Description
A colaberative effort between , , and SSS (aka Phanom scaler.) (the guy who still needs to get a DA), (for watching), and (for criticizing them without actually helping.)resulted in mass estimates for Several theropods, most impresively a gdi of spinosaurus that puts it at around 7- 8 tons. (I won't disclose the precise weight, you will have to stay tuned to their DA's for that
)so, who was the heaviest?
well; Sue the tyrannosaurus now displays the title of world's fattest theropod quite proudly.

what about the Mapusaurus Specimen MCF-PVPH-108.145 ?
if its 10% bigger than the Giganotosaurus holotype, then it would be 13.64 meters long and 9 tonnes.

That specimen is likely larger than Sue, but that doesn't necessarily mean Mapusaurus is larger than Tyrannosaurus as a whole.

You're right about the mapusaurus, but not right about the topic, giganotosaurus was larger than the Rex and was heavier, I own a copy of the dinosaurs grand tour book as proof.

? Try taking taking a look at Hartmans 2013 post xD

Just checked, and the Mapusaurus is 4.9 tons, the Giganotosaurus, 7.8 tons. So nope you're still wrong.

can i see an online source for this information?
and which mapusaurus specimen is it talking about? also i was referring to the fact that Tyrannosaurus was probably heavier than Giganotosaurus.

^ Scott Hartman.
Tyrannosaurus rex size.
A mathematical analysis on Giganotosaurus mass.
^Franoys
the largest mapusaurus was roughly the same size as the largest (complete) Giganotosaurus.

if anyone here is wrong its you.

1. I am not wrong. Second, it's talking about mapusaurus roseae. Third,it was five feet off from being Giga size. 4. According to my copy of the book, the Rex wasn't heavier, it was 5.9 tons, and as I said before, the Giganotosaurus, is 7.8 tons.
You make great a great point, but if there's any theropod (excluding spinosaurus) that is bigger and heavier than mapusaurus roseae, or Tyrannosaurus rex, it's Giganotosaurus.

"1. I am not wrong." holy shit you are the epitome of egocentric

is this book written by a paleontologist? if so who? and i would like to know when it was written.
in any case, its not as reliable as Hartman or Franoys.

Let's just agree to disagree, all right?

im not familiar with most Mapusaurus specimens, do you know what the average size would be?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Not really, but I would guess something like ~10-14 meters and ~5-9 tonnes just to be safe.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
do you know the size of the smallest adult?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
No clear idea since cross-scaling those disarticulated elements is a bitch, but maybe like ~10 meters or so.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
so maybe 11.82 meters long and 5.89 tonnes?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Maybe, that falls within the range. Mapusaurus is so disarticulated and hard to cross-scale that it's better off to just give a massive range to encompass all the plausible adult size estimates.

thats too bad... it potentially one of the largest theropods discovered yet we cant determine its size.

To aka ThaRandomAnchiornis1:
Please fuck off already. You're nothing but a delusional, misandrist, ignorant, close-minded, idiotic feathernazi and Miocene fetishist. You can go back to your hiding place and continue worshipping feathered creatures as gods, but keep the filth to yourself.

If I were you, I would block timelordeternal/ThaRandomAnchiornis1 just as and I did. It's not worth keeping him able to spam his rancid nonsense on your page.
👍: 1 ⏩: 2
So I'm now wondering. Who was TheRandomAnchiornis1? I have seen comments from the deactivated account. Why do you feel like he is the same as timelordeternal?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
He has the exact same post structure, behaviour, and problems.
👍: 0 ⏩: 0
but your not me.
here's the thing, I highly value free speech, and I won't block anyone unless they are a real nuisance.
he doesn't seem to have posted more than a couple times on my art, and imo doesn't seem to have posted anything I consider all that harmful.
if you have a problem with him, talk it out with him and you two may find a resolve. or agree to disagree
I don't care, that's on you both.
also:
spino is only lighter than t rex by a little bit, my new spino may be about the same weight, if not more than T. rex, so take that new info into consideration.

I hope you recognize fanboyism when you see it.

I won't ban someone for being a fanboy, if they start a fight, that's another matter

I know, but don't take what he says TOO seriously, just saying
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
why would I take what he says seriously... I mean it looks like it's pure satire/ sarcasm
regardless of weather it is genuine or not

I still prefer Tyrannosaurus so much over Spinosaurus, Tyrannosaurs were such majestic and neat dinosaurs

Tyrannosaurus and its kind will always triumph over all of them pathetic non coelurosaurian theropods like majungasaurus, carcharodontosaurus, spinosaurus, allosaurus, ceratosaurus, mapusaurus and carnotaurus
DEAL WITH IT!
COELUROSAUR MASTER RACE FOR THE WIN!

I really love Coelurosaurs
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
They are the most unique and groundbreaking group of dinosaurs to have ever existed
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
They are the least reptilian of all the dinosaur groups and plus have a wide diversity as well coming in all shapes and sizes

You should see My journal about them

I did, nice coelurosaur PR there!
BTW, what is this I hear of you being TheRandomAnchiornis1? And why is it so important?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Thanks
It is no big deal, nothing that truly matters anymore
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Well who was TheRandomAnchiornis1? And why do I keep seeing the person get mentioned? Did you know the person?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
It really does not matter, I don't care about that stuff one bit
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Also, does Knuckles sound familiar to you? Does SEGA?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
You didn't really expect ThaRandomAnchiornis1 to outright admit his identity, did you?
Even though it's painfully obvious who he is.

You'd think the Corey Kessinger would've learned his lesson from his past mistakes. But alas, the poor soul never learned and he is most likely going to make himself a target for trolls.
I wonder how that will play out.

The way he answers the questions, I can tell he's a guilty man.

Yeah, he has nothing to his defense.

Tyrannosaurus is so much cooler than Gigantosaurus, Carcharodontosaurus and Spinosaurus could ever dream of being
