Even just watching the video made me think about why it evolved its features and especially the spines and I actually think it might of bin used to warm up blood in cold water by lifting it's spiny sail out of water for sun rays to hit it it allowing it to hunt under water for longer periods of time
I love how when naming these things the paleontologists can spend hours,days,years finding and putting together elaborate names based on deep rooted historical words with underlining means to convey the look and/or how the animal may have acted in life. then there are other paleontologists that are like 'Oh,i stubbed my toe in this thing's skull while digging it up,and it REALLY hurt... so i decided to name it "Stupid-penis-face-a-saurus" ,and that's just what the world is going to call it forever..
Irratator honestly needs more love, it’s a cool dinosaur with an interesting story, definitely up there with Deinocheirus and Skorpionevator when it comes with dinosaurs that really need more mainstream love
The Irritator is featured in Jurassic World: the Game. It's design looks awesome, even on level 40. Irritator is my second favorite dinosaur. I own a level 40.
Irritator is my favorite spinosaurid, and now i love it even more! Fantastic video, I learned quite a bit more about irritator, i did know a lot, but i found the discussion about the other skull fragment and the tooth in the pterosaur particularly interesting! Keep up the great work and congrats on 1k!
Thanks for the meticulous work you did to make this video, Henry. I really appreciate science videos created by people like you who take the time to get the details right. There is a lot of misinformation posted on You Tube, so it is a real pleasure to run across channels like yours that actually contain reliable information.
OMG!! Salt water and Nile crocodiles are terrifying enough; imagine the effect that the appearance of a few spinosaurs would have on a beach crowded with humans of a summer's day! In my opinion, the most dramatic depiction of spinosaurus was done a few years back by the paleo-artist Todd Marshall.
I was already in love with this channel for the excellent paleo vids, and then I hear Yellow Magic Orchestra Tong Poo playing in the background! Clearly yous have great taste as well as excellent knowledge :D
Oh my gosh, I didn't realize that my art was included in this video! I feel very humbled!! Thank you so much for seeing my art and considering it accurate enough to include in the bevy of depictions!
Was recommended your Neanderthal video and now I’m dedicated to catching up on all your uploads. I really enjoy your style of presentation! Thank you for sharing your research and knowledge with us!!
I really like this style of video, and all your other weekly stuff. Your channel is so perfect for me ( I volunteer at the paleontology department at my museum and I am a big bird watcher) I really appreciate what you do have a nice day
Amazing video Henry if I could recommend you should do one on Primitive carcharodontosaurian like Concavenator I have never heard anybody talk about those before not a lot people talk about them only speaking about that debate of Concavenator arms whether they are feathered or bulky
I'm always searching for subjects in your videos. Sparsely do I add to my channel sub list, bravo good sir. You got madd narration game my friend! I imagine you working on that sounds & cutting your own sound out of that out that basic format mold. Perhaps your personality shining through the cracks illuminating your genuine passion..art for art's sake(opposed to art for the sake of $). As the shape morphs your quality improves creating. Keep the content coming from your heart
As a Brazilian paleonerd If there is something that i have about brazil's fossils is that If it isn't well preserverd then it is almost impossible to say what you are looking at
I don't think that Spinosaurs, as a fish hunters, lived in water like crocodiles, submerged with only their eyes peering out in search for land prey. I think they behaved more like a mix between a heron and a bear, standing on shallow waters looking into it to catch passing fish.
Irritator Challengeri is a such a underrated Spinosaurid,Because of this Spinosaurid being..Sooooo,Irritating to most Dinosaur,and the Scientist who discover it,being so hard to identify as a theropod dinosaur.
I wish Henry had made it clear that type specimen was found in Brazil because going by the name of the town alone I was thinking of Portugal or Spain. Considering the related animals Baryonyx walkeri and Spinosaurus aegyptiacus and where they were found, this is logical. It wasn't until Henry mentioned the early confusion of the Irritator fossils with the Azhdarchidae that I realized the location was in Brazil.
lovely creature... i am inspired by this thats why i have made a custom of IRRITATOR for my channel its kinda lego like figure.... i love dinosaurs so much... ihope more and more people would appreciate them
I couldn’t imagine just wrenching a fossil out of the ground and then dumping some plaster on to it and sticking different pieces in different places while destroying any passibility of a greater find or pertinent age information. People suck so much so often.
Great video, irritator is underrated as hell. Can't wait for more content, you should do a video on the kakapo or takahe, just a suggestion, keep on doing what you do mate :)
Thank you, and yes, Spinosaurs, aside from Spinosaurus itself, are all quite underrated indeed! And, fun fact, I actually have a list of all the upcoming birds for the series, and the Kakapo and Takahe will be coming soon! :)
I like to go with the obvious. The sails of the Spinosaurids were SAILS. I speculate that spinos would partake in sailing races each spring, with the winners getting the females. They would sail along the river bank, tacking, turning, and taking the wind of rivals to win. The females would observe from shore, sometimes cheering on a favorite, sometimes feigning indifference. The winner would become the BSOB, or Big Spino On Beach, and the females would flock around presenting their cloaca for breeding. Yep, Spinos, like the Dimetrodons before them, were a pretty sporty set.
Anybody else having a hard time picturing swimming Spinosaurs? OK ,Irratator, sure but when he couldn't touch the bottom that huge sail on his larger relative is liable to do just that, make the creature sail away. That being said, good job on the video Henry.
@@bramsteenhoek2674 Yes, I just saw and read about that and I can now see Spiney swimming. If they could find some webbed feet they're looking for that would about cap it. However, to me he just looks a little out of place under 40 ft of water as per the animation. But then those sails, what are they for? We know why sailfish have them: for quick braking and rapid turns ... but sailfish can then fold them down until needed as otherwise they can be a serious hindrance to speed and maneuverability. Spiney would have a hard time with those in strong currents. Unless he could fold them down and erect them as needed. Like sailfish. If they could find a hinge mech of some type, ... but those would probably be soft tissue or cartilage with doesn't fossilize well.
Out of curiosity if the mass extinction of dinosaurs didn't happen and the spinosaurades went from they're semi-aquatic to full aquatic, is it possible that eventually they could lead to creatures similar to marine reptiles
Most definitely! They might have very well existed, but either didn't fossilise or simply haven't been found. Spinosaurus itself still has a lot too understood, so we'll wait and see what turns up.
If the Spinosaurid skull was evolved to allow the creature to lurk just under the water, doesn't the massive 'sail' on its back seem counter-productive? I can't see a scenario where it's able to hide like a croc while that thing is towering out of the water. Is there more to this theory?
Well...unlike Crocodiles nostrils wich are on top of the skull, spinosaurs nostrils are located on the sides of the skull meaning hed have a real hard time staying just bellow surface even without the sail. So i personaly doubt that Spinosaur stayed underwater only to bounce and catch prey. Instead i think Spinosaur probably stayed on the surface and casted a shade with his massive body and sail luring in fish. Then hed quickly catch them using his long teeth filled snout. I think Spinosaur ever really swimmed to get away from sarcosuchuses or to catch a unfortunate Dinosaur who fell into the river he inhabited and possibly when they were young. I think spinosaurs probably dont swim much when they are adults. Their tail isint very bendy nor as suited to fast swimming as crocodiles tail and someting the size of spinosaur probably coudnt swim very fast nor run really fast. Spinosaurs life style was probably more simple than we even know or may ever know. Thats atleast my theory.
Wow! at 11:12 Someone in the background is anxious to go out tonight! She put on the disco music and now she's in the bathroom doing her hair. I think I can hear her calling you to bring her a vodka....
Yes, I have. I've seen the Northern Royal albatross, Variable oystercatcher, Kaka and the White heron in person, and I'm sure to see many, many more in the future!
That ass/umption about the sagital-crest is most likely not correct . Spino. was most assuredly well camouflaged , in order to stalk fish , and avoid deadly competitors . It could not afford to advertise it's presence , lest it go hungry , and get killed ! The purpose of that crest was almost surely to protect the eyes from wildly flailing fish and small animals . Many predator dinos had horns or other projections , placed to protect their eyes . The eyes are an Achilles-Heel after all ! D.H. Addendum : The neural - spines supported a thin-hump , not a sail . The bone-structure alone makes that clear . As an otter analog , Spino often stood up , in order to see it's aquatic prey , and land-bound threats , more clearly . It had to have both tail and hump , to avoid falling forward on it's face . For a more detailed examination , read Cambridge U.'s N.S.F. thread : Spinosaurus ; what was it ? This in the New-Theories section . *Concentrate on my comments . D.H.

Thak you so much for making this video! Like my other comment, Irritator is my favorite dinosaur and this video helped me learn a lot more about it.
No problem, I'm glad you learned something new about Irritator! A really big paleontology will hopefully be out soon, so look forward to that. :)
@@HenrythePaleoGuy What do you mean by a big Paleoentology? Do you mean as in Irritator or a video?
As in a video. The first part out of 3 will be coming out as soon as I can finish it, which shouldn't be too far from now. ;)
I love the idea that Irritator was an "apex" predator! But i would still love Irritator regardless of it bieng an apex predaror or not :)

It’s very irritating
It's your mama.
I guess it's *irritating* you
how irritating
Something about this particular dinosaur really annoys me
Yeah its really irritating
Yeah...it was a specialist in catching smaller animals . It would catch you much more quickly than a T-Rex . Thylacine was like that too .

I love how when naming these things the paleontologists can spend hours,days,years finding and putting together elaborate names based on deep rooted historical words with underlining means to convey the look and/or how the animal may have acted in life.
then there are other paleontologists that are like 'Oh,i stubbed my toe in this thing's skull while digging it up,and it REALLY hurt... so i decided to name it "Stupid-penis-face-a-saurus" ,and that's just what the world is going to call it forever..
