The Real Jurassic Park - Documentary - 1993

- Опубліковано 5 лют 2025
- Here is an amazing documentary from 1993 that centers around how one would go about cloning dinosaurs, if it really were possible, what to do with the dinosaurs if they were realized, and if it was even ethical to begin with. It's hosted by Jeff Goldblum (Ian Malcolm from the film), and features author Michael Crichton, director Steven Spielberg, and the paleontologists who worked on the film; Jack Horner and Robert T. Bakker. While the focus on the documentary is primarily the fascinating questions and the proposed science, for fans of the film there are some unique glimpses of behind the scenes material and more. A real treat of a documentary that was only ever released on VHS, and worth preserving. My own transfer.
Written, produced, and directed by David Dugan, for NOVA on MCA/UNIVERSAL video.

Always did love these 90s and older documentaries.
Same
This documental makes me see and take the Jurassic Park's dinosaurs more real and serious, like they used to be. 😊
How have I not seen this yet? This is incredible.
Same😮
oh man I remember WAITING for this episode to come out on TV and bought it on VHS and obsessed over it!
1:00 stop it jeff you are making me blush with that walk.
No homo though, but he's such a good actor.
Love these documentaries ❤
This is really excellent, thanks!
They’re so preoccupied with whether or not they could, nobody stops to think if they should! 😂
The stupidity of that comment never decreases
GREAT documentary! Crazy this was made in 1993 and as far as I know, there hasnt been much advancement towards to creating a real dinosaur. I know Jack Horner has been trying for years, but the question is...when?
Speaking of Jack Horner, it's really cool to see him and Robert Bakker interact.
How tf have I not seen this before 😮
Awesome!
Oddly, I always heart that the DNA extraction wouldn't work because of the age. I didn't know that it actually did work! Combine the egg thing with AI to remove the ostrich cells, and we could see a high dinosaur retention rate.
The age is still a problem because it is all scrambled and _really_ long.
Using bird DNA as the base and making small changes over a few generations using viral insertion of DNA could work. It avoids the whole trouble of cloning, instead making the changes accumulate as the animals reproduce.
The major problem for once you've got a viable dinosaur embryo is the problem of gut flora.
Every creature has microorganisms in their intestinal tract that help them break down food, many are evolved for their specific host species, i.e. they are not found in any other animal. Creatures are not born with this gut flora, they have to ingest them to get a starter culture going (I'm not going to spell out how).
Problem with dinosaurs is, that all the gut flora for each species went extinct with them, and no amount of amber harvesting or bone grinding is going to find you the DNA for those little germs.
Life.. yuh.. finds a way 😂

💀💀😭 I’m dead
How close are we?
Omg I love this documentary! I wish I was there too!
Oh and there's Jack Horner 😒
What’s wrong with jack???
I wish this PBS NOVA Documentary was available on DVD like most of my other favorite ones. 42:02 Hey I know what that is, it’s a Cuban Crocodile.
Just save it download it as is or convert it to a convenient file type for streaming or burning to a blank DVD
@@rezzer7918 Or perhaps write a letter to the TV station in New York that is involved with PBS Programs & request it to be released on DVD along with some other NOVA Documentaries. Including the some of the other NATURE Programs & some other PBS Documentaries like that 4 part documentary The Dinosaurs! In 1992.
I think I need to start up a lab on the island where my cabin is situated 😂
After you make the dinos make sure you get a large team like Ingen and move those suckers to one of jeffrey epsteins secret islands to kill those bastards..
Magic! Love it ❤
I miss the 90s
Honestly, with how much technology and knowledge of biology/genetics has advanced between then and now, I believe it's getting closer and closer to be possible. Of course, they wouldn't really be TRUE dinosaurs, it would be more like the dinosaurs of Jurassic Park, 'theme park monsters' designed to look like an approximation of dinosaurs
This all very fine, but ...I'm a biologist. One thing everybody should know is that we are not our DNA. An embryo is the result of a dynamic interaction between the mother's egg and/or placenta and the zygote (fertilized ovule). In IVF, a fertilized egg divides up to the blastocyst stage (70-100 cells) before it must be implanted into a mother's uterus. If we're talking of a bird's egg, replace uterus with all the "information" contained within the egg itself, especially a host of bird proteins and RNAs. Anything past the implantation depends on the interaction with the mother/parental egg, like when and how every particular dinosaur part would develop. The more your modern bird diverges from the model organism (eg velociraptor vs T rex), the closer to the original dinosaur you must be. A velociraptor? Perhaps, with lots of information. A T rex? Forget it.
Charlie is one cool bird , hes just chilling in the background minding his own business
The dinosaurs of Jurassic Park being a collection of dinosaur parts was part of the novel's plot wasn't it?
30 years of advancing technology, and we still can’t create living dinosaurs!
We can make much younger species, though. Idk how much we tried yet, but we literally have perfectly frozen remains of mammoths and such…
But Dinosaurs? Or really anything from anywhere near that long ago? Where would we get the DNA? I wish I could say… I feel we may have to take another opproach technologically to even guess such a thing.
We literally have movies explaining why that's a bad idea
@@Exzimius Movies are meant to have conflict. Who would want to watch a Jurassic Park movie where the dinosaurs don't break out and nothing happens? It's a movie.
@@Madchimpz Tell me you didn't understand the point of the movie without telling me.
@@ExzimiusYou don’t see animals breaking out of zoos, now do you? It’s just a movie. I’m sure we could contain dinosaurs. Besides, the park literally only failed because of Nedry.
Birds are dinosaurs
IDK about that. To recreate a past Species is to recreate the Environment that it adapted in. I don't understand why no one of science says that.
Mostly because it isn't true
@@PercyTinglish Ok, well, how is that so?
@@justletmepostthis276 how is it not? You think sheep adapted on a farm? We can and do create environments for animals that are vastly better than the ones they adapted in
If we terraform Mars, I saw we make mars Dino Planet!
Horseshoe Crabs r essential! ☝️
49:20 People keep saying things like this, ignorant of what a claw is.
More realistic than Jurassic World... which is NOT Jurassic Park...
Chris pratt would argue with you he was able to doggy train velociraptors.....
Jurassic park was never supposed to be realistic talking about a movie that has cloning dinosaurs
@@henrymockingbird9645 its not that its supposed to mimic real life its the fact that the newer movies are more like b horror movies missing that aesthetic that it used to have.
@@Riddlesinthedark1
Unfortunately...
By Jurassic World... Jurassic Park has turned into a clown show...
@@henrymockingbird9645
at least, Jurassic Park movies before JW were supposed to be more believable...
Yo Alex (velociraptor4you), if you ever read this: Hello! Lol
39:56 Jack Horner once again, talking about Tyrannousaurus being a scavenger! Seriously man, get over it! >:(
He said this a long time ago. Maybe he things differently now.
Interesting how they call the rex on set a HE all the time, I wonder how the name Roberta came to be?
They just call her Rexy these days
I'm sure if we had the technology to create a dinosaur, we would also have the technology to modify the DNA to make the dinosaurs smaller to be manageable.
And alter behavioral patterns so you could have them as pets. Imagine a couple small raptors just chilling in a cat tree, complaining when you don't get em food fast enough, or a birdcage with a couple tiny pteranodons
It would be so cool if there were actually real dinosaur fossils to go by and not just some scientists who will do anything for another grant.
as cool as it would be to see a real life dinosaur its not a good idea tho coz humans and dinosaurs could not co-exist it would be suicidal and disastrous
Yo fire, first
Therizinosaur should have been in JP3
The level of oxygen in the atmosphere was so much bigger compared to today it wouldn’t be the same plus the changes in DNA would make them different.
Sometimes it’s better not to meet your heroes
Cant really bring back dinosaurs there dna 65 million years and more is difficult, but people are working on bringing prehistoric animals back from a later period,not dinosaurs more like the mammoth,🦖🦣.
Human cloning is the next big thing - takes precedence over dumb dinos - more lucrative
its 2024 wheres the dinosaurs lol cmon elon get it done ;)
He’s too busy jacking himself off, unfortunately
That was boring
Yes a cautionary tale against doing it. Why it was called "Jurassic Park" which was incorrect instead of "Cretaceous Park" showing their lack of knowledge.
Actually the movies had several dinosaurs from different eras. Even the triassic.
Oh give it a rest. So pretentious.
