The Scientific Accuracy of Walking With Dinosaurs - Episode 2: Time of the Titans

@@kevinzhu6417 RIGHT?! my Grandad used to love watching the Discovery channel when he was alive. And with good reason as the programmes mainly consisted of original documentaries examining a wide range of subjects. All it is now is the same moronic pseudo-reality, 45 minute advertisement, maskerading as 'entertainment' at best. I think that it says a lot about how 'they' are endeavouring to steer our thinking. Or rather, ensure that we do much less of it.

Walking with dinosaurs really needs a new version, with updated dinosaur reconstructions and better visual effects (not that the originals were bad). There’s only a few paleodocumentaries that actually depict dinosaurs as real living animals, instead of violent roaring monsters

One thing I particularly like about Walking With is that the confrontations actually look like animal confrontations, i.e. long threat displays, sudden violence then more display. A lot of more recent documentaries (on Curiosity Stream for example) make it look like a video game deathmatch. That's a great source of clips for TierZoo but a ridiculous representation of animal behaviour.

Part of why this series is so good, in my opinion, is that it was willing to speculate with unconventional ideas, which is something not enough paleo documentaries do these days.

[@hedgehog3180]

I think the speculation in areas where it's justified is important, especially for bringing the animals to life but also to help inspire people. People speculating about possible behaviours of prehistoric animals are our best way of trying to approach what they might have been like and once someone comes up with an idea we can try to test it. It's also a great way to engage people in science since there's a lot of room for speculation and it's quite fun to do so, especially when you have fairly good knowledge about the animal to go on.

I love your review of this timeless series! Personally I did a large paper about the potential predatory behaviors of Allosaurus in college a few months back, and I loved how you brought in the same modern research! My favorite idea is the one I call "Spontaneous hunting parties". Since Allosaurus were so theoretically plentiful during the Jurassic, it's possible that multiple Allosaurus would target a single sauropod during their hunts, and they would "accidentally" team up. Since there's some evidence of intraspecific competition, they could have fought each other for the best meat on the body once the kill was made. Thanks for the cool video!

Also a fun fact to point out about WWD is that at the time it was thought that grasses evolved after dinosaurs were long gone, so they put a lot of effort and resources into searching for locations with no grass to film at.

Loved these reviews. Recently re-discovered Walking with Dinosaurs after forgetting about it for a decade, and it's been such a nostalgia trip. I think my favorite part of your review series so far is when you first present something that wasn't as cool as they made it out to be, only to point out there were even cooler dinosaurs out there. At first I thought I'd just get my heart broken by all the incorrect facts, but this just makes me more excited and I truly respect the creators of Walking with Dinosaurs for their work. One thing I loved about this episode was watching the young stage of a gigantic dinosaur. I've never really put much thought into the growth process of a Dinosaur - most of the time you just see eggs, maybe a hatchling and then scary adults. You don't really dive deep into how the growth process actually works, what behaviors the young would show, where they'd feed and what dangers they'd meet.

Can’t wait for Cruel Sea. It’s my favourite episode, even if the Liopleurodon is horribly inaccurate.

[@melvinshine9841]

I've no idea where they got that 82ft, 70 ton monster from.

[@Hydro66]

I read something about incomplete remains of a pliosaur estimated to be around 15m. It was originally believed to be Liopleurodon but later considered "unidentified". Regardless, it's still nothing like the ridiculous 25m length in the show.

[@LordVaderTyrannus]

@@Hydro66 The pliosaur remains in question were thought to be that of a juvenile, hence the 25 metre length.

Thankyou for making these episodes, these are so useful when creating paleoart as knowing more information really helps making them more believable and accurate

[@laurachapple6795]

Make them as long as you want - just gives us more time to enjoy them! :)

[@stephenrego6065]

LOVE THESE VIDEOS! Time of the Titans is also one of my favorite episodes in this series. Cant wait for cruel sea

[@marlarki5280]

That anurognathus reconstruction is gonna haunt me for weeks.

Marlarki ooooh the frogheadognathus will haunt you🐸

I have this series on VHS and it and other Walking With series from the library were my childhood. I'm glad I stumbled across your videos right as you started this series.

Really looking forward to the Big Al review. That special is the reason why Allosaurus was my favourite dinosaur as a kid.

[@lostnumbr]

the argument for the rearing up and blood pressure contradicts the information about how it likely held its head and neck naturally. if the neck was almost vertical then its brain is already several meters higher than the heart...

[@erinquinn215]

Thrilled to have found this channel, thanks Ben!

[@grobanlover292]

Please do walking with Prehistoric beasts! I love this series.

[@dubbingsync]

Wasn’t that just called Walking with Beasts? Unless it got renamed in other countries? Because here in the UK it’s always been called that.

[@TheSufferingDarkness]

Rhys Causon US version is prehistoric beasts

[@TheHungrySlug]

I'm loving these revisit videos, I'll ask you continue please. They are very intriguing!

[@jerdasaurusrex557]

I remember feeling filthy after watching the ovopositor scene as a kid.

Me too!

I had walking with dinosaurs on VHS and let me tell you, I watched it on repeat as a kid every day! I love your work on analyzing the series, keep up the great work!!

[@TheropodHunter]

3:07 I'd say that Dicraeosaurs were not much of tree browers considering how short their necks generally are.

[@michaellouton3870]

Very good job. I very much enjoyed it, thank you very much for your time and effort you put into it.

[@elmsigreen]

I am still so surprised whenever I see anurognathus. It looks so alien. It looks like it should be some sort of fantasy creature. Like a recreation of a child's drawing of a bat. It is just so weird! AND I LOVE IT!!!

[@oakdew]

Really glad you commented on the environment, as that is quite important in discussing what the lives of dinosaurs might have been like.
