PBS THE DINOSAURS Flesh on the Bones 2 of 4

[@EnhancedNightmare]

Such a nostalgic feeling watching these. I was replaying it hundreds of times on my vhs back as kid.

[@Saberrex1]

8:58 -The moment I jumped out of my skin as a kid at the very first time I heard the name Deinonychus, and the moment Deinonychus and all other dromaeosaurids became one of my favorite groups of dinosaurs of all.

[@Massgraveofsaints]

SAME! The music used when Deinonychus is introduced, the skeletons, it gave me chills! I was only 6 or 7, but that little retractable claw made this and Velociraptor and all the raptors my favorite of all Dino’s!! 🙌🏼

[@joeguevara1145]

Phil Tippett's Deinonychus segment is really awesome, if bloody. And the Tyrannosaur segment made me cry back then because both Tyrannosaurus and Triceratops are my personal favourites...

[@libraryquiet]

I was six years old when I came across my first encounter with dinosaurs. And like every child, I was hooked. My favorite was Tyrannosaurus. I don't know how this wonderful documentary series got by me without me noticing it. This series is the best I've ever seen on dinosaurs. From the historic information and films, the artistic graphics and interviews, even to the narrator, this series is first class, top notch.

[@OmarPhoenix]

libraryquiet summer 1993 is when it hit PBS during the dinosaur boom brought on by Jurassic Park. I had just finished 8th Grade. I was obsessed! I couldn’t be pried away from the TV for ANYTHING

[@LordDinosaur]

I first found this series in my town's public library as they had most of the tapes there for rental. A few years later and I managed to convince my parents to buy me the whole VHS set and I haven't regretted it since.

[@DuelKingYami]

I was three years old when my mom first introduced me to these movies. There was a blockbuster near our house and at least once a week mom would take me there to pick out some movies. This one and nature of the beast were usually among them. Great memories. Thanks for posting.

[@thehopenesss]

This was my favorite thing to watch when I was a kid, been trying to figure out even the title for years ans what do you know but it’s right here. I love the internet 💙

[@retard_activated]

I really LOVE the animator's old school style. Makes me think of like The Last Unicorn kind of technique. I have always loved hand-animated cartoon. 💖💖💖

[@lem1738]

I loooooove The Last Unicorn

[@FdotsgtCIIR]

I like how the animators were part of the documentary.

[@suryatjandra7120]

Yes. There are many feather dinosaurs found in china.

[@ogreface8]

Damn straight! Seeing it in person is awesome, it's absolutely huge, and 15 minutes from my house!

[@davidyoung9335]

I couldn't agree with you more on this one. 👍

[@dc_mischief]

When Prehistoric Planet came out earlier this year, and showed sauropods with inflatable air sacs on their necks strutting around like modern sage grouse, I thought that it was pretty forward-thinking to depict them like that. Maybe a little speculative, but in 2022 we know that dinosaurs were very birdlike, it's in vogue to depict them with all kinds of soft tissues and doing all kinds of weird behaviors that birds do today. I just rewatched this documentary for the first time in a VERY long time... listen closely in the animated stegosaur segment. At 42:57, as it peeks around the tree, you'll hear the stegosaur make the sound of a male sage grouse bopping its air sacs together. This documentary was literally decades ahead of its time.

[@abstractgrant]

Is THAT what that sound is!

[@anthonybusch4407]

Guess both documentaries, old and new, have something in common.

[@kefkaZZZ]

So Jealous of the professor. He gets to go to the tracks and call it research, probably has a pint while he's there. Then he goes back to his state of the art laboratory and uses the greatest computer setup to ever exist in order to compare a horse and a dog running. Seriously, this guy had the life!

Informed guesswork. And creativity. That tells the whole story

[@dylangeltzeiler946]

I wish this PBS Documentary featuring all 4 episodes of the Dinosaurs was out on DVD. I liked the animated Apatosaurus, Struthiomimus, Stegosaurus, Edmontosaurus, Pachycerhinosaurus, Troodon & Most of all Triceratops & Tyrannosaurus Rex family aka T.Rex Family in this episode. In addition, Some Real live Lizards & an animated Rhino, Lion & Crocodile.

[@dylan9025]

[@williampaz2092]

[@dylangeltzeiler946]

@@williampaz2092 “If”. It would help if I could get a hold of PBS about what Documentaries on Modern & Prehistoric Animals “Especially one of the NATURE Programs” have yet to be released on DVD in America. That goes double for one of those National Geographic Documentaries on Modern & Prehistoric Animals that have yet to be released on DVD in America too. As a matter of fact, I just discovered something. Remember one of those clips of the other animated Dinosaurs seen on that Really Wild Animals episode “Dinos & Other Creature Features”? I discovered the identity of the Documentary those clip segments came from. Plus, I had a little bit of help for someone who told me the identity mystery. It is & was “Dinosaurs on Earth: Then…& Now” & surprise, surprise. Dinosaurs on Earth: Then…& Now was all along from National Geographic. If you don’t mind, I would like to say the names of both the PBS NATURE & National Geographic Documentaries on Modern & Prehistoric Animals that have yet to be released on DVD in America. As much as this 4 part PBS Program & it’s National Geographic Predecessor I mentioned.

Don’t forget the Elephant.

I have torn the Internet apart looking for this documentary! I found and bought a set but it was a horrible copy. Thank you for posting this.

IMO, the Pachyrhinosaurus in this documentary looks better than the NHK one.

[@tonybusch8771]

[@Bastet32]

Fantastic documentary. Thank you

[@shibolinemress8913]

I believe I saw the same animation sequences used in a dino documentary for and hosted by kids. Does anyone else remember this, or am I just imagining things?

[@mansquatch2260]

Consider: They abducted a turtle, measured her breath, and let her go. That turtle was telling her friends, "Dorris, I tell you, they were big, walked on the land and with 2 legs, had no shell, kidnapped me, and put a tube in my mouth... then let me go." Dorris turns to Ruth and says, "Mable's gone nuts, hun."

[@AndrejTelisman]

Speed and cold/hot bloodiness, important information for a biologist. I believe they had adaptation, for every situations (weather, temperture, food, and so on). Same animal, different lifestyle. Today we see tham as birdlike animals, complex, somthing difrent than we have today.

[@supermariologanfan6546]

The Deinonychus footage is taken from Dinosaurs! hosted by Christopher Reeve

[@paleoph6168]

Yeah, and the color quality of the animation in this documentary looks good. I do love Phil Tippett's go motion dinosaur animations.

[@paleoph6168]

And btw the title of the documentary is "Dinosaur!", not "Dinosaurs!".

So does the Stegosaurus.

[@johnshields6852]

Some time in the distant future after were gone, the will be new creatures, maybe intelligent ones with different biology than humans, we might be dug up and studied from archeologists of that era.

[@ImperialKnight770]

favorite show!!

[@kingrahzar9351]

29:20 you call those pachyrhinosaurs they look more like elasmotheriums to me

[@paleoph6168]

This documentary depicts the old idea that the huge lump of bone on the nose of Pachyrhinosaurus supported a great big horn. Interesting yet now considered innacurate.

[@tonybusch8771]

@@paleoph6168, Yeah, Tell me about it.

[@shibolinemress8913]

I've never heard of the folding steg plates anywhere but here. Is this still considered possible today?

[@Blokewood3]

I've been wondering the same thing. We do know now that Stegosaurus had its plates covered in keratin, so I doubt they could move very much.

i Agree dino's where warm blooded creatures and also used the sune to boost speed

[@mr.hazamayukiterumi2909]

Actually, dinosaur metabolism is very complicated. Maybe some might be warm-blooded, but they can actually be mesothermic

[@lamportnholt9509]

How massive must the heart have been to pump blood up that high...have these scientific types ever wondered......

[@JOSH-lw2jv]

51:51 Sadly, the heroic mother Barosaurus protecting her baby from an Allosaurus has since been retconned into just a random Barosaurus inadvertently protecting a juvenile sauropod of a different species called Kaatedocus from the Allosaurus.

[@Prairielander]

If birds are the ancestors of dinosaurs then doesn't it make sense that dinosaurs were warm blooded. As birds are warm blooded too.

[@sedsworld1672]

That poor leatherback),: She just made a tremendous journey by sea and land. Then spent hours laying her eggs. She had to have been exhausted. For her to be used as a science experiment afterwards makes me quite sad. This was probably before conservation laws had been put into practice.

[@kurtbjorn3841]

Don't be sad... 160 years ago, she'd have been butchered to feed sailors on some stupid sailing ship. She made it back into the sea OK. Sadly, sea turtles are still hunted in parts of Indonesia and even Australia by "native" inhabitants, who are allowed to do so because it's "traditional", despite the fact that there are tons of edible fish that could be taken instead.

[@mr.hazamayukiterumi2909]

Its not like they're hurting it. Don't be such a softie

[@mbp7060]

I really don't mind eating all the time. If that's a heavy price to pay then gosh dammit I'm willing to pay it. I don't need to see these people digging up skeletons, come talk to me when you finish.

[@kingrahzar9351]

sooooo people estimate an animal's speed by how much time it took for the creature to run and the distance of its footprints........????????? that doesn't seem very thorough

[@critterfreek83]

It actually is pretty thorough. For one thing, the faster an animal is moving, the farther apart its footprints will be.

[@Blokewood3]

That shows the length of it's stride, but the problem is that for the footprints to have fossilized, they most likely would have to have been in mud, and nobody runs the fastest they can when walking through mud.

[@komolkovathana8568]

13:30. But the speed determined by the TIME, can you just scale up the normal speed by measuring the enlarged stride. Even so, your Normal Speed must be determined by TIME, again, of real galloping. So, i think all this about the Reasonable Guess !?! or sound Estimation, at most !?!

[@komolkovathana8568]

But OK, by scanning the bone cavity of Dinosaurs, the tiny vessels showed that they were WARM BLOODED just like Birds and Mammal, in opposite of Turtles and Lizards, which are truely COLD-BLOODED.

[@tonybusch8771]

1:03

[@kingrahzar9351]

sooooo how fast is a t. rex then if they said there's no footprints to clock their top speed

[@jackiepalencia8642]

The plates could not wiggle

[@pytko3]

+Jackie Palencia We don't know that. There are no remains on soft tissue that could prove they could or couldn't.

[@kylecollier2285]

+pytko3 very true, in fact maybe the smaller stegosaurs could wiggle their plates since they are smaller and maybe more flexible than their bigger cousins.

[@narawilliams7560]

Why would they make the stegosaurus's plates wiggle?!

[@kylecollier2285]

Nara Williams to threaten attackers that if they get too close they could wind up learning a lesson the hard way.

what are they doing experimenting on that poor leatherbacked turtle..... *that's violating conservation efforts* !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@critterfreek83]

Relax. The procedure didn’t harm her in any way. She’d already laid her eggs. And for all we know, the presence of the researchers might have kept poachers or nest raiding animals like coatis away from that part of the nesting beach during the night.
