I'm really liking this show... I'm not sure I believe everything in this show but I definitely have my doubts about how the dinosaurs became extinct. I believe aliens exist and may have come to Earth. Mass extinction as some scientists theorize doesn't add up in my head. How can mass extinction take place and yet some species that predate the dinosaurs still thrive today?


I believe it's possible they could have been exterminated.

So you have a hard time believing a scientific certainty yet think it's plausible that aliens came from outer space and had a huge dinosaur cook-out.

That's all fine and dandy but not all dinosaurs were massive. This doesn't explain why the smaller ones died out too.
They didn't. Did you ever hear of a crocodile? They've been around for 55 million years

The dinosaurs were wiped out.

Yet birds, reptiles, fish, and mammals survived. Albeit with massive losses.

Why is this? Think about it. Think about how much the dinosaur probably had to eat to survive. The average African elephant has to eat 300lbs of food a day. Imagine what a Diplodocus or Brontosaurus, about 8 times larger, had to eat.

Suddenly, evolution favoured not the largest creatures, but those that could survive on what limited resources were about after and during the extinction events.
I support this theory as well

Yes Joe... I have a comprehension of time.
I just wondered because you mentioned 7 years of darkness. It's not like one decade the diansaurs were here and the next decade they weren't.

A 1,000 years is a drop in the bucket.

No, I can't say I've ever heard of a crocodile.

I could be wrong, but I believe that birds are the closet descendants to diansaurs that you will find.

Well they are a reptile very similar to an alligator. I'll see if I can rustle up a picture for you.
Here.. They have a similar one ( information pictures that is ) in one of my son's books..

No they weren't exterminated by aliens!



I took at that picture at the British Natural History Museum. In all fairness they had other pictures about how dinos could have died but that one was my favourite.
that's awesome. Tim, I just don't believe in the mass extinction theory. It doesn't add up.
