Real Dinosaur on the Loose in a Museum Makes Learning Fun, Extremely Dangerous

I didn't know what to expect from this video, till I hit the play button and almost crapped my pants. Not because I was scared (ok, maybe a little) but at how cool the dinosaur is and how realistic. WOW
I can see how some of the little kids are freaked.....

On the lighter side, how about one of the best Slip 'n Slides ever made:

Me like. I wonder when someone shoves it because they are a punk kid and it falls over onto someone squishing them. Or how about ROGUE AI GETTING INTO IT, MAKING IT KILL AND DESTROY! MWA HA HA HA HA

Oh uh... I mean. I like it.

Re: Real Dinosaur on the Loose in a Museum Makes Learning Fun, Extremely Dangerous

Well, whenever I'm in a museum, theres a real dinosaur on the loose because I'm a sexual Tyrannosaurus.

If you havent read the "give us this day our daily sex" thread, you wont get it.

It's a puppet, right?

Still really neato.

Huh. A free robot. I wonder if it has a cable assisting it with balance, of if they're just that good.

Re: Real Dinosaur on the Loose in a Museum Makes Learning Fun, Extremely Dangerous

I was waiting to post about it to see how long it took for others to notice (Mr. Cingular )

If you look closely, it is a giant puppet. You can see a person's legs underneath doing the walking. But still very amazing.

Re: Real Dinosaur on the Loose in a Museum Makes Learning Fun, Extremely Dangerous

hehe...I showed this to my kids last night, and they read the "Real Dinsoaur" headline, and were astonished. They kept looking at me in disbelief and amazement that this museum had a real dinosaur. Then my 10 year old finally noticed the odd looking human legs. It's pretty fun toying with your kids with something like this though. I remember being pretty dang gullible when I was a kid.

Re: Real Dinosaur on the Loose in a Museum Makes Learning Fun, Extremely Dangerous

It's from the Walking with Dinosaurs Live Experience show that's touring the country... Took my 4 yr old last weekend and he nearly pissed his pants with excitement! Definitely worth the $60 tickets!

Re: Real Dinosaur on the Loose in a Museum Makes Learning Fun, Extremely Dangerous

Ahh, ok, was wondering how they were doing that museum show. Was gonna say, thats a lotta very well made robots, they can't be making enough money off it to pay for them that way.
