I worked with Jack at the Museum of the Rockies from 1993 to 2003. One of the things he said early on that took the scientific community by surprise was "I want to know how dinosaurs lived, not how they died." Working as an exhibit preparator, I saw some cool things come in from the field each year.

[@TVJUNK85]

5 years later, Jack Horner was correct on a few species, but incorrect on others: Dracorex and Stigymoloch are indeed younger stages of Pachycephalosaurus. Nanotyrannus is also a juvenile T.rex. However, a subadult Torosaurus specimen was later found; therefore enforcing that Torosaurus and Triceratops were distinct genuses. Furthermore, while he was correct that Edmontosaurus and Anatotitan were in fact the same *genus* , they were not the same *species* . Anatotitan is now classified as Edmontosaurus annectens while the original Edmontosaurus regalis (also now known to own a small crest on the back of its head) remains a separate and distinct species.

[@vampyricon7026]

Was the specimen Horner presented of _Edmontosaurus_ an _Edmontosaurus regalis_ ? Your objection could be invalid if he presented an _Edmontosaurus annectens_

[@cactusrubber2856]

Can you give me sources for the sub adult torosaur please

[@vampyricon7026]

Jill Carbajal It's on Wikipedia. You can look at the sources there.

[@kennethferland5579]

Nanotyrannus was controversial from the day it was named, everyone was saying 'it's probably a juvenile' because is largely has the same morphology as T-Rex, no avian like skull morphing needed. With even obvious examples like that slipping through shows the tendency to give new names. And lets not forget WHO named Nanotyrannus, Horners long time rival Bakker, so their is some comeuppance in this video as well.

[@IbizanHound2]

Thank you for this followup! I could see the visual relation between Dracorex, Stigymoloch & Pachycephalosaurus, but I am now at min 15:00 of his presentation and have actually paused the video to go through the comments hoping to find exactly what you re saying. When he suggested that the Torosaur is the adult version of a Triceratop when in fact Torosaur is missing completely a nose horn has a completely distinct shape of skull & his fringe has visible segmentations, it seemed like an overstatement. His sarcastic style of presentation & his mention of "Scientists Egos", sure backfired, big time.

Hi there. My eldest grandson, who is 7 years old, absolutely loved watching your video. He was mesmerized by the way you explained everything so perfectly.

I have given his mother my eldest daughter, the link to this amazing, funny video and, guaranteed, my grandsons, especially Damien, will be watching any further videos by yourself and colleagues.

The sign of a good scientist .. is when the results of their experiments are reproducible...aka. true.

The sign of a science priest, is one that makes wild unsubstantiated claims about theories that can't be tested. And yet consider them to be fact. They are known as science priests because science has morphed, in their minds, from a method, which it is .. to a religion.

Unpopular opinion: I am sick to death of Jack Horner. His contributions to the field of paleontology in the past certainly cannot be disputed; the problem is that, ever since his discovery of the Maiasaura nests and eggs, he has been told by so many people for so long that he has changed the way we view dinosaurs that it has gone to his head, and he has spent the rest of his career since then attempting to re-create that glory. He goes out of his way to challenge and pick fights with existing notions (from the whole "T-Rex was a scavenger" bit to the garbage that was "Decoding Dinosaurs") in the most controversial fashion possible, with the clear intent of making a name for himself regardless of how many tails he trods on in the process. He blatantly muddies the waters in a science that, by its nature, is inexact and heavily reliant on inference and guesswork to fill in the blanks (there is only so much fossils can tell us, mind), and he treats his field with clear contempt. His snobbish and holier-than-thou attitude doesn't help his case, and if the controversy about him and that 19-year-old student of his is any indication, morality and decency of conduct are not very high on his list of priorities. At one point, Horner was one of the most important people in his field; nowadays he is an opportunistic crank, and I really wish the paleontological community (and film industry) would stop giving him an audience to peddle his BS to.

Are you a paleontologist?

You want me to tell him this? I know him and can relay the message lol.

[@darub007]

Do you have anything debunking this or any competing theories. This topic was interesting to me but if what you say is true I'd rather get some more perspectives. Especially with how old this video is I can't help but wonder if this theory Horner put forward ended up holding true

interesting question. The answer lies with the truth about many things. No one wants to admit the truth, so no one shares it. The bones were reportedly destroyed in many cases.

[@Tidushii]

Well it's hard to re-adjust what you thought is factual especially if you have stake in it like I imagine most scientists do, like many people can't accept most dinosaurs were feathered for example because they grew up with the reptilian visualization and it's ingrained / nostalgic, I even saw how new studies showed Spinosaurus was mostly aquatic and would not have been able to walk bipedal on land and people couldn't accept it and dismissed it in spite of all the evidence because (and this was the funny part) it didn't look like that in Jurassic Park 3..
