Walking with Dinosaurs

I discovered Nigel Marven's two prehistoric series; Prehistoric Park and Walking with Dinosaurs, and in the narrator's opening statement she says "...no matter how bad things get on land,..." *Images of a T-Rex chasing Nigel Marven* "...the one thing you should never ever do , is get in the water".

Adventure brewing :devil:
 
Those are good links. Right now I'm going over a draft I wrote some months ago, and am cleaning it up. The most dangerous beach thing looks interesting (and icky), but cruise youtube, and do a search for Nigel Marven's Sea Monsters. To me the first 45 seconds of that video speaks to everything I'm trying to write at this moment :)
 
The shoreline was no fun either... Steve Irvin and "Crocodile Dundee" would not last long:

While most of those were truly ancient (crocodylus porosus is the modern salt-water croc), this one likely snacked on early hominids ( East African waters between 4 million and 2 million years ago).

Some lady on the IMDB talked about the only reason to see a movie (I forget the title) was to see the alligator handbag some actress was carrying around.

I asked her if she'd ever seen a bag made of Sarcosuchus. :smirk:
 
Here is an old thread I started, it includes the MgT stats for a few of my favorite Dinosaurs!

Feel free to use what you can!

Planet Dinosaur

I'm watching the 2011 BBC series Planet Dinosaur. 1 season with 6 30 minute episodes. Looks at the newest information on and newly discovered dinos. Episode 1 looks at the largest ever (Spinosaurus) and Ep2 looks at feathered dinos (Microraptors, Sinornithosaururs, and Epidexipteryx).

I'm watching some of it. Spinosaurus was one bad mo-fo :)
