Tyrannosaurus absolutely could Penatrate bone, but it probably couldn't fit its mouth around a sauropods leg to be able to penatrate the bone, and snapping it would be even harder. But yeah very possible with a 6 ton biteforce
@@KhanArtist3 actually, if the sauropod you're referring to is Alamosaurus, Tyrannosaurus absolutely could fits its mouth around the legs of juveniles, subadults and even smaller adults. Even at a suboptimal gape - and this is something that my friend validated when interviewing paleontologists - it would still be able to crunch and smash down with very extreme force, certainly more than enough to penetrate the bone. My Discord owner also went for a seminar by Dr Tom Holtz, and he validated that southern Tyrannosaurus populations would be regularly preying on subadult Alamosaurus and that breaking their legs by crunching through them is a viable strategy.
Hey Overseer, I noticed in another video the way you pronounce "Australia" a certain way - like, with a certain twang for lack of better word that I can currently think of. Are you perchance an Aussie?
Absolutely fascinating topic. Using the present to tell us about the past. If you think about it, these methods are actually super big brain for determining bite force. Using a multitude of methods and data to get ball park estimates, then using modern animals to "check their math" if you will. Really appreciate you making this one. Couldn't have explained it better myself.
The most important part was missed-that the bite force estimates completely ignore forces produced by other parts of the body, which either add to the bite force and allow the dinosaur to bite harder than its jaw muscles should allow for (as in allosauroids using their neck musculature and jaw muscles in tandem so both the upper and lower jaws are being driven into prey simultaneously, with the upper jaw having a lot more force behind it and doing the actual fatal damage) or impart additional force after the bite has been made that are potentially much more dangerous than the bite itself (as with tyrannosaurids, where the bite force gets the jaws latched onto prey, and then side-to-side thrashing motions inflict further blunt-force damage).
This was really interesting to watch!
It's nice to see how much we learn about dinosaurs, even though we have probably only scratched the surface.
I just got into an online spat with a UA-camr who claimed T. rex couldn't penetrate the bone of a sauropod. Hopefully he watches this.
Sorry you had to go through that.

@@KhanArtist3 most likely over "6 tons"
@@rodrigopinto6676 could be. Could be lower, especially with the amount of variation in skulls and size

I always wanted to know. Thank you☺️
Hope you enjoy!
It was revealed to paleontologists in a dream.

As in, for example, we have come to the conclusion that T rex’s bite force was around 6-8 tons or so per square inch, but how did we figure that out?
Probably over 8 tons...

Mosasaurus vs deinosuchus

Shut up please.
pls hyperpredator video

i like dinosaurs
This Tyrannosaurus Was Always Be Strongest Theropod Dinosaur In The World.
And the biggest
And Jack Horner must be so upset about it.
@@petarmilich8684 What Do You Mean Jack Horner Upset.
@@rodrigopinto6676 That's Right Bro 😎👍
Not really. Hundreds or even thousands of theropods exist that we still didnt discovered.
