T-Rex - Warrior or Wimp?


  T-Rex - Warrior or Wimp?


BBC - Horizon

Tyrannosaurus rex - it's the scariest, meanest, most bewitching dinosaur of them all. Children are captivated by the sheer savagery of the teeth. Experts marvelled at the force of its bite - ten times more powerful than anything we know today. Moviemakers made millions out of the terror it inspired. But could our picture of this monster be completely wrong?

Was T. rex in fact a slow lumbering creature, with hideously bad breath, that couldn't get anywhere close to catching a Triceratops. Was it really a scavenger that lived off the scraps left by others? Was T. rex, in fact, a wimp?

Featuring fabulous graphics and interviews with T. rex experts from around the world, Horizon looks at the new science that is challenging the legend of the dinosaur we love to hate.

The Dinosaur Mummy


  The Dinosaur Mummy

In 1999, on the hot and dry sandstones of Hell Creek in North Dakota, 16-year-old Tyler Lyson discovered the protruding spinal bones of a hadrosaur dinosaur.

Hadrosaur fossils are not uncommon though and Tyler didn't return to excavate the bones until 2004.

This particular hadrosaur, however, turned out to be a precious rarity.

Not only was the whole skeleton fossilised, so was some of the soft tissue as well.

Crater of Death


  Crater of Death - 45 mins.


Horizon

Investingating the theory that a meteriote crash wiped out the existance of dinosaurs.

This is the profile of an extraterrestrial mass murderer: one whose existence was denied by scientific orthodoxy for nearly two decades, but has now been tracked down. 65 million years ago a 15km wide asteroid hit the Earth.

In 1978 Walter Alvarez, a Nobel-prize-winning physicist, and his son Luis, first proposed the outrageous idea that a meteorite strike blasted the dinosaurs into extinction, taking with them half of life on the planet. Their theory was hotly disputed. Now the irrefutable evidence is rolling in.

Extreme Dinosaurs
Argetinasaurus


  Extreme Dinosaurs - Argetinasaurus - 45 mins.

Amazing new discoveries in South America are revolutionising what we thought we knew about the dinosaur world.

It now seems that South America was home to both the largest meat-eater - so new it's still without a name - and the largest herbivore - the enormous long-necked Argentinasaurus.

And what's more, these dinosaurs lived at the same time in the same place.

So it's possible that like in a science fiction movie, in this prehistoric world these two giants of their kind fought each other in a spectacular clash of the Titans.
