[@CFAmbush]

Everyone here is calling the T-Rex better, just because it is more famous. These people haven't read anything about other dangerous large carnivores, such as the Acrocanthosaurus or Carchardodontosaurus.

[@MarineCorps98]

Well, in all honesty the Tyrannosaurus Rex was most likely the best hunter with it's cone shaped bone crushing teeth and a max bite of 12,800 psi... now the carcharodontosaurus on the other hand has shark like teeth and it's name "sharp toothed lizard." Now I don't know for sure to estimated bite force of a carcharodontosaurus, but I can only assume it's relatively weak compared to other large carnivores as it's jaw wasn't as thick as others and I high biting force would cause its jaw and teeth to break under high pressure. Don't get me wrong though, I am no T Rex fanboy and I personally love the carcharodontosaurus...

[@Likosaurus]

Allof those predators are equally efficient, they have advantages other eachother and the different ways of using their weaponry means comparing them is rather just ridiculous.

[@krab4250]

They should make more videos because there so realistic and has so much potential

[@mofumyon]

I agree, but I do have some criticisms. The sounds in this doc feel really repetitive, especially how they reuse them for similar dinosaurs, and the animation tends to rely a lot on jump cuts, shaky camera movement, and randomly zooming in on stuff. Also, I think the science segments would work better if they tagged them on at the end of the episodes, like what BBC Earth's flagship series do with "behind the scenes" segments. Also, the segments generally seem to focus exclusively on hunting and territorial disputes, when it's almost certain that dinosaurs did much more than that. Planet Dinosaur definitely has potential, though, and if a future reboot makes the changes I suggest here, that would be what shifts it from simply having potential to being truly great.

Clearly, the Dal Sasso specimen of Spinosaurus had a skull in excess of 1,5m, more likely 1,7-1,8m. The holotype, which was subadult, had vertebrae longer than sue, and nearly twice as long as Baryonyx. Even based on taxa like Suchomimus, that have far smaller spinous processes and were likely far less bulky, Spinosaurus would have far exceeded 10t.
