

I wish they would have included the fact that for an animal to become fossilized it takes some very specific conditions. There could be many Dinosaurs of new lineages that were very abundant but they didn't live in areas where fossilization was possible, so we would have no idea they even existed.

[@nahshon9998]

Do you realize how a organism can be fossilized? There are very strict criteria for an organism to fossilize. They have to die and then be very rapidly buried in sediment laden water. A whale in the ocean that dies never fossilizes. It is rapidly eaten by other creatures. No one today can claim that fossilization happens. But it happened to a whole generation of animals that were buried in sediment laden water long ago. But not too long ago since many fossils are c14 datable which is only good to about 60,000 years. Yet we find lots of dinosaur fossils that have soft tissue in them along with blood vessels, blood cells, and collagen. Intact blood cells! In supposed dinosaur soft tissue, still pliable. In fact they find soft tissue pretty much whenever they look for it. Blood vessels! Blood cells! In supposed 65 my old dinosaur soft tissue! And that supposed 65my old soft tissue is C14 datable! As you may know C14 is only found in specimens less than 60,000 years old. It can't last millions of years. The dinosaur saga is the biggest scam in all of paleontology. It is driven by faith. A faith in dinosaurs dying out 65my ago. The wrong faith will lead one astray.

[@kinomora-gaming]

So is this conclusive evidence that dinosaurs shaped chicken nuggets are, in fact, scientifically accurate?

[@diebesgrab]

Unfortunately no, since they’re rarely shaped scientifically accurately. That should totally be a thing, though. Scientifically accurately shaped dino nuggets. I might never eat anything else ever again.

That official definition of what a dinosaur is is one that I have never heard before in my life and I am a dinosaur palaeontologist. In our courses, we learned that there is no one distinct feature that we could use to perfectly say "this is a dinosaur and this other thing is not" like we have in mammals but rather a set of features, most of which happen to appear in most dinosaurs.

[@Angel_Billy4-30-23]

Wow, that's incredible that they can tell all that just from a part of a fossil. These scientists are amazing. Thank you for sharing this information with us through your videos.

[@harrietharlow9929]

Great video! I love both SciShow and Eons. I like to bring up birds to show that no, dinosaurs are indeed not extinct. Non-avian dinosaurs, yes. Avian dinosaurs, no. Feathers would be a great adaptation in colder areas. I find it fascinating that the bird I see perched on a branch outside is actually a dinosaur, or when I eat chicken, I'm actually consuming dinosaur meat. It's nice that dinosaurs are not entirely extinct.

[@laydieelle7069]

I like the Middle-Blooded theory of the dinosaurs. It supposedly explains how dinosaurs were able to grow so large in the first place.

[@nobob8564]

I love PBS Eons, but I wish the episodes were longer (like PBS Space-Time) given the low frequency of the episodes. Or having episodes more often like SciShow would be nice, but since SciShow is more news-ish it would be harder for a channel like PBS Eons to pull that off. Sooo...... Please consider making longer PBS Eons episodes! P.S. Love the shows! Good Job!

[@olbluelips]

[@num1shinfan]

I'm still confused about the pterosaurs not being dinosaurs. I've known for a long time that they weren't but the explanation seems like it's nothing more than semantics

[@thewolfofcomedy5966]

justin alexander they are just different evolutionarily. Both pterosaurs and dinosaurs split off from each other in the Triassic period, and the two lack the physical characteristics that each group is identified with. They are both considered archosaurs, but that is about as far as their relation goes. For example, but Big cats and Bats are identified under the Class Mammalia, but Bats are under the Order Chiroptera, and Big Cats are under the order Carnivora, thus you can call both a bat and a tiger mammals, but bats are not considered Carnivorans.

[@rogerlock348]

Fun fact they found trex scale impressions next to one of its fossils I think. T-Rex had crocodile like scales. It might have also had feathers too but probably mainly scales

[@Miamcoline]

Amazing stuff! Such a great channel

[@rashkavar]

Slight nitpick: Quetzalcoatlus: Probably the biggest LIVING thing that ever flew. The An-225 (largest fixed wing aircraft by wingspan), Mi-26 (largest helicopter by weight), and the Hindenburg (largest airship by volume) are all significantly larger than the Quetzalcoatlus. The helicopter's rotor diameter is about 3.5 times the wingspan, the airplane's wingspan is about 8 times as large, and the Hindenburg was about 4 times the wingspan in diameter and over 200 meters long. I know it's somewhat pedantic, but it's more worthwhile to point out that the Quetzalcoatlus is the biggest _living_ flier than it is to point out that the Great Barrier Reef is the worlds largest living structure, which most documentaries regularly point out, even though it's rather significantly larger than anything humans have built (unless you include road networks, in which case you're probably still not winning by volume because the reef is quite thick whereas roads tend to be pretty thin.)

[@vantaie2350]

Clouds: Am I a joke to you?

[@lurpyslurpy]

So if that is the definition of a dinosaur @0:58, then wouldn’t crocodiles and alligators be dinosaurs since they are also descended from archosaurs?

No, because birds are direct descendants of dinosaurs, and crocodilians are a different species than dinosaurs.

The plot of dinosaur discoveries has an incorrect change in slope at 17:24. When most genera have been discovered, the rate of discovery will significantly *decrease* (harder and harder to find new unknown genera). That decrease corresponds to a lower slope (more horizontal) than in the period prior. The plot at the far right should have a slope similar to the early days on the far left.
