I’m finally learning the truth about dinosaurs.

I’ve loved dinosaurs since I was a kid, but it turns out a lot of what I thought I knew is wrong… or at the least outdated. So, in this video, I’m gonna show you the cutting edge of dinosaur discovery. I’ll give you rare access into a warehouse full of dinosaur bones, try to find my own fossil, and show you something new these scientists just discovered…

Chapters:
00:00 What were dinosaurs really like?
01:08 Why is today a big deal for dinosaur discovery?
03:31 How big were dinosaurs, really?
05:49 When did dinosaurs actually live?
08:20 How many dinosaurs have we found?
09:26 What was the T-Rex like?
10:39 Did I find a bone??
11:55 What IS a dinosaur?
14:31 What did dinosaur skin feel like?

15:51 Can you guess this modern animal?
16:54 How were dinosaur fossils formed?

Thank you to the team at the Philip J. Currie Dinosaur Museum and the Pipestone Creek Bonebed for making my dreams of hunting for dinosaur fossils come true!

Correction:
17:40 Some of the dinosaurs animated here went extinct before this mass extinction event. Thank you to the thoughtful commenter who pointed this out! We sincerely appreciate it.
