I'll never understand why Tyrannosaurus being the biggest is still causing so much discussion. If you take a look at the skeletons from the front/back you'll notice just how much wider they were compared to almost all other predators. They were absolute units.
There are similar debates in other fields of animal study, and ones that are even more controversial. In snakes for example, the “biggest snake” is often listed as the anaconda, but several large pythons are significantly longer than anacondas are, though are leaner and weigh less. Reticulated pythons for example. The max lengths of both snakes are not even close. The longest ever anaconda was 17 feet long, and the largest Reticulated Python was nearly 28 feet long. So many people consider Retics and other large pythons that routinely grow longer than 17 feet as “larger” than anacondas, which are short and stocky.
Exactly, it's like looking at a gorilla next to a human and not being able to realize that the gorilla is clearly going to be double to triple the weight. Relatively small appearing differences in skeletal width and robustness appear to lead to much more significant mass in real life - eg a bear skeleton vs a large big cat skeleton may not look that different in length or height but a polar bear can weigh up to 1000kg compared to a huge 300kg big cat. If anything, the more skeletons are found, the more likely it is that T-Rex will keep getting larger in maximum estimate given it's uniquely robust build compared to all the other megatherapods. The sheer number of massive individuals of T-Rex already found does seem to agree with the idea that we're only seeing examples from the middle of the bell curve, with monstrous examples of 10-12 tonnes probably being relatively common up to this proposed 15T max weight.
Interestingly if this was theropods, so omnivores as well, Deinocheirus and Therizinosaurus would be up there with the big wigs. Absolute units those weirdos were.
@@Dinosaurssongs Spinosaurus was longer but T.rex was heavier, and size is based on weight so the T.rex is the largest. For a while people vastly overestimated the size of the Spino and thought it was bigger, but now the Spino is estamented to be 6.5 to 8 tons while the T.rex is around 9-11 tons

The cast skeleton of Giganotosaurus in Plaza Huincul Museum is exactly 12,00 m long with oversized skull. So the t-rex was longer, taller and much heavier than Giga. The second Giga specimen wasn't bigger than the holotype, I have picture (not composite picture) about the two dentry fragment, in the picture they are on a table a few cm apart, and they are exactly the same size.

@@VeganSanatani This is the most stupidest and outright idiotic shit you could have ever said. To you paleontology is nothing but a mere result of who would win in a fight to death or something. Educate yourself. People with a brain actually work for hours and hours to find the slighest piece of information. Paleontology isn't a mere guesswork.

Anyways when it spinosaurus, there is absolutely zero evidence of spino ever outright reaching the weights of t rex. Also we have recovered like 70% of the creature with the discovery of the tail. The mystery related to the creature revolves around it's behaviour, arrangements of certain bones, and the need for such unique characteristics.
Inside my head: -T-rex: biggest in terms of weight. -Spinosaurus: biggest in terms of longest carnivor (no question about that). -Giganotosaurus: biggest in terms of height (at least I think he is maybe). That’s my thought about the big three on this list.
T-Rex: Not the tallest, not the longest, but it's an absolute unit who'd probably man handle most other animals with it's bulk alone, even before it bit them.
Spinosaurus was just THAT fragmentary, they didn’t have enough info to make smart guesses, and the guesses they made were also flawed as the Spinosaurus being. Bigger then trex trend was hyping up Understandable back then, but if you do it now your kinda dumb
Top 10 biggest carnivores you'd ever see outside the ocean 1: A big dinosaur 3: A big dinosaur 4: A big dinosaur 5: A big dinosaur 6: Spinosaurus 7: Giganotosaurus 8: A big alligator 9: Tyrannosaurus rex 10: Mosasaurus (they sometimes swam up rivers)
Spinosaurus is by far the biggest land carnivore the world has ever seen, far exceeding T-Rex in size except to T-Rex cultists who base their estimates on biased opinion.
This video you made is so amazing that It makes me respect you 2X more than I normally do this video was awesome and I will always love your channel you truly are a great youtuber and a great paleontologist who only speaks fax
Interesting fact (or is it a hater bait idk): there was one estimate for spinosaurus but that was outdated Spinosaurus was once 17 meters but due to later studies and the discovery of its tail, it shrank down to 13.1 or 14 meters The weight also changed from 11 tons to 8 tons same weight as our beloved mosasaurs Teeth size stayed the same (I owned one of its teeth)
the part of me that's still an undiagnosed small child from 25 years ago with a gloriously specific special interest is just so delighted by this channel
The fact that I was in a debate about this very thing yesterday on POT 😂 and said rex was the biggest and I was told “ no it’s the spino and that it outweighs rex” I was like “okay buddy lmao”
Good list, but I read a lot about dinosaurs since years. And Torvosaurus is big, but not as you said. Probably had up to 9-9,5 m and only the oldest specimens reach up to 10-11m. Average weight is 3-3,5 tons. Tyranotitan was also smaller. Probably in size simillar to Mapusaurus or even smaller. 11,3-11,8 m is averaged size to the first big Carcharodontosauroid.
I am happy most of my favorite dinosaurs got on the list like Spinosaurus Giganotosaurus Acrocanthosaurs Carcharodontosaurus Unfortunately, Ceratosaurus is to small 😭
There’s been a lotta contention recently concerning the new giga estimates being larger than T. rex so lemme explain the best that I can. Dan Folkes recently put the largest giga specimen at 10.4 metric tons, tying with his measurements for the largest Rex specimen (Scotty) at 10.4 metric tons as well. (However he admits this measurement isn’t as precise as his previous giga estimate.) Some are also pushing a 10.5 tonne estimate for the giga specimen, making it heavier than Dan’s rex measurements, making Giganotosaurus the biggest theropod by this standard. However it should be mentioned that Dan’s 10.4 tonne Rex measurement is on the low end when compared with other estimates from different sources. Conservative estimates for Scotty place her at around 10.6 tonnes, already outweighing giga’s new weight, not to mention the high end being around 11 tonnes. With these estimates I think it is safer to assume T. rex is still the largest theropod in terms of weight as of 2023, but If you decide to side with Dan’s 10.4 tonne Scotty estimate, I rlly have no problem with that. It’s important to remember that knowing the precise weight of a long dead animal is close to impossible, so this information is subject to change. It’s also important to not get hostile towards someone just because they propose ur favorite dinosaur may be smaller than another.
@AL-qs9bl I understand 10.5 and 10.6 metric tons translates to 11 tons. I was being more precise, as opposed to referring to the measurements as just 11 tons. The 11 tonne estimate I got from here docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/10kENNmyqPts-fv-nCgK4Rse5YggniHiVTvj6BVv1JDo/htmlview# Even if I did make it up, 11 tonnes wouldn’t be a far fetched estimate to propose. What I’m saying is that given the estimate ranges for both T. rex and giga I think it is safer to assume T. rex is the largest theropod when the opposition is based on a single person’s estimates for a very fragmentary specimen, but again if you side with Dan’s measurements it’s fine by me. God bless🙏
@@Protest467stop with the goddamn 10.5 tonne giga, no actual paleontologist puts it at that size, the largest estimate is 10.4 tonnes by Dan Folkes, T.rex is still the largest, unless you believe in the 10.4 tonne Scotty, but even then they're equal.
I know this is a 3 month old vid, but even at the time, mapusaurus was the third largest carnivorous dinosaur, bigger than acrocanthosaurus and tyrannotitan, right?
Actually it's less probable. Megaraptors belong to Megalosauria, andbwe are yet to find evidence of feathers in Megalosaurs. They definitely has Pycnofibers though.
The latest research shows us that Megaraptorans were likely part of the coelurosaurians, likely an offshoot of tyrannosaurs. So yes, they probably did have feathers
Hi bud, sorry I’ve never seemed to catch your name and I hate calling you Bud but ehh… anyway you said to comment on what you were saying and my most humble thoughts are that I would think that the carnivores would first be trying to go for young or injured individuals and not fit, in shape ones that could easily injure them. Also, I would imagine they would also be on the lookout for dead or dying creatures or stealing from carnivores that were smaller or easily intimidated… just like the carnivores that exist today. You’ve probably already said all this in previous episodes but I’m old as dirt and probably missed that… so I apologize if that’s the case. I thoroughly enjoy your channel and videos though so I hope you keep making them… it’s hard to find such good content like you provide. I’ll stop now as I tend to rattle on… hope life treats you well sir!
The tyrant king remains the top. But it’s insane how many charcharo family members there are in the list. The largest members were almost certainly apex predators in their niches. Charcharodontosaurus probably was the most dominant animal even with spinosaurus in its environment
@@SuspiciousSandalsFromIstanbul yes, but charcharo came out on top more often then not, it was perfectly evolved to be effective in land and take down large game. Indicative of an apex predator Spinosaurus was highly specialized, complete opposite
@@GODEYE270115 Yet all fossil evidence of their interactions suggest completely otherwise. Plus you do realize Sereno's paper and even David Hone fully suggests Spinosaurus was more of a generalist right? lol.
@@carnoraptor79 ok what fossils suggest spinosaurus was the more dominant one? As I recall the broken spine vertebrae was a primary example of their interaction, and that only proved Charcharo not only fought, but it was tall enough to reach the top of its spines. And yes most apex predators are generalist/opportunistic by nature, but spinosaurus was not evolved to maneuver as efficiently on land. Charcharo had long powerful legs perfectly evolved for land mobility, on top of it we know it hunted large game. Spinosaurus was not equipped to take down large Dinos. The apex role was definitely filled by charcharodontosaurus
@@GODEYE270115 Yet that one broken neural process literally showed signs of healing which meant the Spino survived the encounter. There was also another fossil where a Spinosaurus tooth was lodged inside a Carcharodontosaurus back vertebrae that didn't show signs of healing, which also proved Spino's jaws can do alot more damage than what most people want to believe. Yet real life nature proves varying degrees of dominance. A Jaguar is the top land predator of its area yet it prefers to keep its distance from an adult Anteater more often than not who is even more of a specialist than Spinosaurus was.
According to recent research mapusaurus is much larger than that. It’s around 12 metres in length and weighs about 7.5 tons. One things for sure it’s larger than Acrocanthosaurus and tyrannotitan. Mapusaurus used to be believed to be small but it’s well known now that it could grow quite large. Thought you were using the maximum estimates? The largest mapusaurus is not 6 tons
Bro says that then ignores where Dan Folkes got Scotty to 10.4t which would make them equal, and also ignores Fran's giga which is just as if not more reliable than Dan's dentary due to dentary scaling being iffy at best
@@Protest467 Fran is a fucking paleontologist, not some random guy, I severely doubt he wouldn't update his skeletals with new information Furthermore his stuff is also backed by Scott Hartman
Epanterias amplexus was not in list but i say the size of these dinosaur Speciesmen : AHNH 5767 lenght : 12.42 meter Weight: 5,700 kilograms But COOOL AND NICE VIDEO I LOVEE THISSS
Maybe I just need to cope lol and accept the fact that spino wasn't bigger than rex, but of all those theropods I think a spinosaurus of all of them could be proven to be larger. Because water could help support their weight. Either way I love both Rex and Spino so it doesn't actually bother me.
Could lions even pierce a T-Rex's skin? They struggle to pierce the skin of elephants hippos and buffalo and I'm pretty sure a Rex has thicker skin that any of those
Trex is first place for being the heaviest land carnivore, but I think we can agree the spino takes first place for being the longest and probably (this is just my guess) the tallest land carnivore
Hi loved the video learned a lot from you in the last week and this is my Day 1 of asking you to do a episode or short on Australian dinosaurs or something like that.
Your sizes seem so be somewhat outdated, as you seem to be using slightly outdated sizes. Saurophaganax recently got a size increase, and is now believed to be an Allosauroid, instead of an Allosaurid. (Reaching between 6-7 tons.) Acrocanthosaurus maxed out at 5.8 tonnes, so lets round it to ~6 tons. Mapusaurus hasn't gotten any good weight estimates. The newest one is currently 7.9 tons, but most just lump in its weight with Giga (Since it's literally a evolved Giga) Torvosaurus G. is 4.8 tons, and isn't the largest Megalosaurid. That title goes to Megalosauridae Indet., which reached 5.8 tonnes. Tyrannotitan's most acceptable estimate atm is 6.98 tons. The list would be (Ignoring indets) 1. T. rex (11 tonnes max.) 2. Giga. carolinii (8.8-9.6 tonnes) 3. Mapu. Rosae (7.9-9.6 tonnes 4. Spino. aegyptiacus (7-8 tonnes) 5. Carhar. saharicus (7.3 tonnes) 6. Sauro. maximus (~7 tonnes) 7. Tyrano. chubutensis (6.98 tonnes) 8. Acro. atokensis (5.8 tonnes) 9. Zhuch. magnus (5.75 tonnes) 10. Meraxes Gigas (5.7 tonnes) Sidenote: I skipped some due to being Indets., or unreliable. Ones I skipped are; Sauroniops pachytholus (7.71 tonnes), "Epanterias" amplexus (5.7 tonnes), and Megalosauridae Indet. (5.73 tonnes).
I don't believe those Saurophaganax and sauroniops estimates, even though I'm a paleo nerd and not a specialist, sauroniops is like 11.3 meters long and 5 tons, Saurophaganax would be like 4.5 tons, I saw those estimates on an unreliable spreadsheet, they were in red, so looked around and saw that red names mean that the estimates are false
@@thechillspinosaurus7913 The red estimates mean its unreliable, the spreadsheet has not been updated. The reason as to why Sauro is in red is because we don’t have the certain weight yet. It is between 6.7 and 7 tonnes. I already said I skipped Sauron due to the unreliable weight estimate, as it is 1 bone.

T. rex was probably a very smarter animal
That is the most batshit insane theory ever

Interesting fact (or is it a hater bait idk): there was one estimate for spinosaurus but that was outdated
Spinosaurus was once 17 meters but due to later studies and the discovery of its tail, it shrank down to 13.1 or 14 meters

Good list, but I read a lot about dinosaurs since years. And Torvosaurus is big, but not as you said. Probably had up to 9-9,5 m and only the oldest specimens reach up to 10-11m. Average weight is 3-3,5 tons. Tyranotitan was also smaller. Probably in size simillar to Mapusaurus or even smaller. 11,3-11,8 m is averaged size to the first big Carcharodontosauroid.
3 tons Torvosaurus is likely American specimen, European specimen is 5 tons

Hell yeah I have loved dinosaurs since I was a little lad
There’s been a lotta contention recently concerning the new giga estimates being larger than T. rex so lemme explain the best that I can.
Dan Folkes recently put the largest giga specimen at 10.4 metric tons, tying with his measurements for the largest Rex specimen (Scotty) at 10.4 metric tons as well. (However he admits this measurement isn’t as precise as his previous giga estimate.) Some are also pushing a 10.5 tonne estimate for the giga specimen, making it heavier than Dan’s rex measurements, making Giganotosaurus the biggest theropod by this standard.
However it should be mentioned that Dan’s 10.4 tonne Rex measurement is on the low end when compared with other estimates from different sources. Conservative estimates for Scotty place her at around 10.6 tonnes, already outweighing giga’s new weight, not to mention the high end being around 11 tonnes.
With these estimates I think it is safer to assume T. rex is still the largest theropod in terms of weight as of 2023, but If you decide to side with Dan’s 10.4 tonne Scotty estimate, I rlly have no problem with that.
It’s important to remember that knowing the precise weight of a long dead animal is close to impossible, so this information is subject to change. It’s also important to not get hostile towards someone just because they propose ur favorite dinosaur may be smaller than another.
@AL-qs9bl I understand 10.5 and 10.6 metric tons translates to 11 tons. I was being more precise, as opposed to referring to the measurements as just 11 tons.
The 11 tonne estimate I got from here docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/10kENNmyqPts-fv-nCgK4Rse5YggniHiVTvj6BVv1JDo/htmlview#
Even if I did make it up, 11 tonnes wouldn’t be a far fetched estimate to propose.
What I’m saying is that given the estimate ranges for both T. rex and giga I think it is safer to assume T. rex is the largest theropod when the opposition is based on a single person’s estimates for a very fragmentary specimen, but again if you side with Dan’s measurements it’s fine by me. God bless🙏

This is my favorite channel on UA-cam.
Hi bud, sorry I’ve never seemed to catch your name and I hate calling you Bud but ehh… anyway you said to comment on what you were saying and my most humble thoughts are that I would think that the carnivores would first be trying to go for young or injured individuals and not fit, in shape ones that could easily injure them. Also, I would imagine they would also be on the lookout for dead or dying creatures or stealing from carnivores that were smaller or easily intimidated… just like the carnivores that exist today.
You’ve probably already said all this in previous episodes but I’m old as dirt and probably missed that… so I apologize if that’s the case. I thoroughly enjoy your channel and videos though so I hope you keep making them… it’s hard to find such good content like you provide.
I’ll stop now as I tend to rattle on… hope life treats you well sir!
You are 100 percent on the money there good sir. Any carnivore will take the easy prey, rather than the one they have to work for.
Your work is a gem
The tyrant king remains the top. But it’s insane how many charcharo family members there are in the list. The largest members were almost certainly apex predators in their niches. Charcharodontosaurus probably was the most dominant animal even with spinosaurus in its environment
I think charcharodontosaurus fought spinosaurus
@@SuspiciousSandalsFromIstanbul yes, but charcharo came out on top more often then not, it was perfectly evolved to be effective in land and take down large game. Indicative of an apex predator
Spinosaurus was highly specialized, complete opposite
@@GODEYE270115 Yet all fossil evidence of their interactions suggest completely otherwise. Plus you do realize Sereno's paper and even David Hone fully suggests Spinosaurus was more of a generalist right? lol.
@@carnoraptor79 ok what fossils suggest spinosaurus was the more dominant one? As I recall the broken spine vertebrae was a primary example of their interaction, and that only proved Charcharo not only fought, but it was tall enough to reach the top of its spines.
And yes most apex predators are generalist/opportunistic by nature, but spinosaurus was not evolved to maneuver as efficiently on land. Charcharo had long powerful legs perfectly evolved for land mobility, on top of it we know it hunted large game. Spinosaurus was not equipped to take down large Dinos. The apex role was definitely filled by charcharodontosaurus
@@GODEYE270115 Yet that one broken neural process literally showed signs of healing which meant the Spino survived the encounter. There was also another fossil where a Spinosaurus tooth was lodged inside a Carcharodontosaurus back vertebrae that didn't show signs of healing, which also proved Spino's jaws can do alot more damage than what most people want to believe.
Yet real life nature proves varying degrees of dominance. A Jaguar is the top land predator of its area yet it prefers to keep its distance from an adult Anteater more often than not who is even more of a specialist than Spinosaurus was.
Imagine a 15 ton T-Rex, an absolute tank of a carnivore if evidence comes to light some day.
According to recent research mapusaurus is much larger than that. It’s around 12 metres in length and weighs about 7.5 tons. One things for sure it’s larger than Acrocanthosaurus and tyrannotitan. Mapusaurus used to be believed to be small but it’s well known now that it could grow quite large. Thought you were using the maximum estimates? The largest mapusaurus is not 6 tons

Maybe I just need to cope lol and accept the fact that spino wasn't bigger than rex, but of all those theropods I think a spinosaurus of all of them could be proven to be larger. Because water could help support their weight. Either way I love both Rex and Spino so it doesn't actually bother me.
Well theres like 50 debates about spinosaurus and one of them is whether its swam to hunt or not
No cause it smaller,sorry but only 8 tons compared to max 11 tons of rex?Yea trex more large

Hi loved the video learned a lot from you in the last week and this is my Day 1 of asking you to do a episode or short on Australian dinosaurs or something like that.
Your sizes seem so be somewhat outdated, as you seem to be using slightly outdated sizes.
Saurophaganax recently got a size increase, and is now believed to be an Allosauroid, instead of an Allosaurid. (Reaching between 6-7 tons.)
Acrocanthosaurus maxed out at 5.8 tonnes, so lets round it to ~6 tons.
Mapusaurus hasn't gotten any good weight estimates. The newest one is currently 7.9 tons, but most just lump in its weight with Giga (Since it's literally a evolved Giga)
Torvosaurus G. is 4.8 tons, and isn't the largest Megalosaurid. That title goes to Megalosauridae Indet., which reached 5.8 tonnes.
Tyrannotitan's most acceptable estimate atm is 6.98 tons.
The list would be (Ignoring indets)
1. T. rex (11 tonnes max.)
2. Giga. carolinii (8.8-9.6 tonnes)
3. Mapu. Rosae (7.9-9.6 tonnes
4. Spino. aegyptiacus (7-8 tonnes)
5. Carhar. saharicus (7.3 tonnes)
6. Sauro. maximus (~7 tonnes)
7. Tyrano. chubutensis (6.98 tonnes)
8. Acro. atokensis (5.8 tonnes)
9. Zhuch. magnus (5.75 tonnes)
10. Meraxes Gigas (5.7 tonnes)
Sidenote: I skipped some due to being Indets., or unreliable.
Ones I skipped are; Sauroniops pachytholus (7.71 tonnes), "Epanterias" amplexus (5.7 tonnes), and Megalosauridae Indet. (5.73 tonnes).
I don't believe those Saurophaganax and sauroniops estimates, even though I'm a paleo nerd and not a specialist, sauroniops is like 11.3 meters long and 5 tons, Saurophaganax would be like 4.5 tons, I saw those estimates on an unreliable spreadsheet, they were in red, so looked around and saw that red names mean that the estimates are false
Saurophaganax especially, there's no way it would be almost as heavy as a bulky Deinocheirus, so I reasonably would say Saurophaganax is 4.5 tons
@@thechillspinosaurus7913 The red estimates mean its unreliable, the spreadsheet has not been updated.
The reason as to why Sauro is in red is because we don’t have the certain weight yet. It is between 6.7 and 7 tonnes.
