So yeah, they are truly unusual in that regard, even actually compared to a lot of the other very big tyrannosaurs.
They're often a kind of step above in their proportions.
So incredible crushing power in the jar.
Yeah.
And then as you say, like this really short bull neck, because you've got this massive weight of this head up front, so you need to hold it up and not tip forwards.
Really quite a massive body.
Again, there's two or three other big carnivorous dinosaurs, which people argue are maybe they're a little bigger than T-Rex, maybe they're a little smaller, but it's always in terms of length.
which is one way of looking at things.
You know, pythons are very long, but they're nothing like as massive as, yeah, a lion or a tiger.
Same thing.
T-Rex is massive.
It is built.
So really big kind of barrel-shaped chest, making the body very, very big as well.
And so that's why, yeah, there's things like Giganotosaurus and Mapusaurus in South America.
Maybe they get a bit longer, another meter or so in length.
But in mass, we're talking about maybe only two-thirds, three-quarters.
So T-Rex is just massively bigger than basically any other big carnivore we know of.
And then, yeah, little arms, as you say.
So this is not great, but it's a cast of a T-Rex arm.
It's not the biggest animal.
